the draft overall seems weak this year to me

there's 9 blue chip defensive players
5 pass rushers (Hutchinson, Thibodeaux, Ojabo, Karlaftis)
2 standout LBs (Dean and Lloyd)
2 standout CBs (Gardner and Stingley Jr.)
and then Kyle Hamilton

5 Rd1 WRs (Garrett Wilson, Burks, Jameson Williams, London, Olave)

4-5 OL will probably go top 20 (Neal, Cross, Ekwonu, Linderbaum and maybe Kenyon Green), but then a bunch of the Ts after that are from smaller schools

interior DL is super weak, especially outside of Georgia guys
no RBs or TEs worth a 1st

and QBs as usually are the wild card... Willis, Pickett and Corral probably go in Rd1 just because there are so many teams in need of QB, but all three of those guys are completely different from one another, so it will depend on scheme fit

but outside of the top 20-25 it doesn't seem to be too deep of a class, but again I haven't really paid as much attention this year as I usually do because my 49ers don't pick until 61

I can tell you about 2 LSU guys Damone Clark and Neil Farrell are goin to be steals, Damone Clark should be a 1st rounder but will prolly got 2-3 round, Neil Farrell is rising up I heard somewhere Mel Kiper has him in his top 5

Green prob slips into the top 20, definitely the top 25

Byrdgang is getting 3 of the 20 prospects

:banderas:

Gardner, London & Dean

Neil Farrell is a sleeper favorite of mine, I was seeing him in Rd3, but it makes sense that he will rise up boards, with it being a weak DT class

forgot to mention Ridder, I could definitely see him going Rd1, maybe even top 20 to a team like NO or PIT
