1 Oakland QB Jamarcus Russell - LSU
I'd take Quinn but Raiders seem to like the big arms.
2 Detroit QB Brady Quinn - Notre Dame
Franchise QB and will be throwing to Roy Williams, Furey and Mike Williams.
3 Cleveland trades down to #5 with Arizona for 3rd round pick
3 Arizona OT Joe Thomas - Wisconsin
Arizona needs a tackle in the worse way and deal up to do so.
4 Tampa Bay WR Calvin Johnson - Georgia Tech
TB needs a playmaker to go alongside Galloway. Galloway isn't getting any younger either.
5 Cleveland WR Ted Ginn Jr - Ohio State
Suprise pick. With Hester making so much impact on ST in Chicago the Browns take a top WR and returner and a local boy.
6 Washington CB Leon Hall - Michigan
Him and Rogers make a top cornerback team. Washington always tries to get top corners.
7 Minnesota RB Adrian Peterson - Oklahoma
Minnesota may have other needs but running back has been a need since the Robert Smith days.
8 Houston S Laron Landry - LSU
Houston needs to continue to build there defense up the middle and Landy is a playmaking safety.
9 Miami DE Jamaal Anderson - Arkansas
I've heard the Seymour comparisons and I defintely see it.
10 Atlanta DT Amobi Okoye - Louisville
Arguably the most upside in the draft Okoye should help the Falcons front line.
11 San Francisco WR Dwayne Jarrett - USC
They need a #1 WR in the worse way and in most drafts Jarrett would be the #1 WR off the board.
12 Buffalo DE Gaines Adams - Clemson
Too much talent to pass up. Him and Schobel would make a Strahan/Umenyiora type tandam.
13 St Louis DE Quentin Moses - Georgia
Just missed out on their top guy in Adams they go with Moses who had an off senior year but is exactly what the Rams are looking for.
14 Carolina WR Sidney Rice - South Carolina
Keyshawn is probably gone and they need a #2 to go alongside Smith.
15 Pittsburgh CB Marcus McCauley - Fresno State
Need to improve their secondary and McCauley is the physical corner they need.
16 Green Bay CB Darrelle Revis - Pittsburgh
Packers still need to continue to build up the defense and Revis is in a strong cornerback class otherwise he'd be the #1 CB.
17 Jacksonville OLB Paul Poslusznky - Penn State
Garrard is fine at QB. Leftwich is still there. They need help at linebacker.
18 Cincinnati DT Quinn Pitcock - Ohio State
Bengals need help on the defensive line and Pitcock will do just that.
19 Tennesee WR Robert Meachem - Tennessee
Take the local kid. They need a true scoring threat and it was down to him and the Shark.
20 NY Giants RB Marshawn Lynch - California
With Barber retiring they need Lynch to go with Jacobs. Big play threat every time he touches the ball.
21 Denver DE Victor Abiamiri - Notre Dame
Was always a good pass rusher but really improved on his run stuffing. Moving up.
22 Dallas OT Levi Brown - Penn State
If they want to keep Romo healthy they need to bulk up the line and Brown does that.
23 Kansas City WR Jeff Samarzjida - Notre Dame
Kennison is a solid #2 but they need a #1. Parker is a #3 at best. The Shark adds a big play threat to go with Gonzalez in the red zone.
24 New England DE Adam Carriker - Nebraska
Perfect fit for their scheme. Would make their front 7 even stronger.
25 NY Jets ILB Patrick Willis - Ole Miss
They need another linebacker in the 34 scheme and Willis and Vilma would make a top linebacker trio in the middle.
26 Philadelphia OLB Lawrence Timmons - Florida State
Eagles need to keep building up that linebacker core and they start with a nice value pick in Timmons.
27 New Orleans DT Demarcus Tyler - NC State
In 2 years NC State is going to have 4 1st round picks on the defensive line. Unbelievable. Saints wanted Timmons but didn't fall enough.
28 New England FB Brian Leonard - Rutgers
The versatile player the Pats crave. Leonard is by far the best fullback in the draft but he also can play running back as well. He can do it all.
29 Baltimore OG Justin Blalock - Texas
Need to get better on the offensive line and Blalock is a versatile tackle/guard.
30 San Diego S Reggie Nelson - Florida
Not really that may needs outside of WR and Boye is too much of what they alreay have. They go with a playmaking safety in Nelson.
31 Indianapolis ILB Buster Davis - Florida State
A huge need is a linebacker who can stop the run. Davis can do just that.
32 Chicago TE Greg Olsen - Miami (FL)
The last tight end taken with the last pick in the 1st round was Todd Heap. Chicago hopes Olsen is half of what Heap is. Grossman needs a top TE.
Early yet but thats what I'm going to predict very early on. Feel free to respond.
