FA Signings: TE Daniel Graham, Patriots I believe Mangini would like to get a 2nd TE alongside Baker. In my opinion, it will either be Daniel Graham or Eric Johnson from San Fran. OT Leonard Davis, Cardinals This might just be wishful thinking, but here's hoping for a new RT. CB Asante Samuel, Patriots This one seems like a no-brainer to me. It's either Samuel or Clements, and to be honest, I think Clements is pretty overrated. I don't usually like to point to numbers, but Samuel had a pretty damn good season. Draft: 1. Patrick Willis - LB, Ole Miss I'm probably going to get flamed for this one, but what the hey. Willis is a tackling machine. Most people think that a huge NT is the biggest need on the defense, but I'm not convinced. One of the best ILBs in the game and one of the best ILB prospects could make for a hell of a tandem. 2. Tank Tyler - DT, NC State And then we fix the NT position with this beast. 2. Brian Leonard - FB, Rutgers Like some people have said, Leonard is probably the best FB prospect ever. This guy is extremely talented and to pass him up here would be a mistake. 3. Rufus Alexander - OLB, Oklahoma Athletic linebacker who could play opposite Bryan Thomas. 5. Dwayne Wright - RB, Fresno State I don't know why I think Wright's going to fall this far, but for some reason, I do. I could also go for Chris Henry at this spot, but it seems like he might not be coming out this year. 6. Jake Kuresa - G, BYU Yea, I'm not going to lie. I know nothing at all about this guy except that he's apparently 330 lbs. I don't know much when it comes to the offensive line, so I'm just going to pretend like I didn't make this pick haha. 7. Mike Richardson - CB, Notre Dame I'm going for my homer pick on this one. Underrated CB on a terrible pass defense team. Did not get thrown at very often this season. I'm not sure whether it was because of terrible coverage on the other side or because of his very good coverage, but I think he's a decent CB although he might not be athletic enough for the next level. After making this, I'm not sure how much I like it, but it didn't take long and maybe I'll take another look at it tomorrow haha. I also didn't feel like getting into re-signings and cuts or anything. All I know is I've seen a couple mocks saying not to re-sign Hank Poteat, and that would be a terrible mistake.
Tank Tyler was arrested for assault and ejected from a game for spitting on another player. You can forget about Mangini drafting him.
