1. Oakland: JaMarcus Russell, QB, LSU
The Raiders are starting over at quarterback -- again. They could go with Notre Dame's Brady Quinn, but Russell's off-the-charts physical skills and arm strength give him enough of an edge to rank as the No. 1 quarterback in the draft. His massive frame is a plus, but his weight at the NFL Combine (265 pounds) was about 10 pounds heavier than the Raiders or any team would prefer. Of course, given their unpredictable history, the Raiders could go with a different position. Their draft board, like that of many other teams, might very well show Georgia Tech wide receiver Calvin Johnson at the top.

2. Detroit: Joe Thomas, OT, Wisconsin
The Lions will be tempted to use their first pick on yet another receiver, especially after Johnson's highly impressive showing at the Combine. General Manager Matt Millen also could give serious thought to selecting one of the top two quarterbacks available (Russell or Quinn) or Clemson defensive end Gaines Adams, another prospect who gave a strong Combine showing. But of all of their holes, the most logical for them to plug with this choice is offensive tackle. Thomas, who is a superb athlete, is the best at the position in this year's college crop and should be a fixture on the Lions' line for many years to come.

3. Cleveland: Adrian Peterson, RB, Oklahoma
Peterson is remarkably talented, offering tremendous burst and explosiveness. He is capable of making an offense instantly better, and that is the sort of help the Browns desperately need. Peterson helped himself with an impressive performance at the Combine, but his injury history is a concern. It might be enough of a concern for the Browns to consider Quinn, an Ohio native who wants to play in Cleveland, or Johnson or perhaps the draft's best defensive tackle, Michigan's Alan Branch.

4. Tampa Bay: Calvin Johnson, WR, Georgia Tech
Although the Buccaneers have multiple pressing needs, Jon Gruden pretty much has a one-track mind when it comes to identifying the best way to improve his team. In Gruden's book, that way is to acquire a dynamic playmaker on offense. Johnson fits that description perfectly. The Bucs' coach is feeling some heat to make his team significantly better, and Johnson would figure to make a great complement to the winner of the quarterback battle between free-agent Jeff Garcia and incumbent Chris Simms.

5. Arizona: Gaines Adams, DE, Clemson
Defense should be the Cardinals' focus, even though they desperately need help on their offensive line and their new coach is offensive-minded Ken Whisenhunt. Adams, who has considerable speed and athleticism, looks as if he would be the best player left on the board at this point and, therefore, impossible to ignore.

6. Washington: Jamaal Anderson, DE, Arkansas
The Redskins need a defensive lineman that can bolster their run defense as well as rush the passer. Anderson is the most complete end in this year's college crop.

7. Minnesota: Brady Quinn, QB, Notre Dame
Brad Childress enters his second draft still searching for a franchise quarterback. Having played in an NFL-style offense and received NFL-level coaching at Notre Dame, Quinn figures to be ready to play as a rookie. He didn't take part in Combine drills, but threw the ball fairly well during his workout at Notre Dame's March 4 Pro Day. If the Raiders don't make Quinn the No. 1 overall pick, he should be available here.


LaRon Landry's 4.35 in the 40-yard dash at the Combine was second fastest among DBs.
8. **Atlanta: LaRon Landry, S, LSU
New coach Bobby Petrino wants to add size and strength to his offensive line, so Penn State tackle Levi Brown is a possibility. But Landry would give them the very best player at a position of need and one of the top prospects in the draft.

9. Miami: Alan Branch, DT, Michigan
The Dolphins could go a lot of ways here. Quinn's a distinct possibility if he slips this far. If not, the Dolphins likely will address their aging defense. Penn State linebacker Paul Posluszny makes sense, too, because linebacker is a crying need. But if the highly versatile Branch -- who can play end in a 4-3 scheme or nose tackle/defensive end in a 3-4 -- is available, the Dolphins would figure to grab him.

10. **Houston: Levi Brown, OT, Penn State
The Texans have who they believe is the right quarterback to run Gary Kubiak’s offense in former Falcons backup Matt Schaub. In order to get the desired production from him, they need people to keep him upright, which is something Brown should help them achieve.

11. San Francisco: Jarvis Moss, DE, Florida
Moss is an excellent athlete who has the makings of an explosive and highly productive pass rusher, just the sort of addition that Mike Nolan wants to make to his front seven.

12. Buffalo: Marshawn Lynch, RB, California
After shipping Willis McGahee to Baltimore, the Bills have a crying need at running back. If they determine they don't have a satisfactory replacement for Nate Clements, they could go with Michigan cornerback Leon Hall. The Bills also will likely consider Mississippi inside linebacker Patrick Willis to replace another free-agent loss, London Fletcher.

13. St. Louis: Amobi Okoye, DT, Louisville
Despite being only 19 years old, Okoye has four years of collegiate experience. He can be the stout run-stuffing presence the Rams desperately need.

14. Carolina: Adam Carriker, DE, Nebraska
For someone who stands 6-foot-6 and weighs 298 pounds, Carriker moves extremely well, as he demonstrated with an impressive showing in the 20-yard shuttle at the Combine.

15. Pittsburgh: Charles Johnson, DE, Georgia
Johnson has enough talent, to go along with an exceptional work ethic, to make him a good fit in the diversified defensive scheme of new coach Mike Tomlin.

16. Green Bay: Kenny Irons, RB, Auburn
After losing Ahman Green to Houston in free agency, the Packers need a running back. Irons is a superb athlete with excellent acceleration and elusiveness.

17. Jacksonville: Ted Ginn Jr., WR, Ohio State
The Jaguars will be thinking defense, but they would have a hard time resisting this pick if he's still on the board. Ginn didn't work out at the Combine and there is concern over the foot injury he suffered in the national championship game. Ginn still should have no problem validating the tremendous speed he showed for the Buckeyes, but his receiving skills need work. At the very least, he should make an immediate impact as a return specialist.

18. Cincinnati: Leon Hall, CB, Michigan
Hall soared to the top of his position with a 4.39-second 40-yard dash at the Combine, and has great character. He should make a strong contribution immediately.

19. Tennessee: Robert Meachem, WR, Tennessee
The Titans desperately want to add a receiver to Vince Young's arsenal. Meachem greatly improved his draft status by running a 4.39 40 at the Combine and putting on an impressive display in pass-catching drills.

20. N.Y. Giants: Paul Posluszny, OLB, Penn State
Although Posluszny didn't show blazing speed, he worked out better than expected at the Combine. His intelligence and versatility make him a good fit in any defensive scheme. His unselfish attitude also makes him the kind of player that Tom Coughlin loves to coach.

21. Denver: Anthony Spencer, DE, Purdue
Spencer offers tremendous quickness to go along with superb instincts and intelligence. He could be switched to outside linebacker. Either way, his athleticism is perfect for the Broncos' scheme.



22. Dallas: Darrelle Revis, CB, Pittsburgh
Revis, who also can contribute as a return specialist, shows good coverage skills and has the size and strength to help against the run. If new coach Wade Phillips can plug in Revis as a starter right away, he could move veteran cornerback Anthony Henry to free safety.

23. Kansas City: Dwayne Bowe, WR, LSU
Bowe is a big, strong receiver who has the toughness to catch the ball in a crowd. His ability to run precise routes is an attribute that will likely make him a significant force as a rookie, especially if he is working with veteran quarterback Trent Green.

24. New England: Patrick Willis, ILB, Mississippi
Willis shows excellent instincts and is a superb tackler, qualities that would seem to make him right at home in a complex scheme that needs some youth and depth at inside linebacker.

25. N.Y. Jets: Greg Olsen, TE, Miami
After an impressive Combine performance, Olsen might already be off the board by this point. But his speed and athleticism would make him an excellent addition and provide an added dimension to the Jets offense.

26. Philadelphia: Aaron Ross, CB, Texas
The 6-0, 193-pound Ross has the size and strength to effectively jam receivers at the line. He also has plenty of speed to hold up well in man-to-man coverage, which should allow him to make an immediate impact.

27. New Orleans: Marcus McCauley, CB, Fresno State
McCauley has an impressive combination of good size (6-0, 200 pounds) and excellent speed, which he demonstrated by running a 4.39 40 at the Combine. He should help the Saints' efforts to cut down on giving up big plays, which happened too often in the playoffs.

28. **New England: Reggie Nelson, S, Florida
Nelson, who has good speed and athleticism, fills an obvious need for the Patriots. With some added bulk and strength, he could be an exceptional player for many years to come.

29. Baltimore: Justin Blalock, OG, Texas
The Ravens offensive line is getting old. Blalock would be a quality addition because of his power and aggressiveness, which he uses particularly well in run-blocking.

30. San Diego: Dwayne Jarrett, WR, USC
Jarrett could have problems consistently gaining separation against NFL cornerbacks, but he has been a dynamic playmaker in a program that has prepared him well for the next level.

31. Chicago: Michael Griffin, S, Texas
The Bears' lack of depth at safety was never more visible than in the Super Bowl, when Colts receiver Reggie Wayne was often left by himself on deep routes. Griffin is an outstanding athlete with plenty of agility to turn and run. He's also big (6-1-plus, 207 pounds), strong and a willing hitter near the line of scrimmage.

32. Indianapolis: Lawrence Timmons, OLB, Florida State
Timmons was a highly productive collegiate player who, if he falls this far, looks as if he would be the best choice at this point to replace Cato June, who signed with Tampa Bay

**Projected Trades***
The Redskins trade the 6th pick to the packers for the 16th pick, 78th pick and Kabeer Gbaja Biamila. (**The reskins need more picks and this is the perfect opportunity for them)

The Broncos trade the 21st pick, 70th pick to the pittsburgh steelers for the 15th pick. (the broncos always make big deals on draft day, no surprise)

Detroit Trades the #2 pick to the Falcons for the #8, 39, 44 picks and a 2008 3rd rounder.

The Jaguars trade the 48th and 109th pick to the Browns 36th pick.



1 Raiders JaMarcus Russell LSU QB Biggest arm in the draft

2 Falcons Calvin Johnson Georgia Tech WR The Falcons trade up and get their man

3 Browns Brady Quinn Notre Dame QB They almost take Peterson, but with the home town boy available and a huge need at QB, Crenell tries to buy more time as coach with Quinn.

4 Bucs Gaines Adams Clemson DE They take the best DE prospect.

5 Cardinals Joe Thomas Wisconsin OT The lions trading down is the best thing that could happen to the cards.

6 Packers Adrian Peterson Oklahoma RB Once the Browns pass on Peterson the packers don't hesitate to trade up for the first time in Ted Thompson's career and get their feature back to replace Ahman Green.

7 Vikings LaRon Landry LSU S. With Brady Quinn gone the vikings take Landry to continue building their young defense.

8 Lions Levi Brown Penn State OT The need D-Line help but will address that in the next rounds, Brown is a great fit and they need a future at LT.

9 Dolphins Jamaal Anderson Arkansas DE They take the prospect with the most upside in the draft in Anderson.

10 Texans Amobi Akoye Louisville DT They continue to build their young defense with Akoye

11 49ers Alan Branch Michigan DE. grabbing Clements was huge, now they get their line taken care of.

12 Bills Marshawn Lynch California RB I think they still flirt with Ted Ginn Jr, but with McGahee gone, and plenty of later picks in a deep WR class, they take Lynch.

13 Rams Patrick Willis ILB

14 Panthers Reggie Nelson Florida S With Landry gone they take the next best option at Safety.

15 Broncos Adam Carriker Nebraska DE

16 Redskins Victor Abiamiri DE Notre Dame

17 Jaguars Jarvis Moss Florida DE

18 Bengals Leon Hall Michigan CB

19 Titans Ted Ginn Jr Ohio State WR relieved that TG2 is still available
