    Gil Brandt lists his top tier prospects.

    LINK

    Tier One (1-10 listed alphabetically)



    Eric Berry, S, Tennessee
    5-11 5/8, 211
    Smart, with excellent ball skills. Former cornerback with outstanding athleticism. High-character person.
    Sam Bradford, QB, Oklahoma
    6-4 ¼, 236
    A natural leader, athletic and very accurate. Threw 50 touchdown passes in 2008.
    Bryan Bulaga, OT, Iowa
    6-5 3/8, 314
    An outstanding run blocker in the zone blocking system. He is mean and aggressive, and has been very well coached.
    Bruce Campbell, OT, Maryland
    6-5 3/8, 314
    Has outstanding size, speed and athletic ability, though he did not play well at Maryland. He is a high risk/reward type of player.
    Jimmy Clausen, QB, Notre Dame
    6-2 5/8, 222
    A very accurate passer. He threw only four interceptions in 2009 -- and one of those was a fluke that bounced off a player's back. He can work under center or in the shotgun. Well coached by Charlie Weis.
    Rolando McClain, LB, Alabama
    6-3 3/8, 254
    Very smart, and well coached. A very competitive player, who can play all three downs. Good blitzer.
    Gerald McCoy, DT, Oklahoma
    6-4 1/8, 295
    Outstanding athlete who is very quick. He is comparable to Tommie Harris of the Bears. Plays with very good technique.
    Russell Okung, OT, Oklahoma State
    6-5 ¼, 307
    His 38-inch arms and great footwork make him an outstanding pass protector. Four-year starter in a good program. Was great in college against top pass rushers.
    Ndamukong Suh, DT, Nebraska
    6-3 7/8, 307
    Very strong and very athletic, he has outstanding quickness and a motor that never stops. He can play end if needed.
    Trent Williams, OT, Oklahoma
    6-4 5/8, 315
    Has outstanding fundamentals for the system. Well coached, he can play right or left tackle. Has a very good punch.
    I disagree on Bruce Campbell, I have him in tier two, if I were to rank by tiers. Also, keep in mind these are alphabetical. Not, numerically ranked.

    I could Spiller or Haden in Tier 1. I like that he has Thomas ranked higher than Dez Bryant, though.

      very surprising to see Campbell there...especially because of how big of a boom/bust he will be

        I'm fairly confident that Trent Williams will slide to us at 9. That's who the pick should be.

          works for me...and I agree.

            That's my hope.

              On a side note, the Rams are apparently really impressed with Colt McCoy.

              I still think they won't pass on Bradford, but if they do I am a HUGE fan of trading this year's first and next years. I'd even add in a third next season to move on up and take him. Detroit and Tampa are two teams who have expressed a willingness to trade down. If they want more picks this year, I'd give them the 9th pick, then our 3rd this year, and our first next year.

                  To get a guy who I believe will be a future pro bowler and a franchise QB, I would give up next year's first in a heart beat. If Nix and Chan feel the same way as I do about Bradford, I think they'd make the same decision.

                          I wouldn't trade up at all for Bradford, why trade up to #1 to take a guy who few people think is even the #1 player in this class?

                            I really think Trent Williams goes to Seattle at 6, he's the perfect style guy to replace Walter Jones.

                              Trent Williams, Anthony Davis, Russell Okung, just say no to Bulaga, I'm not high on him at all.
