Re: darnik44's First Round Projections My Thoughts- LaRon Landry at 5 is too high.- Jamaal Anderson, Alan Branch will both be Top 10 Picks.- Giants have a ton of money invested in Luke Petitgout and Kareem McKenzie, they won't take a Tackle in the First IMO.- Jets have More pressing needs then a Linebacker (Vilma, Thomas, Barton, Hobson) were all solid. If the board fell like that Amobi Okoye has to be the Jets Pick.- Eagles and Colts both have a long history of not taking Linebackers in the First Round, Same with Patriots and Cornerbacks and Wide Recievers. Maybe history will change, I don't know.- Troy Smith would only have gone in the First with a monster bowl Game. He's a second rounder at best right now with an outside chance he could fall into Day 2.Also, BTW, your Draft order is wrong. Chargers are locked into the 30 pick as they had the best record and 31 and 32 are the Super Bowl teams. The rest go by W/L percentage as normal.
Re: darnik44's First Round Projections Read above And on top of all of thatoz is too high, Jacksonville doesn't have a big enough need to grab him there over Moss, Moses and Griffin. Also, Blalock to Cincy doesn't make much sense, and there are plenty of better picks for Chicago and New Orleans.

Although I thought they were going to throw Whitworth in that role for next season, they could certainly stand an upgrade.
