[SeanTaylorRIP]

I'll help you out ERU!!!: I'll give you a top 10. Just for you ERU. Stafford I have to give a WTF to you lol. C'mon Nate Davis and Bomar. C'mon man.

QB: Stafford is the class here. Has the big time arm and physical attributes. Personally he is just 7th on my overall rankings behind Eugene Monroe, Aaron Curry, Brian Orakpo, Michael Crabtree, Jason Smith, and Andre Smith. I like Sanchez in a WCO. I love Freeman and think he has the tools to be a first rounder. Big dude with a big time arm. Can look like Mcnabb at times, but Rohan Davey at others. Brian Johnson is a guy who I am puzzled with why he isn't being given a chance when jokers with noodle arms like Pat White and Graham Harrell are.
1) Matthew Stafford
2) Mark Sanchez
3) Josh Freeman
4) Nate Davis
5) Rhett Bomar
6) Cullen Harper
7) Drew Willy
8) Nathan Brown
9) Hunter Cantwell
10) Brian Johnson

RB: Shady is my #1, love his explosion and all around game. Feel as if Beanie is overrated. Love Andre Brown and think he will be a steal. Devin Moore is an explosive back who will be this years poor mans version of Chris Johnson. Make that homeless version. Love Cedric Peerman as he runs hard.
1) Shady McCoy
2) Knowshon Moreno
3) Beanie Wells
4) Donald Brown
5) Andre Brown
6) Shonne Greene
7) Rashad Jennings
8) Devin Moore
9) Javon Ringer
10) Cedric Peerman

FB: Quinn Johnson is the class for me. I think he has Mike Sellers potential. The only FB here who I like as a potential dominating FB in the league.
1) Quinn Johnson
2) Tony Fiametta
3) Brannan Southerland
4) Will Ta'ufo'ou
5) Eric Kettani

WR: Crabs is #1 of course, Nicks if you have read my other posts in this team board you know why I love him. You know I love DHB, but I actually also love Maclin and Harvin especially my boy from VA beach. Brandon Tate will be a real steal for someone and I think Marko Mitchell is a big time sleeper and potential Chad Johnson type player.
1) Michael Crabtree
2) Hakeem Nicks
3) Darrius Heyward-Bey
4) Percy Harvin
5) Kenny Britt
6) Marko Mitchell
7) Brandon Tate
8) Derrick Williams
9) Mohammed Massaquoi
10) Jarrettt Dillard

TE: Love Pettigrew, he's like an extra OT. Beckum will be a steal for someone in the Dallas Clark type role Shawn Nelson will surprise and James Casey could have a Chris Cooley type impact in the league. Not crazy over Cauffman like most. Anthony Hill will find a place as a good blocker and solid receiver.
1) Brandon Pettigrew
2) Travis Beckum
3) Shawn Nelson
4) James Casey
5) Chase Cauffman
6) Cornelius Ingram
7) Anthony Hill
8) Jared Cook
9) John Phillips
10) Ryan Purvis

OG: Duke is the only guard to write home about. I love Tyronne Greene as a poor man's Ben Grubbs. Herrman Johnson is so overrated. He's big but that's all. Will try to play RT as well but he's just slow with a terrible center of gravity.
1) Duke Robinson
2) Tyronne Greene
3) Trevor Canfield
4) Andy Levitre
5) Herrman Johnson
6) Cedric Dockery
7) Kraig Urbik
8) Travis Bright
9) Andy Kemp
10) Ryan Stancheck

C: As far as centers go Mack is my clear #1. Unger might get drafted higher because of versatility but he screams Ryan Cook to me. He is not real stout for a center. Mack is a true center who is a road gradder and blocks with a mean streak. Edwin Williams is my sleeper center as he's very physical.
1) Alex Mack
2) Max Unger
3) Antonie Caldwell
4) Edwin Williams
5) Eric Wood
6) Jonathan Luigs
7) A.Q Shipley
8) Jon Cooper
9) Alex Fletcher
10) Ryan Schuman

OT): Eugene is the best for me. Most natural LT, but I think Jason Smith is hot on his tracks. Andre Smith I think is a potential perennial all pro RT which is why he would be great as a Raven but almost entirely unlikely. Oher has the tools but is inconsistent. Jason Watkins really impresses me.
1) Eugene Monroe
2) Jason Smith
3) Andre Smith
4) Michael Oher
5) Eben Britton
6) Jason Watkins
7) Jamon Merideth
8) Tony Kropog
9) Phil Loadholt
10) William Beatty

NT: Raji I think can definitely be more than just a NT. I think he should be a top 15 pick. He is big and can penetrate. Ron Brace is probably the most pure NT in the draft.
1) BJ Raji
2) Ron Brace
3) Terrance Taylor
4) Sammie Lee Hill
5) Antonio Dixon

DT: Peria really penetrates which I like as well as Vance Walker. Mitch King is interesting as he may take a shot at 34 DE or maybe even ILB ala Lavon Kirkland or Jarrett Johnson.
1) Peria Jerry
2) SenDerrick Marks
3) Vance Walker
4) Darryl Richard
5) Mitch King

34 DE: Ziggy I think could be the #1 34 DE when all is said and done. Him and Fili are big but have awesome first steps and can really chase down the QB. Jarron Gilbert and Clinton McDonald are two huge big time 34 DE sleepers. Ricky Jean has Trevor Pryce potential if he gets his ish together.
1) Tyson Jackson
2) Evander "Ziggy" Hood
3) Fili Maola
4) Jarron Gilbert
5) Ricky Jean-Francois
6) Clinton McDonald
7) Dorrell Scott
8) Will Johnson
9) Rashaad Jackson
10) Henry Melton

DE: Weak if you take out the 34 DE and 34 OLB's but I really like Sidbury. Long arms and good pass rushing skills. Potential small school sleeper ala Osi Umenyora. Robert Ayers stock is on the rise big time.
1) Connor Barwin
2) Paul Kruger
3) Lawrence Sidbury
4) Robert Ayers
5) Will Davis
6) Kyle Moore
7) Matt Shaugnessy
8) Orion Martin
9) Jeremy Navarre
10) Maurice Evans

34 OLB: As mentioned below I think Orakpo would make a better 43 DE but if we draft him he'll be a 34 OLB where I think he would do well and get 8+ sacks every season. Sintim I love and will be a best 34 backer. Everette and Larry English have potential to be all pro 34 OLB's like James Harrison. Maybin is interesting as he is fast and can get the QB but is too one dimensional. He's the one 34 OLB here who has no potential whatsover IMO to be an NFL DE in any scheme at all. Kevin Akins and Nic Harris are two intersting guys who could play OLB or in the box safetys.
1) Brian Orakpo- I also like him as a 43 DE but since we run a 34 if we drafted him he'd be playing OLB in a Suggs type role.
2) Clint Sintim
3) Everette Brown
4) Larry English
5) Aaron Maybin
6) Michael Johnson
7) Tyrone McKenzie
8) Brian Cushing
9) Cody Brown
10) Kevin Akins/Nic Harris

OLB: Aaron Curry is my #1 overall prospect. The kid will be a beast, can play any LB position. Also love Marcus Freeman. Not a Clay Matthews fan.
1) Aaron Curry
2) Marcus Freeman
3) Zach Follet
4) Clay Matthews
5) Deandre Levy
6) Kaluka Maivia
7) Victor Butler
8) Brian Toal
9) Moise Fokou
10) Jonathan Cassillas

ILB: I am not a huge fan of Rey because he sucks at taking on blocks but on the Ravens I think he would be a beast. Beckwith is stout as is Mckillop. Appleby is a guy with lots of 34 ILB experience and I think is similar to Larry Foote. I hate Lauriniitis like Mauluga but doesn't even have that nose for the ball or pursuit like Rey.
1) Rey Mauluga
2) Darry Beckwith
3) Scot McKillop
4) Antonio Appleby
5) James Lauriniitis
6) Jasper Brinkley
7) Dave Phillistin
8) Worrell Williams
9) Gerald McRath
10) Dannell Elerbe

CB: I pray for Vontae or Kevin Barnes. Although all of these guys really would be great fits for us.
1) Malcolm Jenkins
2) Alponso Smith
3) Vontae Davis
4) DJ Moore
5) Kevin Barnes
6) Darius Butler
7) Sean Smith
8) Mike Mickens
9) Macho Harris
10) Deangelo Smith

S: Delmas is such a little beast and I think should be a first rounder. He is similar to Bob Sanders. William Moore if he returns to junior year form could be a second rounder with top 10 potential. Love Derek Pegues but he's undersized.
1) Louis Delmas
2) William Moore
3) Rashad Johnson
4) Patrick Chung
5) Michael Hamlin
6) Derek Pegues
7) David Bruton
8) Chip Vaughn
9) Courtney Greene
10) Trimane Goodard

P:Huber I think will last as an NFL punter
Kevin Huber- Only one worth drafting but who cares we have Koch.

K: Definitely need to at least look at a kicker. Sam Swank reminds me of Matt Stover the most. Accurate leg but not the strongest. He also valuable if your punter gets hurt because he doubled well at Wake Forest as punter and Kicker although kicking is where he will make a roster.
1. Graham Gano
2. Sam Swank
3. Jose Martinex
4. Pat McAfee
5. Obi Egekeze!!!!! Nah just playing but no 5th stands out to me. Louis Sadoka sucks.

LS:
I don't effing know.
