totalbirdbrain Posted January 1, 2008 Share Posted January 1, 2008 Since we apparently don't know whether we are picking #3, #4, or #5?Please post your top 5 picks in order that you'd want them anda brief explanation of why. Everyone is entitled to their opinionand I am curious what is the consensus for our mighty birds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrDetecto Posted January 1, 2008 Share Posted January 1, 2008 1- McFadden- BPA, complete RB, face of the franchise- too many reason not to take him2- Dorsey (very close between the 2)- elite DT, would instantly make our defense great3- Ellis- same as Dorsey, just a bit smaller4- Brohm- elite QB with no weaknesses IMO, don't really know why he's ranked so low5- Clady- elite LT, would be a great starting point for the rebuilding of our lineNotice the similarities? All elite players. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
busboyisback Posted January 1, 2008 Share Posted January 1, 2008 1)DMac2)Glenn Dorsey 3)Sedrick Ellis (Chris Long is better but we already have that position filled)4)Jake Long (If he doesn't work out at LT he could be a stud at RT)5)Andre Woodson (Most upside to justify top 5 pick out of QBs in draft) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
totalbirdbrain Posted January 1, 2008 Author Share Posted January 1, 2008 Draft Board Top 51) Darren McFadden, Arkansas, BPA Improve our Offense immediately.2) Jake Long, Michigan, Left Tackle for the future.3) Glenn Dorsey, LSU, Anchors our Defensive Line for the future. (Injuries?)4) Brian Brohm, Louisville, Falcon Quarterback for the future5) Ryan Clady, Boise State, Apparently the 2nd best Left Tackle prospectLeft OffJames Laurinaitis, Awesome football player, but we've got other immediate needsSedric Ellis, I see as a great 3 technique under tackle prospect. (Only if Coleman isn't considered healthy enough)Matt Ryan, Decent Quarterback prospect, but not top #5 pick.Chris Long, Solid DE prospect, but not area of need.Vernon Gholston, Another extremely strong solid DE prospect, but not area of need Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
