sorry about that

I wanna replace Leonard Hankerson with AJ Green. I forgot the Redskins have no QB. I think the Bengals will be better with no TO or Ocho around. Dalton and Green will have a good rookie year.

Top QB? Christian Ponder..AP still scares defenses and like the Vikings I just gotta feeling about the kid.

Top 3 WRs? AJ Green is going to tear up this league. Talent plus great attitude. Greg Little should make some noise and also the guy the packers drafted in the 2nd I think.

Top 2 TEs? Luke Stoker and Rob Housler in Arizona...both homer picks for my fav team and the second guys is from my schools team.

Top 3 RBs? 1. Daniel Thomas in Miami..my pick for the best running back in this draft. 2. Mark Ingram 3. Lamicheal James

Top DB? Jimmy Smith....feel into an awesome situation in B More.

Top LB? Von Miller. Should be a beast in Denver.

Top D-lineman? Kerrigan playing alongside the underated London Flecther and Brian Orakpo should help

[bullg8rdaddy]

Aldon is going to be OLB for SF.

[Beatles123]

No love for our DE's, JDub? 

[Pepsi]

JDouble, I don't remember you saying anything about Aldon Smith before but he's your predicted top rookie Dlineman?  We should be starting 2 top prospect DE's, so I'm guessing the top rookie Dlineman is going to be a Buc.

AJ Green will absolutely be in the top 3 for rookie WR's, and Jones probably will too.

Did you just say Lamichael James? He is still in college.

I'm taking into account each guys situation. Kerrigan was my favorite DE, but he's an OLB now and I think he'll struggle in Washington. Aldon Smith is going to a solid defense where he'll immediately be asked to pin his ears back and rush the passer as the starting RE.

Someone said he is going to be an OLB but I haven't heard anything like that. Unless they are making a change to 3-4 that I missed, the 49ers run a 4-3 and needed a real pass rushing DE opposite Justin Smith. I think Aldon Smith will have a big rookie campaign in San Fran. I definitely don't see the 49ers using him as a 6'4" 265lbs OLB in their 4-3.
