Big Ben to the Cardinals?

No, this is not a rumour, it's a game

A Danish NFL-website has covered the draft since 2004 and now they're making a mock draft for this year's draft - with all the present needs but with the players from the first round of the past seven drafts. They're not looking at their potential from back when they were drafted but at how good they are now.

This is the mock draft so far:

Panthers: Aaron Rodgers

Broncos: Ndamukong Suh

Browns: Philip Rivers

Bengals: Larry Fitzgerald (not bad!)

Cardinals: Ben Roethlisberger

Link: Draftday.dk mock draft 2004-2010

What do you think?

My oppinion: Major upgrade, sure, but it might take a ring to forget February 2009

They didn't mention any alternatives, but who comes to my mind are players like Matt Ryan, DeMarcus Ware, Darrelle Revis, Joe Thomas, Patrick Willis or perhaps even Chris Johnson or Adrian Peterson

Who would you have picked?

I voted yes

Because he’s a good QB, but we could’ve taken Tom Brady, or Peyton Manning, or Matt Ryan, or anyone. They’re all good.

Not Brady or Manning

They have to be drafted in the first round in 2004-2010

We are red, we are white, we are Danish Dynamite!

He's better than what we got now but not a major upgrade.

Outside of one drive in his career (that one hurt…) he hasn’t really done anything. He’s not gonna lead the league in touchdowns or yards. Plus that Pitt team did just as good without him at the helm last year. To me he’s just a product of everyone else around me is great and is making me look a lot better than I actually am.

To me, I’d rather have Matt Ryan or Sam Bradford leading my team.

Not a major up[grade...

Nevermind his 2 SB rings!! LOL You might discount them, but I sincerely doubt that Whiz would do so…

You've been Stroh'd™!!!

No, he is not flashy...

But there are hardly any other QBs I would pick to lead in a crucial drive.

Like the Cardinals? Revenge of the Birds is where to go.
Like Arizona Sports in general? SB Nation Arizona is where you'll get it all.

Are you kidding?

He’s got more rings than Manning, he’s had several clutch drives in his career, and who cares if he is not going to lead the league in passing, I’d say two rings > multiple NFL MVP awards. Not to mention the man knows how to play behind a sieve of an offensive line.
