-------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Oakland Raiders (2-14) - JaMarcus Russell, QB, LSU
2. Detroit (3-13) - Joe Thomas, OT, Wisconsin
3. Cleveland (4-12) - Brady Quinn, QB, Notre Dame
4. Tampa Bay (4-12) - Calvin Johnson, WR, Georgia Tech
5. Arizona (5-11) - Adrian Peterson, RB, Oklahoma
6. Washington (5-11) - Gaines Adams, DE, Clemson
7. Minnesota (6-10) - LaRon Landry, S, LSU
8. Atlanta (7-9) (from Houston) - Amobi Okoye, DT, Louisville
9. Miami (6-10) - Levi Brown, OT, Penn State
10. Houston (6-10) (from Atlanta) - Leon Hall, CB, Michigan
11. San Francisco (7-9) - Alan Branch, DT, Michigan
12. Buffalo (7-9) - Patrick Willis, ILB, Mississippi
13. St. Louis (8-8) - Jamaal Anderson, DE, Arkansas
14. Carolina (8-8) - Paul Posluszny, LB, Penn State
15. Pittsburgh (8-8) - Jarvis Moss, DE/OLB, Florida
16. Green Bay (8-8) - Marshawn Lynch, RB, Cal
17. Jacksonville (8-8) - Adam Carriker, DE, Nebraska
18. Cincinnati (8-8) - Lawrence Timmons, OLB, Florida State
19. Tennessee (8-8) - Ted Ginn Jr., WR, Ohio State
20. N.Y. Giants (8-8) - Aaron Ross, CB/RS, Texas
21. Denver (9-7) - Anthony Spencer, DE, Purdue
22. Dallas (9-7) - Darrelle Revis, CB, Pittsburgh
23. Kansas City (9-7) - Dwayne Jarrett, WR, USC
24. New England (12-4) (from Seattle) - Jon Beason, LB, Miami
"Needs: ILB, S, CB, OLB, RB, OT
Beason hasn't had a great postseason since tweaking his knee at the combine. Still, he's an underrated talent with the size, speed and instincts that the Patriots will be looking for in Tedy Bruschi's eventual replacement."
25. N.Y. Jets (10-6) - Greg Olsen, TE, Miami
26. Philadelphia (10-6) - Michael Griffin, S, Texas
27. New Orleans (10-6) - Chris Houston, CB, Arkansas
28. New England (12-4) - Reggie Nelson, S, Florida
"Griffin would be a better fit if he falls because he's more versatile than Nelson. Eric Weddle would also be a consideration, but I think Weddle's value is in the second- to third-round range. Nelson has very good range and playmaking potential as a center fielder-type free safety. Also remember that head coach Bill Belichick loves players from Florida because he has tremendous respect for coach Urban Meyer."
29. Baltimore (13-3) - Joe Staley, OT, Central Michigan
30. San Diego (14-2) - Robert Meachem, WR, Tennessee
31. Chicago (13-3) - Dwayne Bowe, WR, LSU
32. Indianapolis (12-4) - Justin Harrell, DT, Tennessee
