1 San Francisco 49ers (2-14), Calvin Johnson, WR, Georgia Tech, 6-4, 235 Jr.
Alex Smith needs targets. Would be a great tandem along with Vernon Davis.

2 Houston Texans (2-14), Brady Quinn, QB, Notre Dame, 6-4, 231 Sr.
David Carr is not the answer, after he flops again this season he will be gone, making QB the #1 priority. Quinn has all the tools to be great.


3 Detroit Lions (3-13), Paul Posluszny, ILB/OLB, Penn State, 6-2, 229 Sr.
The LB core is upgraded with Simms, but not complete. Defense should be a priority. Posluszny is the best defensive prospect in the class.


4 Oakland Raiders (3-13), Joe Thomas, OT, Wisconsin, 6-8, 306 Sr.
Thomas would play RT opposite Gallery. Together they would form a great young tackle tandem.


5 New Orleans Saints (4-12), Dwayne Jarrett, WR, Southern California, 6-5 210 Jr.
Horn and Stallworth are under-achievers, and their days may be numbered in N.O. Plug in another great offensive weapon from USC.


6 Tennessee (4-12), Gaines Adams, DE, Clemson, 6-5, 260 Sr.
Adams would fit nicely in the Titans scheme, and would add more pressure on opposing QB's to take pressure off a lack-luster secondary.


7 New York Jets (4-12), Adrian Peterson, HB, Oklahoma, 6-2, 215 Jr.
With Martin on his way out, this is a no-brainer pick here, and a steal at #7.


8 Buffalo Bills (5-11), Drew Stanton, QB, Michigan State, 6-3, 230 Sr.
Stanton is a big athletic QB with alot of experience and upside. Would be the sensible pick here unless Losman finds the light.


9 St. Louis Rams (5-11), Brian Brohm, QB, Louisville, 6-4, 224 Jr.
It was rumored the Rams were in interested in Cutler last year, so expect a QB here if any of the top three are still on the board.


10 Tampa Bay Buccaneers (5-11), LaRon Landry, FS Louisiana State, 6-2, 204 Sr.
Landry is a smart instictive athletic player. He would help bolster an already decent secondary. Can play either safety position.


11 Atlanta Falcons (6-10), Brandon Meriweather, SS, Miami, 6-0, 188 Sr.
Lawer Milloy will show him the ropes before he retires. Another great safety from the U. A ball hawk who hits like a truck. Good combo.


12 Cleveland Browns (6-10), Sidney Rice, WR, South Carolina, 6-4, 191 So.
Along with Edwards and Wilson, Rice would help form one of the most promising young WR trio's in the league. Also another target for Frye.


13 Philadelphia Eagles (7-9), Patrick Willis, ILB, Mississippi, 6-2, 230 Sr.
Trotter is nearing the end. Willis is a warrior, playing most of last season with a broken arm. Another young defensive prospect for Philly.


14 San Diego Chargers (7-9), Sam Baker, OT, Southern California, 6-5, 305 Sr.
Eventually Marcus McNeill will eventually settle in at LT, with Baker on the right side San Diego would have a good pair of tackles.


15 Green Bay Packers (7-9), Marshawn Lynch, HB, California, 5-11, 217 Jr.
Lynch is a back with alot of similarities to Ahmad Green, whose tank is running dry.

16 Jacksonville Jaguars (8-8), Justin Blalock, OG/RT Texas, 6-4, 329 Sr.
Blalock is a great prospect, who would fill a hole at guard, or could play RT.


17 Washington Redskins (8-8), Kyle Young, C/OG, Fresno State, 6-5, 330 Sr.
If they choose to take advantage of the draft this year Young would be a great pick. Better prospect than Mangold was last year.


18 Arizona Cardinals (9-7), H.B. Blades, ILB, Pittsburgh, 6-0, 240 Sr.
LB is a definite need. Blades is a hitter with a nose for the ball. Suring up the LB core could be the missing piece to their puzzle.


19 Cincinnatti Bengals (9-7), Greg Olsen, TE, Miami, 6-5, 252 Jr.
Tight End is one a the few holes the Bengals have. He would be just another great target for Carson Palmer.


20 New England Patriots (10-6), Jeff Samardjiza, WR, Notre Dame, 6-5, 216 Sr.
Wide Receiver is a hole, and Samardjiza has been under Charlie Weis's wing for two seasons. Makes sense to me.


21 Minnesota Vikings (10-6), Michael Bush, HB, Louisville, 6-3, 250 Sr.
Teams like to have two good RB's, he's just too good to pass up here for the Vikings. Great value pick.


22 Chicago Bears (11-5), Zach Miller, TE, Arizona State, 6-5, 262 Jr.
Since the Bears totally forgot to draft a TE last year, and well offense for that matter. They fill a big void with Miller.


23 Miami Dolphins (11-5), Quentin Moses, DE/OLB, Georgia, 6-5, 250 Sr.
Moses would be a perfect fit here, he fills a need at OLB. He also gives Saban another SEC player. Would be a steal this late in round one.


24 Kansas City Chiefs (11-5), Jason Hill, WR, Washington State, 6-0, 210 Sr.
WR is a big need for Kansas City. Hill is the best one left at this point. Simple as that. Ginn could be an option, but Hill is more NFL ready.


25 Baltimore Ravens (11-5), Michael Griffin, FS, Texas, 6-0, 205 Sr.
Would slide over to SS and fill a big hole in the ravens secondary. Along Reed, McCallister, and Rolle could form the top secondary in the NFL.


26 Carolina Panthers (12-4), Levi Brown, OT, Penn State, 6-5, 324 Sr.
Brown would be an immediate starter at LT. great value pick that fills a hole. Big physical blocker who could help pave the way for Williams.


27 Dallas Cowboys (12-4), Ted Ginn Jr., WR Ohio State, 6-0, 170 Jr.
After T.O. the WR position drops off. Ginn is raw, but has unlimited upside. Also would double as a return man immediatly.


28 Seattle Seahawks (12-4), Josh Beekman, OG, Boston College, 6-2, 325 Sr.
Beekman can thank Minnesota for stealing Hutchings, because now he gets to be a first round pick.


29 Indianapolis Colts (13-3), Tom Zbikowski, SS, Notre Dame, 5-11, 208 Sr.
Zbikowski slides over to free safety to hide his lack of coverage skills, and take advantage of his athletic ability and knowledge of the game.


30 Denver Broncos (13-3), Frank Okam, DT, Texas, 6-5, 315 Jr.
Okam is a steal here, and will help sure up the D-line. His disrupting style of play would allow other to get to the QB.


31 New York Giants (12-4), Daymeion Hughes, CB, California, 6-2, 188 Sr.
Hughes would help sure up the secondary, and improve an improving defense.


32 Pittsburgh Steelers (14-2), Adam Carriker, DE, Nebraska, 6-6, 280 Sr.
Carriker is a physical freak who knows how to get to QB's and disrupt things. Pittsburgh doesn't pass on guys like that.
