1) Rams - Sam Bradford (D value)
To me this selection was a big reach! Bradford in my opinion should sit for a year. Which drops his value in my opinion considerably. Above system QB at best.
2) Lions - Ndamukong Suh (-B value)
Suh is a no question quality NG or DT type. Though he is tough within the hashes he doesn't provide the versatility to bring it off the edge. So drops his overall value for the cap hit your taking.
3) Buccanears - Gerald McCoy (C+ value)
McCoy is a good prospect but not what I consider a dominate type prospect worthy of top 3 overall selection.
4) Redskins - Trent Williams (B value)
I like Williams overall athleticism & skill sets, but to take him 4th overall with his questionable wok habits??????????????????
5) Chiefs - Eric Berry (-B value)
I like Berry but I don't love Berry's overall game enough to take him #5 overall. Do you really feel he is a multiple pro bowler & possible Hall Of Fame type? Cause that is close to what you will need for where he was taken & cap hit!
6) Seahawks -Russell Okung (B+ value)
He is the most solid Offensive Tackle in this years draft, both on and off the field. And at #6 good value for a starting LT for years to come. Good foundation selection.
7) Browns - Joe Haden (C value)
What a reach when you easily could have gotten a better CB in Kyle Wilson 22 selections better. With all the help the Browns need they would have been best served dropping back and collecting more selections to fill holes. Because Haden isn't by any means a shutdown corner!
8) Raiders - Rolando McClain (-B value)
Good player but not impact player at the NFL level. Had him as more of a bottom of the 1st value selection.
9) Bils - C.J. Spiller (B+ value)
Though there may be durability questions (due to lack of heavy carries during collegiate career) Spiller not only is a homerun hitter, but reminds me of soon to be Hall Of Famer "Marshall Faulk" at RB. Enough said.
10) Jags - Tyson Alualu (C+ value)
I really do like Alualu's game on the field. But I had him valued as a mid 2nd - 3rd round prospect. But can provide versatiliy all along the D-Line, and brings it on an every down basis.
11) 49ers - Anthony Davis (B+ value)
Excellent value selection here. Because had Davis come out in the 2011 draft he would be a sure top 5 selection! Now there are maturity & conditioning issues to deal with but boy will Davis help both in the run & passing game!
12) Chargers - Ryan Mathews (B value)
He is only a B value selection because he lacks gamebreaking ability. He is a three down player who can stay on the field on any down. Though he has all the facets in his game other than top level speed. But #12 selection is a bit high for this player.
13) Eagles - Brandon Graham (A value)
I had him rated as a top 15 overall talent. He is non stop motor in motion. Who shows a passion for the game, and is equally as talented coming of the edge vs O-Lineman. And making his way to the QB!
14) Seahawks - Earl Thomas (F value)
Earl Thomas in my evaluation of him is soooooooooo overrated. He lacks the catchup speed, hesitates to initiate first contact with ball carriers, and many other not so flattering traits.

15) Giants - Jason Pierre-Paul (B value)
Unfortantley I have had a lack of evaluation time on this prospect so really don't want to give much of an analysis on. So on reported athleticism alone lets say he has a chance.
16) Titans - Derrick Morgan (C value)
A bit of a reach here to me. A solid performer but not an impact player.
17) 49ers - Mike Iupati (-B value)
May have been a bit of a reach, but a player with a mean streak, and who brings it on an every down basis. Massive O-Lineman who has a high ceiling to become a dominate force within the interior of the line!
18) Steelers - Maurkice Pouncey (-A value)
Pouncey has the projected upside to be a perineal All-Pro at either center or guard. Excellent value here by the Steelers.
19) Falcons - Sean Weatherspoon (C+ value)
He is a good safe selection here. Lacks impact to be selected here.
20) Texans - Kareem Jackson (F value)
He is soooooooooooo overrated
PROSPECT PROFILE ON < http://1stdownscouting.blogspot.com/2010/04/cb-kareem-jackson-alabama.html >
21) Bengals - Jermaine Gresham (-C value)
His athleticism and big play ability has been widely over hyped. He lacks the first step explosion that will allow him to gain consistent cushion versus defenders, and will prevent him from converting explosion plays of 20+ yards in his NFL career.
22) Broncos - Demaryius Thomas (A value)
He was my #1 rated WR coming into the draft! Was great to see Thomas selected over Dez Bryant. His upside and physical skill sets far out weigh anyone in this draft. Not willing to say he is a Calvin Johnson clone, but he is an no question impact player waiting to happen!
23) Packers - Bryan Bulaga (B+ value)
He is a solid solid solid offensive tackle in this years draft. He went a bit below my projection, making him a good value. At best he will be your LT for years to come. At worse he is your RT for years to come.
24) Cowboys - Dez Bryant (C value)
Bryant just doesn't show me the consistent first step explosion, and burst in and out of cuts to make him an elite WR prospect to keep it to a minimum.
25) Broncos - Tim Tebow (F value)
Horrible selection here. Read profile below!
PROSPECT PROFILE ON < http://1stdownscouting.blogspot.com/2010/04/tim-tebow-player-profile.html >
26) Cardinals - Dan Williams (-C value)
I like Williams as a mid 2nd - 3rd round value. But this was too much of a reach here by the Cards!
27) Patriots - Devin McCourty (-C value)
Wow what was Belichick and the Pats brain trust thinking of on this selection? I like McCourty and feel he is a solid prospect, but more like a end of the 2nd - 3rd round prospect. Hmmmmmm????????????
28) Dolphins - Jared Odrick (B+ value)
Right about where I had him going. This was excellent value here by the Miami here. Odrick ultimately will be a dominate force within the interior area as 4-3 DT or eventual NG in a 3-4. His first step explosion and motor for the game is unique!
29) Jets - Kyle Wilson (A+ value)
Boy the Jets hit it big here. I had Wilson rated as my #1 CB in this years draft! He likes to mix it up on both the run & pass. Shows excellent instincts as pass defender. and even provides extra value as a better than average PR as well!
30) Lions - Jahvid Best (-D value)
What a reach here! In my opinion Best is not even a true between the tackles runner at the NFL level. I had him rated as an Athlete not running back in my ratings. Lions really blew it here.
31) Colts - Jerry Hughes (????)
Hard for me to rate because really didn't see much evaluation time on Hughes. Wouldn't want to give analysis on.
32) Saints - Patrick Robinson (????)
Robinson is another prospect I dind't get as much evaluation on. In limited evaluation on he flashed good overall athleticism for the position, but not sure of insincts & skill sets?????
When will someone take a "few" of my draft sleepers??????????
Kevin Basped - DE/OLB - Nevada
Carson Blackmon - FS - Houston
Marcellus Bowman - SS - Boston College
Levi Brown - QB - Troy
Alex Daniels - OLB - Cincinnati
Dexter Davis - OLB - Arizona State
Carlton Mitchell - WR - South Florida
Mike Newton - SS - Buffalo
Devin Ross - CB - Arizona
Ike Whitaker - QB - VA Tech
Keiland Williams - RB - LSU
