No way Matt Jones goes in 1st rd. No team is dumb enough to use a 1st rd pick on a player who is going to paly a position he never really played college.

Although his combine #s are staggering.
Not bad...I wouldn't mind getting Marlin Jackson..he played all 4 DB positions in college so even if he can't step in as a Starting Corner right away he could play some safety and allow Eugene to move back to corner...though I'm starting to think Eugene is going to be a safety for life....he's just too good at it.

Exceptions being a end going ot OLB who is physically gifted, becuase he is still going to be doing a lot of similar things. A lineman moving around on the line, i.e. a T to G could still get drafted high. QB to WR is completely different. Yes the mental aspect is much simpler, but he has no experience running routes, so he is going to need a year plus to learn the position. There is ready to play talent in first round, so you dont take a development project that is a risk.

Why do you think the Ravens would pick a LB in the first round than a WR they need so badly. They already have Tommy Polley to replace Ed Hartwell.
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (MKIV_Supra)</div><div class='quotemain'>They already have Tommy Polley to replace Ed Hartwell.</div> HAHA thats funny...Tommy Polley to replace hartwell..Polley Couldn't hold Hartwells jock....Plus I just hate rams players and wouldn't want any of their LB's even if it was for free.
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (MKIV_Supra)</div><div class='quotemain'>Why do you think the Ravens would pick a LB in the first round than a WR they need so badly. They already have Tommy Polley to replace Ed Hartwell.</div> Ware can play DE as well as OLB. Boulware is rumored to be on the trading block. And after the top 3 WRs there's a significant drop off IMO.

We've converted Hines Ward and Antwaan Randle El. Why not Matt Jones? I'd be surprised if he lasts to pick 30. If he does, I have no doubt Pittsburgh will roll the dice on him. His numbers were staggering. He's a physical specimen.
I believe that Mike Tice was going to take him with their 18th pick if he doesn't end up trading up for Mike Williams.

Your point supports my thesis.
