*The deepest position by far late in the draft is the receiver position, not many great ones in this draft but depending on how the draft goes some very good players could be around late. There are some great small fast playmakers in A. Brown, T. Brown, J. Ford, D. McCluster and B. Banks. The star potentially is Mike Williams but he could be taken in the 3rd round but I would not be surprised to see him drop. Players like B. White, C. Mitchell, Ajirotutu or C McGaha could be big time steals as well.

20)Jameel Sewell Virginia
*The second most impressive group I feel are the tight ends, some very great players could be taken late. I always love big strong blocking tight ends and there are a few of them with Byham, Boone, Eldridge, Ballard, Cottam and Piurowski. Boone especially has such outstanding athletic ability and size, much like Jason Peters coming out of Arkansas. Graham could go earlier but I could see him dropping as well potentially. Some very fine pass catching tight ends in Dickson, Slate, Peek, Cumberland and Palmer. Forgot him but Eldridge is a big time player and could be the best blocking tight end or full back in this draft, big time steal there.

16)Andrew George BYU
17)Jim Dray Stanford
18)Caz Piurowski Florida St.
After those two positions it takes a little step back in terms of quality depth. But still some talented players out there.
*Could get a big steal with Starks because he is coming off an injury, same with Johnson, both are good fast big backs. I really like Bradford and think his tough running style will make him a good player at the next level. Other good talents are Carter, James and Upchurch, all players can do a variety of things.
RB
1)James Starks Buffalo
2)Stafon Johnson USC
3)Allen Bradford USC
4)Brandon Minor Michigan
5)Delone Carter Syracuse
6)Charles Scott LSU
7)Javarris James Miami FL
8)Roy Upchurch Alabama
9)Shawnbrey McNeal SMU
*Big time players could be taken late, in terms of an athlete Geathers is a 1st round pick, huge player but has not always played that well. Basped as well is a potential freak and is very talented. Then you have strong ends in Jorgensen and Deaderick that are both fine players and Alem is a sleeper as a pass rusher. Few years back Ray Edwards was a physical built DE that dropped because of average play and now he is a star because he always had that build and these guys have that.
DE
1)Clifton Geathers South Carolina
2)Kevin Basped Nevada
3)Rahim Alem LSU
4)Brandon Deaderick Alabama
5)Broderick Stewart Vanderbilt
6)Jan Jorgensen BYU
*Big time player in Collins, could play DE in a 3/4 as well, very talented and he is a flat out steal. Same with Fitzgerald, star player, people might forget him but he is very talented. Then you have Neal who is very strong at the point of attack.
DT
1)Nate Collins Virginia
2)Jeffrey Fitzgerald Kansas State
3)Mike Neal Purdue
4)Nathan Pepper South Carolina
5)Jaron Baston Missouri
6)Abe Koroma Western Illinois
7)Mick Williams Pitt
*We all know Sylvester will drop because of his 40 time but the kid can make plays and is a great player. Could be a real steal late, same thing can be said for Stamper, Lawrence and Edds. And Coleman has great potential as an athletic linebacker.
OLB
1)Stevenson Sylvester Utah
2)Rico McCoy Tennessee
3)Phillip Dillard Nebraska
4)Ryan Stamper Florida
5)Simoni Lawrence Minnesota
6)AJ Edds Iowa
7)Harry Coleman LSU
8)Cory Reamer Alabama
*Very good value here, a lot of good solid players that are strong at the point of attack. Lee will drop because of injury history, Triplett is a flat out playmaker and should be a great pickup, same with McLaughlin.
ILB
1)Joe Pawelek Baylor
2)Sean Lee Penn State
3)Nathan Triplett Minnesota
4)Mike McLaughlin Boston College
5)Pat Angerer Iowa
6)Micah Johnson Kentucky
7)Adam Dunn Pitt
8)Ryan Reynolds Oklahoma
*Not a great selection late after all the good corners get picked up earlier. Lewis is one that might slip through the cracks, same with Virgil, he is a very good player. Verner is small but his quickness could do some things and guys like Chancellor underachieved but have some physical ability.
CB
1)Myron Lewis Vanderbilt
2)Stephan Virgil Virginia Tech
3)Alterraun Verner UCLA
4)Brandon Ghee Wake Forest
5)Traye Simmons Minnesota
6)Sherrick McManis Northwestern
7)Chris Chancellor Clemson
8)Cassiue Vaughn Ole Miss
*Burnett is the big one, he could easily drop coming out early, but he is a good player just came out at the wrong time, given time to develop he could be very good. They will say guys like Coleman and Harris cannot cover, but both are strong in the box and are smart players, especially Coleman. Then the two Northwestern safeties should be fine pickups late.
SS
1)Morgan Burnett Georgia Tech
2)Brad Phillips Northwestern
3)Kurt Coleman Ohio State
4)Will Harris USC
5)Brendan Smith Nortwestern
*Some very good players here, I think guys like Johnson are big time talents that get no attention at all. Woodall is a stud but again because of the depth at the top he will drop a little, still is a fine player. Morley is the big steal here, sure has issues behind him but he is a great safety potentially if his head is on straight.
FS
1)Robert Johnson Utah
2)Justin Woodall Alabama
3)Van Eskridge East Carolina
4)Aaron Webster Cincinnati
5)Demetrice Morley Tennessee
6)Josh Pinkard USC
*Depends on who drops, but some solid players here, Robinson would be a good value late that is for sure. J. Brown and Perrilloux have great athletic ability and upside as project quarterbacks. Lewis is an interesting talent and Reesing would be a wonderful third string quarterback, is far better than past career third stringer Brooks Bollinger.
QB
1)Zac Robinson Oklahoma State
2)Levi Brown Troy
3)Sean Canfield Oregon State
4)Jarrett Brown West Virginia
5)Ryan Perrilloux Jackson State
6)Taddeus Lewis Duke
7)Todd Reesing Kansas
8)Kevin Craft UCLA
Now I have not covered them all but here are the players that stood out to be that could very easily be around come the 4th, 5th, 6th or 7th round.
