April 24, 2005 NLScouting.com: Day 1 Review and Day 2 Preview BY: John Murphy *We will have staff members in attendance at the NFL Draft, starting at 10:00AM Sunday, please feel free to provide us with a contact number, email, IM or any/all other ways to communicate with us throughout the weekend, especially on Sunday afternoon in the later rounds and then leading to the all important 1-2 hours following the draft when PFAs are being contacted and signed... one of the available IMs for our staff will be draftjm13... as well as calling (504) 415.9979. *For those who have not followed or received the reports during the previous three drafts... during and after the DRAFT... you can send your prospect information (john@nlscouting.com) that will be immediately sent out to all 32 NFL Teams... the example method for this process will be as follows: (School), (Position), (Name), (HT, WT, workout results and your (agent) best contact info either phone or email)... last year alone over 70 of the profiles that were sent out between rounds 6, 7 and post-draft saw the players be drafted, signed or added to a team's rookie mini-camp. *An updated version of the "TEAM NEEDS" chart will appear in TODAY'S report... it will be made available again post-draft in preparation for PFA and FA signings... it is updated as of the first three rounds completed today and posted as of 11:30pm Saturday night. *Any/all media requests for observations, player notes, draft pick reviews or profile/bio info on those players selected by your individual team can all be sent to john@nlscouting.com... please include your deadline or time frame, so they can all be addressed accordingly. 2005 NFL DAY TWO DRAFT PICK BREAKDOWN: Here is a look at how each team's crop of draft picks breaks down for the upcoming second day of the NFL Draft... we have put the number of "Day Two" draft choices in parentheses next to each team's name... what this does is help you get an idea of when and where a team could look to move up or down during the draft... if your post-draft dinner plans get delayed you will be able to blame PHILADELPHIA, as they own three of the final ten choices in the seventh round of the draft (#245, #247 and #252)... oddly enough Philadelphia, New England, St. Louis and San Francisco will basically own the clock between picks #245 and #255, as they combine to own 9 of the final 10 selections of this year's draft... conversely, Green Bay (#180), Detroit (#184) and NY Giants (#186) will be able to packup early, as their final draft choices are in the sixth round. Arizona (3) 111, 168, 226 Atlanta (5) 128, 160, 163, 201, 241, Baltimore (4) 124, 158, 213, 234 Buffalo (4) 122, 156, 197, 236 Carolina (6) 121, 149, 169, 171, 189, 207 Chicago (4) 106, 140, 181, 220 Cincinnati (4) 119, 153, 190, 233 Cleveland (4) 103, 139, 176, 217 Dallas (5) 109, 148, 208, 209, 224 Denver (2) 200, 239 Detroit (1) 184 Green Bay (5) 115, 125, 126, 143, 180 Houston (4) 114, 151, 188, 227 Indianapolis (6) 129, 135, 165, 173, 202, 243 Jacksonville (4) 123, 157, 194, 237 Kansas City (7) 116, 138, 147, 187, 199, 229, 238 Miami (4) 104, 138, 162, 216 Minnesota (4) 120, 154, 191, 219 New England (7) 133, 145, 170, 195, 206, 246, 255 New Orleans (4) 118, 152, 193, 232 NY Giants (2) 110, 186 NY Jets (5) 127, 161, 198, 230, 240 Oakland (4) 182, 185, 212, 214 Philadelphia (10) 102, 132, 146, 167, 172, 175, 211, 245, 247, 252 Pittsburgh (5) 131, 166, 204, 228, 244 San Diego (4) 130, 164, 177, 242 San Francisco (7) 137, 174, 205, 215, 223, 248, 249 Seattle (5) 105, 159, 196, 235, 254 St. Louis (8) 117, 134, 155, 192, 210, 231, 250, 251 Tampa Bay (8) 107, 141, 144, 178, 203, 221, 225, 253 Tennessee (7) 108, 113, 136, 142, 150, 179, 218 Washington (3) 112, 183, 222 NFL TEAM NEEDS (As of 4/24/05 -- RT means return man): Positions that are now in (BOLD) print means that they were potentially filled during the first three rounds of the draft, but will remain listed, since it may still be an area that can be addressed for depth purposes on "Day Two"... also, positions listed in parenthesis means that the team went outside the recognized "Team Needs" area or drafted a player at a certain position more than once during the first day of the draft.

(I) get the chance to go learn from one of the best ever at the position I hope to play (in the NFL) one day, so you can't ask for a much better situation then that... (I) am just relieved that it is all over", explained Aaron Rodgers (California, QB) after spending nearly five hours in the green room before being selected by the Green Bay Packers at #24 of the first round.
