Using Roy's trade scenario in Walt's mock I'd take:

1.#25- Jahvid Best, RB, California
We select one of the fastest and most explosive RB's after seeing Chris Johnson's success last year. Our running game last year ranked near the bottom and Kubiak has stated he will address that early in this years draft.

2.#19-Maurkice Pouncey, C/G, Florida
Pouncey solidifies our interior line with solid pass protection and run blocking skills.

3.#20-Reshad Jones, S, Georgia
Jones here is a steal. He should be able to start and instantly improves our secondary.

3.#25-Linval Joseph, NT, East Carolina
Many feel the Okam experiment is over so taking Joseph here makes sense. He won't have to start right away and has size you don't find too often.

4.#19-Walter McFadden, CB, Auburn
We take a CB here and McFadden is the best available. Texans will try to resign DRob, but if they can't McFad will start opposite Reeves/Quin.

5.#20-Charles Scott, RB, LSU
Scott falls a bit because of some injury concerns, so we take him here knowing he'll mainly be used as a situational back. We were horrible in the red zone last year.

This is the way I'd go as of today 13 Feb 2010

1.#25- CB Patrick Robinson 5'11" 194 4.42 Florida St

2.#19- RB Ryan Matthews 5'11" 220 4.49 Fresno St.

3.#20- OG Mike Johnson 6'5" 305 5.38 Alabama

3.#25- DT Tyson Alualu 6'2" 295 4.96 California

4.#19- CB Myron Lewis 6'2" 205 4.52 Vanderbilt

5.#20- OC Ted Larsen 6'2" 300 5.24 North Carolina St

Lewis would be my FS

About as accurate as anybody else on the day of the draft

Guys that are currently listed where they are, may or may not be listed in the same round 6 weeks from now. This is an amorphous ameoba, that is constantly changing shape.

Thanks Roy. I know there is a huge BS factor in all draft stuff that we are privy to, but they seem pretty thorough although it is just blanks that can be filled in.

Do you have better suggestions that don't cost a lot?

My favorite is TheHuddleReport.com and it is really a combination of authors. Aaron Freeman works the Teams' Needs angle of the draft. Fred Jones does a probability thing considering the top 3 choices for a team. Robby Esch sort of compiles all the outside data with his own grades. However, the main reason I like it is because of Drew Boylhart. He is very opinionated and is the voice of the player profiles much like Mayock, Kiper, McShay, etc. You might not agree with everything he says, but at least he's willing to say that the 1st round consensus guy is going to be a BUST if somebody drafts him like all the experts are predicting. It only costs $10 per year.

These are their stats in terms of accuracy. Again, the board changes until draft day, so today's board may not be the one to go by. However, it gives a pretty decent approximation.

BOTTOM LINE

Because of Dan's size and quickness and good lateral agility he can play multiple positions in any style of defense for you. I have no doubt that he could be a DE in a 3-4 defense also because of his quickness off the line and lateral agility. Dan is as close to a finished product that you can get at the college level for his position. He has the speed to catch most QB's from behind when they break the pocket, which is surprising for a person who is as large as he is. Let me tell you, when you see Dan on film start to chase down a QB from behind, it's like sitting on a boat and staring at a stunt plane as you think it is diving into the horizon when in all actuality, it just dove directly into the lake your boat was sitting on It looks like it's all not happening in real time. That's why I call him Dan (Real Time) Williams because it looks like Dan is not playing in real time.

**********************************
So Roy, you're a Boylhart fan so IYO just what the hell is this guy saying here about Williams, because it's unclear to me what his message is, what metapher he's trying to use, or just what ? If I didn't know better I'd say he's maybe smokin something while he's writing up the player evaluations ? It is
colorful, kinda entertainingg language though. I think ? Does he always talk like this ?
