Last night, most of this year's top NFL draft prospects converged at EA Sports' fourth annual premiere party held in New York City for their
NCAA Football 10 video game. The athletes made the rounds with the fans and media, effortlessly answering questions from outlets around the country. But their media training had yet to meet
Maxim's editorial prowess and hard-hitting journalism and when confronted with the daunting task of picking their favorites for our upcoming Hot 100 list, they fumbled, bumbled, and nearly blew it. But, they recovered enough to make a good showing. Here are their picks:
MARK SANCHEZFOX Sports Mock Draft Position: No. 4 pick to Seattle Seahawks
"
Taylor Swift has got to be in there. What about the girl from
Heroes,
Hayden Panettiere? Then, that girl who is the face of Estee Lauder,
Hilary Rhoda. And, as a dark horse, I'd pick—do you watch
The Office? Remember Jim's girlfriend after Pam before they got back together? She is in
I Love You, Man. Yes,
Rashida Jones. Beautiful! I could be the general manager if you guys need help, just call me up!"
AARON CURRYFOX Sports Mock Draft Position: No. 5 pick to Cleveland Browns
"
Jamila Abdul-Hakim. She's definitely No.1—my wife. With that out of the way...way,
way back in the fifth or sixth round of this draft, I'll go with someone who I've been a big fan of for a while,
Alicia Keys. Next would be
Sanaa Lathan, who played in
Love & Basketball. She is beautiful with more of a natural look. After that would be
Gabrielle Union and
Ciara. Last pick would go to
Eva Mendes—she is OK. But, for the record, the best and the most beautiful girl on that list is Jamila. Everybody else is
far back."
JASON SMITHFOX Sports Mock Draft Position: No. 3 pick to Kansas City Chiefs
"No. 1 overall pick:
Beyonce Knowles. No. 2:
Meagan Good. Wait, is she still with that running back, Thomas Jones, right? Nevermind, her spot just dropped to five. New No. 2 overall is
Rihanna. Well, if she gets rid of Chris Brown, then she is No. 2. Otherwise we drop her to fourth. Okay, so an even newer No. 2:
Mariah Carey. Woo! No. 3 overall:
Alicia Keys. That's my 1 through 5...Wait, I'm making some changes to this list. Here it is—the final list: No. 1:
Meagan Good. No. 2:
Beyonce. No. 3:
Alicia Keys. No. 4:
Mariah Carey. No. 5: ...
Oprah Winfrey, in an upset!"
ERIN ANDREWSESPN sideline reporter and sideline reporter in NCAA Football 10"I am huge
Gisele fan—walking around in these high heels right now I am channeling my inner-Gisele. I think she is amazing. She is gorgeous. I am a huge Gisele fan. I also love
Blake Lively. She is one of my favorites. If you're not watching, you are missing a great show because I am a 30-year-old who loves me some
Gossip Girl. I am a big
Britney Spears fan, to be honest with you, not too much of a closet Britney fan. But, the big joke with me and my friends is every day, all the time, Gisele. She is up there for me. I read an article about her in
Vanity Fair—she does karate, plays volleyball, and is very athletic. Who cares about Tom Brady?"
