With the 17th pick in The Phinsider Community Mock Draft, the Minnesota Vikings select Derrick Harvey, DE, Florida.
Harvey picked up 58% of the vote. He was followed by Phillip Merling (15%) and Gosder Cherilus (9%).
Here are the 5 most recent picks of our draft:
- Carolina Panthers - Rashard Mendenhall, RB, Illinois (32%)
- Chicago Bears - Chris Williams, OT, Vanderbilt
- Detroit Lions - Jonathan Stewart, RB, Oregon
- Arizona Cardinals - Leodis McKelvin, CB, Troy
- Minnesota Vikings - Derrick Hervey, DE, Florida
Next up, with the 18th pick, are the Houston Texans. For the best insight and analysis on the Texans, head over to Battle Red Blog. Below are the Texans' draft needs, courtesy of NFL Draft Countdown:
2. Outside Linebacker: A bunch of 'backers left as free agents but it wasn't like they were stars anyway. They probably need at least one starter and the depth isn't anything to write home about either
3. Safety: This team hasn't had a top safety since its inception and now it looks like Von Hutchins, Will Demps, Michael Boulware, Glenn Earl and Jason Simmons are all set to hit the market this off-season.

i gotta disagree
Cherilus would also be good but many are projecting him as a RT and Houston wants a LT. I think this pick would have to be Albert
