    I don't know if Hardy is going to come out because he's missed so much time this year at Ole Miss...but he is the nastiest pass rusher out there, with Brown being a close second.

    Watch out for Jeff Schweiger out of San Jose State - he's a defensive end transfer for Southern Cal - this guy could turn out to be a very good 3-4 linebacker with the right coaching. UConn's Cody Brown is another guy that could play in the 3-4.

    Honestly, I just want to see our FO go after a few linebackers in this draft. We need depth at that position - it would be great if they could bring in a pass rusher and an inside guy.

    If South Carolina's Eric Norwood comes out early, he'll be a top of the line 3-4 linebacker prospect.

    He's a HUGE linebacker that knows how to get after the quarterback.

    Nope i said earlier he would be a great pick for us in the 4th round range.

    Kellen Clemens won't be with us much longer and while everyone here is high on Ratliff he is still unproven.

    Bomar has some serious skills and is eerily reminiscent of a young Brett Favre.

    Pros: Big arm, does well on the move, good scrambling ability
    Cons: Not the most accurate, unimpressive TD/INT ratio

    That applies to both Favre and Bomar.

    They are also both 6'2 and 220 lbs.

    He would be a great QB to groom under Favre and whenever Favre finally moves on, Bomar could potentially come in and the offense could continue without missing a beat.

    I have found who I want. Shonn Greene.

    5'11'' 235, 4.6ish.

    1- His name is Greene, its perfect.
    2- Very tough runner, runs through tackles with determination.
    3- Great Vision, waits for the hole to develop.
    4- Awesome balance, spins off many tackles.

    Every year, I get a crush on a player. Greene might be it this year. Hes the very opposite of Leon. It could be an awesome combo.

    Greene would be a great compliment to Leon. He's a really tough runner...

    Where do you think a team can find Shonn Greene in the draft, if he comes out.

    we need dept on O-line and D-line before anything- winning in the trenches is the fundamental reason we are as good as we are this year. however if Farve goes then starting some first year QB might be rough. Once we have Harris back you will see our ILb be better in coverage. TJ will be good to go next year and leon is only getting better so I don't think that is a pressing need. A number two corner is still a concern but maybe lowery will work out who knows.

    Personally, I like Michael Oher at LT. Think about how good our OL would be with that draft pick.

    It's pretty safe to say he will go in the top 10, it's also safe to say we won't be picking in the top 10, but who knows, it's still really early, his stock could totally plummet by draft day.

    From the title I'm guessing better schools.

    Jeremy Maclin the WR out of Missouri. Crabtree is top 10 pick. It's not gonna happen.

    Stud RT or DE......

    Have to plan for the future. The improvement in the trenches is what turned this team around..... need to keep that foundation strong. It's not all about drafting for NOW..... see HERMWAY
    CB, RB, ILB, and WR wouldn't be bad either.....

    QB is of course the wildcard. I'm hoping the JETS aren't in the position to draft one of the stud prospects ;)
