All signs are pointing towards Jake Long at #1. I know anything can happen, but right now unless something changes Jake is the pick there

I like the Derrick Harvey selection for Cincinnati if Ellis and Rivers are off the board. I havent seen that pick yet.

I think I am the only person who believes that the Bills will not take a WR with their pick. And if they do it'll probably be Devin Thomas, who has put himself in the top spot among WR's for now

I still havent figured out why Albert is a better prospect than Clady all of a sudden, but Albert has the hype right now so I cant really argue there

I doubt the Seahawks take Stewart. They have a cluttered RB depth chart with Alexander, Julius Jones, Maurice Morris and TJ Duckett

Haha you'll hear it from cubuffsman for the Felix Jones pick

I dont think the Giants would take Reggie Smith. He has worked himself out of the 1st round IMO. I would rather see Connor there

Jacksonville prefers bigger D-Lineman. Calais Campbell would be a more fitting pick. Teams aren't dropping Campbell very far on their boards after poor workouts because they're still intruiged by has size. With that said I think he'll be a first rounder.

Chris Long recently said in an interview on ESPN that beyond his pro day, he hasn't had any contact with the Dolphins. I think that's a huge mistake on Miami's part, but I doubt Parcells and Co. care what I think. Jake Long or Gholston will be the pick and I think Miami is leaning towards Long. I think that's the smarter pick. I like Gholston, but I don't think he's worthy of No. 1.

I can't see the Chiefs taking Ellis over Vernon Gholston or an OL. If the Jared Allen trade goes through like expected, then I think Gholston is the pick. If it doesn't, then I think Clady or Albert is the pick.

On the Albert over Clady pick, if it comes down to Denver choosing between the two, I think the Broncos would select Branden Albert. He fits the scheme better. Clady would be fine in it, but Albert would be an All-Pro in the zone blocking scheme.

I agree with Jets' comments on Seattle taking Stewart and Sweed going to the Bills for the exact reasons he submitted.

Groves doesn't fit the Jags' scheme. They like DEs that top 270 lbs. Groves is about 255 and looks like an OLB in a 3-4. Jax plays one of the more pure 4-3's in the NFL.

I do hate the Felix Jones selection. I'd rather see Chris Johnson or Jamaal Charles. Unfortunately, I have to face it that it's a possibility. I will boo the pick from my home for no one to hear if it happens. I don't like his running style at all and he's far too easy to tackle.

I'll defend the Reggie Smith to Giants selection. They need to replace Gibril Wilson at SS and Smith is a very good prospect for the position possibly the best.

There are mixed reports on this. I've read that some scouts are reportedly saying they wouldn't touch Campbell in the third round let alone the first.
