O.K. all you Mel Kiper wannabes…here’s your chance to put your prognosticating skills to the test…and you don’t even have to make a fool of yourself on national TV in the process!
Tell us who you think the Patriots will select with their first pick in the upcoming NFL draft. The person, or people, who correctly guess the name will receive 2 Tickets to a Lowell Lock Monsters hockey game next year. Don’t worry…we will still honor the contest even if they’re not known as the Lock Monsters anymore!
To enter, send an email with your name (the real one), a valid email address, and the player you think the Patriots will select first to tpanos@lowellsun.com by noon (est.) Saturday, April 29, 2006. To avoid any confusion, make sure to list the player’s first and last name, as well as the school he attended. (Throw in the player’s position as well, if you really want to show off!)
You are also encouraged to enter your guess on this post, though you don’t have to give your real name if you don’t want to…a screen name will do just fine. That way, we can all laugh at you when you’re wrong!
Remember, only one entry per person and you must send an email with your contact info so I can get you the tickets if you win. No other disclaimers apply. Employees of the Lowell Sun, friends and family, convicted felons, Bill Belichick, Scott Pioli, anyone, anyone at all…may enter!
For you beginners out there, here's a little draft helper courtesy of the AP and LowellSun.com.
Good luck and may the force be with you!

I'd have to go with a linebacker, and since Christo has taken Greenway, and with Hawk probably going early, I'll default to Ernie Simms from Florida State.
BTW, do real sports fans care about the football draft, or just baseball?

I think that the Patriots will take Mario Williams from North Carolina. They need to replace McGinest and Williams has the athleticism to play both DE and LB.
