9:55 - We're awaiting the start of Round 3 of the 2009 NFL Draft. Listening to some of the national shows this morning, most people think Jared Cook won't last very long today. He should go early in Round 3. Jamon Meredith should go fairly quickly as well.
10:05 - The Detroit Lions will pick first in the 3rd round. They need receivers for Stafford. Will they take Cook? Here are the first 10 selections in Rd. 3:
1. Lions
2. Rams
3. Chiefs
4. Bears
5. Cowboys
6. Bengals
7. Raiders
8. Jaguars
9. patriots
10. 49ers
Wait. The NFL Commissioner has announced the Lions have traded the top pick in the 3rd round to the NY Jets. Will Cook be catching passes from new QB Mark Sanchez? Hopefully, we'll have the answer soon.
10:15 - The NY Jets take Iowa RB Shonn Greene with the top pick in the 3rd rd. USC fans are familiar with him, unfortunately.
10:20 - Rams take Iowa DB Bradley Fletcher with the second pick of the 3rd round. Cook and Meredith are still waiting. 2 Hawkeyes with the first two selections in the 3rd round. KC Chiefs are next. Jon Gruden said on the NFL Network that KC needs a pass-catching TE. Is this the time for Cook. He mentioned 4 names that would fit. Cook was the second name he mentioned.
10:25 - No go for Cook. KC took Alex McGee, a DE from Purdue. That's 3 straight Big 10 players to start the third round.
10:30 - Bears take DE Jarron Gilbert from San Jose State. He was a youtube sensation for jumping out of the pool onto the cement. So, he's pretty strong in the lower body. Cowboys are next. They just took LB Jason Williams of West. Illinois. That's 4straight defensive players.
10:35 - Bengals picked Ga. Tech DE Michael Johnson with the sixth pick of the 3rd round. Five straight defensive players. Oakland takes another DE, Matt Shaughnessy of Wisconsin. Cook and Meredith are still waiting as teams make a run on defensive players.
10:45 - Another defensive player is taken. Jaguars select a DE from Temple. Seven straight defensive players here in the 3rd round. Jaguars move into the 9th spot and take a DB Derek Cox, continuing the run on defenive players. 8 in a row.
10:50 - The run of defensive players is over. 49ers take Alabama RB Glen Coffee with the 10th pick of the 3rd round. Will Cook or Meredith be the next offensive player taken? We'll see.
10:55 - Nope. Cowboys take OL Robert Brewster from Ball State. Is this guy better than Meredith? I don't know. But JM is still waiting. It must be a little bit frustrating for him to see all these OTs being picked.
11:00 - Houston goes for an O-Lineman but it's not JM. They take Alabama OG Antoine Caldwell. Another OL prospect is off the board but still no JM.
11:05 - Chargers follow by taking OG Louis Vasquez of Texas Tech. He did 39 reps at 225 pounds at the NFL Combine, so he's very strong. Gil Brandt of NFL.com is pushing Meredith on his blog, so we'll see how long before JM is taken.
11:10 - The O-Linemen are being plucked quickly but no JM yet. Pittsburgh takes OG Kraig Urbik of Wisconsin. Listening to the experts on NFL.com, he's limited physically. So, it's tough for me to believe this guy is better than JM. I wonder if questions about JM moving from OT to OG are costing him here. He acknowledged there were some bad rumors going around. 4 O-Linemen have been taken so far in the 3rd round. We're approaching the midway point of the 3rd round.
11:15 - Three more selections and still no JC or JM. We've reached the No. 19 pick in the 3rd round. WR Derrick Williams of Penn State was just taken by the Lions. They need pass catchers for Stafford.
11:20 - Pats are next. They like to get value in picks. I wouldn't be surprised if they take JC here. Nope. They pick WR Brandon Tate from UNC. Two straight WR's go in the draft. Another WR - the third in a row - was just taken by the Steelers - Mike Wallace of Ole Miss.
11:25 - NY Giants take the fourth straight WR in the 3rd round, Ramses Barden from Cal Poly.
11:30 - Vikings take the fourth SEC player in the 3rd round - CB Asher Allen of Georgia. He's the 4th Bulldog to be taken after Stafford, Moreno and Massaquoi.
11:40 - WE're approaching the No. 90 overall selection and still no JM or JC. Southern Cal WR Patrick Turner (Dolphins) and CB Lardarius Webb (Nicholls St.) are the latest players taken. Is this latter guy better than Munnerlyn?
11:45 - THERE IT IS! JARED COOK IS PICKED BY THE TENNESSEE TITANS WITH THE NO. 89 OVERALL SELECTION.
12:00 - Five players have been taken since Cook was selected 89th and still no Jamon Meredith. We're six picks away from the end of the third round.
12:05 - Since Cook was taken, there has been a run on defensive backs as we head towards the end of the third round. Three CB's and 1 S have been selected, including Jerraud Powers of Auburn and Rashad Johnson from Alabama. We're one pick away from the end of the third round.
12:15 - The third round is complete, The NY Giants took TE Travis Beckum of Wisconsin with the final selection of the 3rd round. Four Wisconsin players were taken in the third round. Still no Meredith. His stock has definitely fallen here for a guy whom many draft analysts thought would go in the second round or the third, at the latest. Now we're approaching the middle rounds.
12:20 - The fourth round has started. QB Stephen McGee from Texas A&M goes to the Cowboys with the first choice of the third round. CB Donald Washington of Ohio State goes second.
12:25 - Clemson just had their first player talken - DT Dorell Scott - by the St. Louis Rams with the third pick of the 4th round (103rd overall).
12:35 - We're six picks into the fourth round and still no JM. Arkansas C Jonathan Luigs was just taken by the Bengals with the No. 106 overall pick.
12:45 - Another OT is off the board and it's not JM. Green Bay took Eastern Michigan's T.J. Lang with the No. 109 overall pick and the ninth pick of the 4th round. Was this guy rated ahead of Meredith? I doubt it.
12:50 - The Panthers are up next with the No. 111 overall pick. Will they take Meredith to join former Gamecock Travelle Wharton on the Carolina O-Line? Nope. They take RB Mike Goodson from Texas A&M.
1:00 - San Diego took a DT from Ontario with the 13th pick of the 4th round. JM is still waiting. By this point, any number of Gamecocks could be selected. including Meredith, Kenny McKinley, E. Cook and Jasper Brinkley.
1:05 - The Lions just took a DT from Stillman College. Ouch. We're 15 picks into the fourth round. Just 1 USC player - TE Jared Cook - has been selected up to this point. Wake Forest S Chip Vaughn goes to the Saints with the 16th pick of the 4th round.
1:10 - Southern Cal has another player selected with the 17th pick in the 4th round. He's DE Kyle Moore. The Trojans have another bushel full of players taken in the NFL Draft. Their dominance of West Coast football should continue for the foreseeable future.
1:20 - D.J. Moore of Spartanburg, S.C. and Vanderbilt is finally taken by the Bears with the 19th pick of the 4th round. He was another guy some people thought might go in the second round.
1:25 - We're officially past the halfway point of the 4th round and we're still waiting for the second Gamecock player to be taken in the 2009 NFL Draft. The Bills took TE Shawn Nelson from So. Miss.
1:30 - The Patriots have traded into the No. 123 spot, the No. 23 pick in the 4th round. Will they take Meredith? They had their O-Line coach fly down to take a look at Meredith on Pro Day. Nope. The Pats take an O-Lineman but it's Rich Ohrnberger from Penn State. What's going on with Meredith? The Raiders just took WR Louis Murphy from Florida. If I recall, he had a big game v. USC.
1:40 - Panthers are up with the No. 28 pick in the 4th round. Is it time for Meredith? No. Carolina takes FB Tony Fiammetta of Syracuse. There's a guy who has lost a bunch of FB games in the last two seasons. The Orange FB program is a mess right now.
1:45 - Giants take N.C. State RB Andre Brown with the 29th pick of the 4th round. There are 7 selections left in the 4th round. Will one of those be a Gamecock?
1:50 - Another O-Lineman is taken with the 32nd pick of the 4th round and it's Seth Olsen of Iowa. We're now into the compensatory selections of the 4th round. There are 4 of those. DT Tyronne Green of Auburn is taken No. 133 overall by SD.
1:55 - Chargers take RB Gartrell Johnson from Colorado State with the No. 134 pick. Two more selections left in the 4th round and JM is still waiting. Titans and Colts have the final 2 choices. The Titans have already taken Cook. Will they take another Gamecock?
2:00 - Titans take a OT but it's Troy Kropog of Tulane. Do you think Meredith is seething by this point watching all this OTs being taken? One more pick left in the 4th round. Colts take DT Terrance Taylor from Michigan. The 4th round is over.
2:10 - Atlanta just took Furman CB William Middleton with the second pick of the 5th round.
2:15 - Chiefs take T Colin Brown with the third pick of the 5th round, so another tackle is taken before Meredith. That's 11 OT by my count taken so far in the draft.
2:20 - Another Gamecock is taken and it's WR Kenny McKinley, who is picked by Denver with the fifth selection of the 5th round and the No. 141 overall pick. Congrats to Kenny, who gets to pursue his well-deserved NFL dream.
2:40 - I just spoke with McKinley. He's very excited, obviously. He'll be flying out to Denver sometime this upcoming week. Right now, we're 12 picks into the fifth round and still no Meredith.
2:55 - Jasper Brinkley has been taken with the No. 150 overall pick by the Minnesota Vikings, so USC has now had three players taken in the 2009 NFL Draft. Brinkley was chosen with the 14th pick of the fifth round, nine picks behind McKinley. Hard to believe Meredith hasn't been picked yet.
3:10 - We're now into the back half of the fith round. Right now, 22 selections have been made with 15 to go. Two more OT were taken in the 5th round but Meredith is still waiting.
3:15 - Another OT has been taken - Fenuki Tupou of Oregon - but Meredith remains on the board.
3:25 - Jamon Meredith's wait is finally over! The Simpsonville, S.C. native was taken by the Green Bay Packers with the 26th pick of the 5th round (No. 162 overall). The 5th round has certainly been kind to the Gamecocks. McKinley, Brinkley and Meredith have all been selected in the 5th round.
3:45 - We're nearing the end of the 5th round. Two Clemson players - Chris Clemons and Michasel Hamlin - were selected on consecutive picks (No. 165-166) a few minutes ago. Right now, the only USC players left that I expect to be taken are Captain Munnerlyn and Emanuel Cook.
3:55 - We've reached the end of the 5th round. The sixth round started moments ago. Will we see Captain Munnerlyn and Emanuel Cook taken in this round? Most scouts had them pegged for the later rounds.
4:20 - We're seven picks into the sixth round and E. Cook and Munnerlyn are still on the board.
5:30 - We're nearing the end of the 6th round and no Gamecocks have been selected thus far. I saw that Clemson RB James Davis was picked 195th overall. It looks like staying in school another year didn't help me, if anything it hurt his pro chances.
5:35 - The 6th round is over. 47 selections to go, including compensatory selections, in the 2009 NFL Draft.
5:55 - Captain Munnerlyn has been selected by the Carolina Panthers in the 7th round of the NFL Draft. Pick No. 216 overall.
6:15 - The 7th round is moving along here. Right now, 14 of the 47 picks have been made, so the teams are nearly 1/3 of the way through the final round. LSU WR Demetrius Byrd was just taken by San Diego despite the fact he was severaly injured in an auto accident last week in Florida. Classy move by the Chargers.
6:35 - Three safeties have been taken in the 7th round, but one is not named Emanuel Cook. He's still waiting for his name to be called. It's looking more and more likely like Carlos Thomas, Justin Sorensen, Stoney Woodson, etrc. will have to go the free agent route.
6:40 - We've reached the halfway mark of the 7th round. 24 picks down, 23 to go. Time is running out for E. Cook.
7:00 - Surprise! CB Stoney Woodson is drafted in the 7th round, No. 238 overall by the NY Giants. Meanwhile, E. Cook is still waiting. Good for Stoney. I figured he would sign a FA contract anyways, so he'll get a shot to make a NFL roster.
7:40 - Ryan Succop is Mr. Irrelevant!! The former kicker for the Gamecocks was the 256th and final pick in the 2009 NFL Draft. The Draft is over and Emanuel Cook wa snot picked. USC has 7 players drafted, the most since 1954.
USC SELECTIONS IN NFL DRAFT:
TE Jared Cook - Tennessee Titans - 3rd Round (No. 89 overall)
WR Kenny McKinley - Denver Broncos - 5th Round (No. 141 overall)

Will South Carolina make its presence felt on Day 2 of the NFL Draft? The Gamecocks could after being shut out in the first two rounds. TE Jared Cook and OT Jamon Meredith could go quickly when Round 3 begins at 10 a.m.
