Movin' On Up (The Draft Board)

[bigm29]

to early to be really specific. I hope we trade down for more picks but thats probably not gonna happen. if we make any trades it will giving up about 3 '08 picks for one pick in '07. If we wind up staying the way we are right now though i think we should just take the best defensive player available regardless of his position. Drafting for one specific need is not always the way to go. especially in the first round.

1. Gaines Adams, Clemson, DE (Music City Bowl, Dec. 29)
2. Amobi Okoye, Louisville, DT (Orange Bowl, Jan. 2)
3. Quinn Pitcock, Ohio St., DT (BCS Championship, Jan. 8)
4. Tim Crowder, Texas, DE (Alamo Bowl, Dec. 30)

Any other players you draftniks propose I keep an eye on?

Granted even if we pick one of these players Grilliams won't play them until week 10 after they have mastered "the system"...

I think you have to keep an eye on Alan Branch from Michigan, only a junior but apparently he's ready to make the leap. Not a sack specialist like Adams but a true run stuffer.
