Will Davis DE Illinois is a name to keep an eye on. He has the physical tools and will blow people away at the combine but needs the production.

[draftguru151]

Kenny McKinley is at least better than Derrick Williams. Farr isn't on Miami anymore and Pettigrew should be a top 5 TE. Michael Johnson is a top 5 DE. Sintim is an OLB. Good list.

what happened to Farr?

I forgot about Johnson.

I think Sintim's size is more suited for the inside. I'm well aware that he is an OLB just think he's best suited on the inside, but Jon Copper has that right now at UVA

[Im_a_Romosexual]

Farr went to Memphis

[fischbowl]

Farr went to Memphis

Thanks (10 Char)

[bearsfan_51]

I was actually doing a preliminary list but quit. I was also including juniors so it looked a LOT different. The skill positions are terrible outside of the juniors, although that's because the good juniors almost always declare.

[Turtlepower]

Sammie Stroughter from Oregon State is a stud in both receiving and returning. I think he'll be a first round come next draft. I just love the energy in the kid.

[underscore]

Sean Lee isn't playing this year due to an ACL tear. He'll redshirt and return to college in 2009.

[villagewarrior]

As a Chiefs fan I'll be looking at some of the QBs, DEs and OTs because as of now they look to still be areas of need depending on how things go this season. As a James Laurinaitis fan, I'll be watching him because he's a beast.

Seniors Only

[Staubach12]

Harper > Painter

[bspen4]

Rudy Carpenter over Chase Daniel? Wow the only thing against Daniel is his height. Other than that good list

[Thunder&Lightning]

how does Michael Oher compare to Jake Long?

[bhaarat316]

Where is Alex D. Center from Temple.

[bspen4]

how does Michael Oher compare to Jake Long?

Much better prospect IMO

[tEk]

i was a sophomore in high school when fili graduated. yay! glad to see i know a future 1st rounder.

[bspen4]

I love the Ian Campbell as the number 1 DE. He was misused as a OLB last year which led to his sack decrease. He will be back at DE this year and should put up some monster numbers

[BamaFalcon59]

Oher blows Jake Long out of the water.

[Paranoidmoonduck]

It's hard to blame the Kansas State staff for using a kid that light at linebacker. He's a great player, but at about 235 lbs, he has even more concerns than someone like George Selvie.

[doingthisinsteadofwork]

Oher is good but I think Ciron Black will make a better LT in the NFL.

[Unbiased]

I'd rank Darren Banks 2nd or 3rd on the CB list.

[Solomon]

Good list. Some guys I would consider adding:

WR Kenny McKinnley, South Carolina
WR Arron Kelly, Clemson
WR Brandon Gibson, Washington State
TE Darius Hill, Ball State

OT Andrew Gardner, Gerogia Tech
OT Eugene Monroe, Virginia
OT Xavier Fulton, Illinois
G Jeremy Perry, Oregon State

DT Peria Jerry Mississippi

CB Alphonso Smith, Wake Forest
DB Derek Pegues, Mississippi (plays S for Bulldogs might project to CB at next level)
S Michael Hamlin, Clemson

Also I believe Vince Oghobaase is a junior. He didn't play at all in 2005 and he was a freshman All-America in 2006. I do love the ranking for him though, he is so underrated and IMO he will be the next Richard Seymour.

[JT Jag]

Antoine Caldwell will play OG at the next level.

[geaux tigers]

LSU WR D.Byrd
