I dont see the Saints passing on Jenkins for Rivers...
Bears NEED a true RB, so i don't see them going WR with Mendenhall on the board
I dont see Jonathon Stewart any earlier than 22 because of the injury
3 WR in the 1st round seems a little skim to me...
You seem to be forgetting Dan Conner on your board...although maybe you aren't with Mayo going to the Titans instead

I really dont understand the fascination of Chris Johnson in the 1st day on this forum (1st day being 1st and 2nd rnds). Yeah, I know he ran real well at the combine, but he doesnt really have much elusiveness in him...He doesnt play like someone who can make people miss, and if you cant make people miss, and you cant power through lines, 4.25 doesnt really mean much. You are pretty much saying the Seahawks, who just signed Julius Jones and still employ Maurice Morris used a 1st rounder for a kick returner, with Dustin Keller, et al, are available.....I dont see the Seahawks going RB at all this draft, and i dont see Chris Johnson before the middle of the 3rd

I could surely see the Saints going Rivers over Jenkins. Randall Gay may not seem like a big deal but the acquisition of him makes CB less tempting.

The Redskins need a big WR to compliment Santana Moss and Antwaan Randel El. DeSean Jackson wouldn't fit there.

Many Titans fans don't like the Mayo to Tennessee pick but I do. Even though we don't use our MLB as much as other teams I still think he'd be a great pick up.

I don't like Chris Johnson in the first round, and not to Seattle. They already have Alexander, Jones, and Duckett.

Sommers,

I greatly disagree with your assessment of Johnson. He can make people miss. He's very elusive and at the same time can run through tackles as well. He's not an easy guy to bring down at all. Just watch him return kicks to see that. He doesn't try to run around to the outside, using his speed to beat defenders. Instead, he attacks. He tries to break tackles and does make tacklers miss in confined space.
