My Best Values for each Round. Rd 1 Robert Quinn, Rams.....Excellent player that could have been in the Top 6. Rd 2 Stephen Paea, Bears...great fit in the Bear's defense. Rd 3 Justin Houston, Chiefs....off field concerns and limited ability push his stock down. Still, great value. Rd 4 Sam Acho, Cards......Had Acho rated very late Rd 2, early Rd 3. Rd 5 Marcus Cannon, Pats......If he clears his medical after treatments, he's a steal. Rd 6 Quan Sturdivant, Cards........Cards have a nice draft. Waiting for FA for their QB. Rd 7 Greg Romeus, Saints.....A MAJOR find in Rd 7, medical pushes Romeus way down.
I really do not think that Acho in the 4th is that great of value. I see him as a mid to late 3rd round player. I know he is extremely smart and motivated but from what I have seen from watching his tapes I am not impressed. Kid is stiff at the waste. These are not neccessarily my "best value" picks but players that I think will definitely make an impact soon or will start rather soon. 3rd Round: Hankerson, Houston, Pettis, Mallett***, Foster, Bailey***** I honestly believe Hankerson is the real deal. He had a shitty QB throwing to him in College and tore shit up in the Senior Bowl. Houston has the Talent of an upper 2nd round player and the fact that Mallett landed with Tom Brady gives him an instant upgrade at value due to his natural ability at the position. Look for Mason Foster to start by the end of the year. Allen Bailey had the potential to be a second round pick he just wasnt consistent enough . I dont think he will wprk out with the chiefs especially since I do not see him as a 3-4 end but I can see him working out in the future. 4th Round: Jordan Cameron, Tandon Doss, Greg Salas Although Cameron never had the playing time at USC he has the measurables and the athleticism to be succesfull in the NFL. The kid was a McDonalds All AMerican Basketball Player.... Antonio Gates Anyone Doss and Salas were both extremely productive wr that will definitely be productive in the NFL. Look for them to be prodcutive in the slot 5th Round: Sands, Cannon, and Dion Lewis We all know Lewis is tiny, but the on a good team the kid can get the job done. He just needs a good complimentary back. 6th Round: Quan Sturdivant, Aldrick Robinson, and Greg Jones There is no way atleast 2 of those 3 players do not pan out. Didn't Jones have a 3rd round grade? 7th Round: Virgil Green and Darel Scott I go to UMD and Scott is a really underrated running back. The kid is fast and extremely strong for his size. He ran the fastest 40 time in the draft and has some serious moves. I always saw him more as a frank gore power type runner with speed. Never though he would run sub 4.4. and then last til the 7th.
