Patriots Will Take USC's Keith Rivers or Sedrick Ellis, Everyone Agrees

There are six players invited to take the stage at Radio City Music Hall for the NFL draft, and most mock drafts show those six players as the first six off the board.

So that means it's the Patriots, owners of the seventh pick, who could make things interesting. What will they do? Almost everyone thinks they'll take one of USC's defensive players, Sedrick Ellis or Keith Rivers. These are the betting odds at Bodog, and yes, you can bet on the NFL draft:

Who will the New England Patriots select with the #7 pick in the NFL Draft?

Keith Rivers 9/5

Sedrick Ellis 5/2

Leodis McKelvin 4/1

Branden Albert 3/1

Ryan Clady 7/1

Other 9/5

In my own mock draft I say the Patriots will take Ellis but should take Rivers, but I also wouldn't rule out one of those invited players, maybe Chris Long or Vernon Gholston, falling to No. 7. The truth is we just don't know, and that's why the draft is so fun.
