True. Very few blue-chippers in that top 10.

No one player is worth it when we can fill a couple of needs with what seems to be players of equal value/talent.

A lot of mocks have us taking LaMarr Woodley from Michigan with one of our # 1 picks.
Is he worth it for us?

IIRC, Leonard is Rutgers' all-time leading scorer and receiver.

Rutgers was touting him as a potential Heisman candidate over the summer, and then Ray Rice took over as their main star, so to speak; Leonard handled it about as well as you could possibly expect. In my mind, it's pretty easy to picture him with Flying Elvis on his helmet.

Seriously, though, the Pats are going to have to replace some of their current RB stable in the next couple of years (Dillon's tank may not be empty, but it's certainly less than half-full), and Leonard would, I think, go a long way in doing that, enough so that I can say I would have no problem with the Pats using a first for him, if that's what it would take.

use a first and forget the defense and WR position? sweet....

Someone(I believe Rook) has watched him a lot this year. And, doesn't
think he has the speed to pressure the qb from the edge. Will depend on his workout. A.Spencer -Purdue could move himself up to that area. Could solve our lb needs in free-agency. Sign A.Thomas and start him alongside Bruschi. Keep TBC as top backup at olb. Doubt if either happens. Probably keep Seau and draft an olb. If that's the case, we really do need to get younger at ilb. I haven't sat down and watched Ole Miss play. But, P.Willis might be one of our firsts.



Back to topic. L.Landry from LSU. Only way that could probably happen is if Seattle loses out and misses the playoffs.

I didn't say I would trade both first rounders, nor did I say that I would just blindly use a first either. But don't forget that a good O would help keep the D off the field, which would help them.

Besides, as has been stated many times before, Belioli draft for value, not need. At this point, as long as they don't draft a QB or a K or a P in the first round, I'm inclined to give them the benefit of the doubt.

lets not be like the Colts..offense we need an LT or a WR and TE if Graham leaves. simple as that.

we have a good offense..will get better with consistentcy and experience. build a better D. look @ Ravens..crazy D decent O. they are doing welll..Chargers have 2 offensive weapons really..the WRs arent that good..Gates and LT and a young line.

we have Watson-Maroney and a young line but defensivly they have speed at LB ..fast 3-4 group. their secondary doesnt stand out but their front 7 does the work and makes everyone in secondary look better. so we need speed @ LB..a DB for depth and future starter would be nice too.

in first round..i would really want
Johnson
Adams
but they are out of reach

so Nelson, Landry, Willis, Hall would be great for me

South Carolina redshirt soph Sidney Rice is a stud WR. If he comes out this year he will likely go late in first round. If he stays he will probably be top 10 in 2008. I hate to take a WR in first, but this kid may be as good as Johnson - big, fast, good hands, good route runner.......Another South Carolina player to watch is junior MLB Jasper Brinkley - this kid is a PLAYER!!! ALL-SEC in first year with SC. He'll probably stay in school, but if he does come out, I would take him as early as round two or three....

My vote is for Patrick Willis, the ILB. This guy can come in and play a bit, while also learning from Tedy, Vrabel, etc.

Michael Griffin or Woodley would also be nice pieces to add to this D.

A WR can be had in the 2nd or 3rd rd., as well as a RB to eventually team with 39.
