One name missing here is Willie Van De Steeg. Childress said openly he would sign him as a free agent if he didn’t get drafted. As a native Minnesotan and a Gopher, it will be good PR for the Vikes if they take him in the seventh, and Van De Steeg will have as good a chance of making the team as any seventh rounder might, especially as he is a very high energy player.
The sleepers and the last rounders always intrique me. This year drafts has some good and and great prospects. Another name missing from this list that I project to go in the later rounds is Jermyah Graves #63 a USC transfer to Albany State University of GA who stands 6″foot and a half; 238 lb runstopper, that would be a definite asset to a few teams. Graves is a quick DT/ and one of P. Carroll’s boys straight out of Canton, McKinley of Ohio. Tampa Bay, The Browns, Panthers… just to name a few could use his size, agility, maturity and quickness to their advantage. I project a late round draft for this guy, but 1st and a great surprise on the field.
you do not have the correct draft posistions for the browns. 2 in 5th not 3. 2 in 6th and 7th rounds. plus to many reaches not enough d backs. holmgren says minimum 3 d backs through draft anf free agency
excellent job… i have to say i completely agree with almost everything you have on here… i think someone will pull the trigger a lot earlier on jimmy graham… i also think the colts will look to get more depth at safety since bob sanders is always sitting on the bench and melvin bullitt can’t tackle. i am also glad to see that someone else sees the potential of a.j. edds… big body with speed to play olb… this year is gonna be fun for the draft… a lot of talent in all positions
I didn’t go through and completely analyze the draft, but what I did looked pretty good for the most part. The one thing that I did go through and check was the 49ers picks, being a 49ers fan. I like the picks, for the most part. Two issues that I have with the 49ers picks. First of all, part of the reason that everyone has the 49ers taking Spiller (right or wrong) is his ability to return kicks….a huge need for the 49ers. I’m not sure where that comes in with any of your picks. And the second thing, I’m not sure about the Toby Gerhart pick in the 3rd. Isn’t Gerhart the same type of runner that Gore and Coffee are? I think if they go RB, they go for the Spiller/Best type of player that offers the homerun threat.
