I'm just curious to see who you guys are going to be paying extra close attention to, just because you are a fan of that prospect. It does not have to pertain to the Jets. Every year I have players that I really, really enjoyed watching in college, and I am very curious to see where they land. Eric Norwood was that prospect for me last year. So.. My list of players that I'm excited to find out where they land: Ryan Kerrigan (DE/LB Purdue) - I have a man crush. I love true football players with a lot of heart. I really enjoyed watching this kid play for the BoilerMakers. Cam Heyward (DE Ohio State) - He is going to be a solid pro, I am a Ohio State fan, and I watched a lot of him the last four years. He is really good and he isn't going to be another Gholston. He's awesome. Jerrell Powe - (NT Ole Miss) - Ok, so I just like this guy as a football player. He could be a really good pro, and he could be a bust. I'm hoping he excells. He is a big man, and athletic for a big man. He does belong in a 3-4. I just like that this guy is so determined. He wasn't the smartest guy in school, but he fought through it, did what he had to do to play what he enjoys. I like stories like that. I'm rooting for him. Actually kinda reminds me of Greene's story in College. Oh, I almost forgot this guy.. http://youtu.be/Jp9MuxAszEM Noel Devine - (HB WVU) The dude is amazing. Fun to watch. He's simply Devine. I hope he finds success in the NFL.
Leonard Hankerson WR The U First off, I'm a Canes fan. Second, I know he might not be one of the top 5 WRs taken in the draft. Although I think hes' the 4th WR to go. That said, the team that drafts this kid is going to get a solid WR for years to come. He's big (6' 2" 210 lbs), fast (4.43 ), and IMO has really done a great job this year addressing any issues with his route running and hands.
Rahim Moore. Not sure why I am, such a fan, but I would be happy if the Jets traded down to get him. Whenever I see the playmaking safety (even if he did struggle this year), I can't help but imagine what that player would do in NY
I would love to see Cam Jordan in Green and White.. putting together a pretty solid combine right now..
Favorite Prospect Overall: Mark Herzlich, LB, Boston College Offensive 10: AJ Green, WR, Georgia Cam Newton, QB, Auburn Zack Pianalto, TE, UNC Julius Peterson, TE, Portland State Andrew Jackson, OG, Fresno State Stevan Ridley, RB, LSU Alex Green, RB, Hawaii Stanley Havili, RB/FB, USC Ronald Johnson, WR, USC Jeff Maehl, WR, Oregon Defensive 10: Jabaal Sheard, DE/OLB, Pittsburgh Jeremy Beal, DE/OLB, Oklahoma Akeem Ayers, LB, UCLA Muhammed Wilkerson, DL, Temple Chris Carter, OLB, Fresno State Davon House, CB, New Mexico State Robert Sands, S, West Virginia DeAndre McDaniel, S, Clemson Jerrard Tarrant, S, Georgia Tech Lawrence Guy, DL, Arizona State
For some reason I really like Acho. I think he's will do really well in the right system. He ran a 4.63 today. So he can move.

My favorite 2011 Draft prospects: Akeem Ayers, LB, UCLA Cameron Jordan, DL, Cal JJ Watt, DL, Wisconsin Muhammad Wilkerson, DL, Temple Brooks Reed, DE,/OLB, Arizona Steven Friday, DE/OLB, Virginia Tech Mikel Leshoure, RB, Illinois Mason Foster, OLB, Washington Kendric Burney, CB, North Carolina Johnny Patrick, CB, Louisville Austin Pettis, WR, Boise St Greg Little, WR, North Carolina Dane Sanzenbacher, WR, OSU Nate Williams, S, Washington Vai Taua, RB, Nevada Kenny Rowe, LB, Oregon Lee Smith, TE, Marshall
I'm becoming a huge fan of Brooks Reed. This kid is tough. Watched an old USC game of his. Sanchez was hating this kid that game. lol I'm impressed. I like him over a guy like, Sheard.
I'd really like to trade down and nab Reed in the early-mid 2nd. I'm a big fan of his tenacity. I'm a pretty big fan of Tyron Smith too, although he's quickly turning into the top tackle prospect in this class. The recent talk of Martez Wilson is starting to open my eyes up to him as a potential OLB prospect as well. He was just ridiculous today.
