I doubt it. After seeing what's happened recently with Leinart and Brohm, I think more QB's will be entering the draft early if they're projected to be in the top 10. It's just not worth it anymore.

Thats a terrible board . I think the first pick will be Mike Oher OT Ole MIss, Or if its us we take Mike Crabtree WR Texas Tech. He is the best athlete in the draft and reminds of a better Randy Moss. He is crazy good. Vonte Davis and Jenkins I would like to have if Crabtree is gone. But if Long fails at LT I wouldnt mind goingn Oher to play LT They compare him to Orlando Pace.

James Laurinaitis please. This kid is gonna be a stud and is huge. He would be the cornerstone for our defense the next 10-12 years. Add that to the other very young, talented players we have and our defense has a great foundation.

Disclaimer: Long time FSU fan here, Bowden recruited blue-chip after blue-chip none of those guys ever sniffed the NFL.

Stafford has so much talent I think he's a legit prospect, and then some, regardless of the coaching. We'll find out more in '08 since Georgia is projected to be up, way up, and there will be exponentially increased focus and pressure on Stafford.

I seldom follow recruiting but a friend who I respect tremendously turned me on to Stafford. I watched his high school clips on YouTube and was blown away.

Last season he progressed nicely including some amazing darts in the Sugar Bowl.

Laurinaitis all the way, we need that kind of player in the middle of our LB corps.

laurinitais would be the perfect fit. i hate to say it but he is a bigger faster zach

I really like McShay, but when he posted this column last week, I was really questioning it. I know to take it with a grain of salt, but I don't even see Tim Tebow as a legitimate NFL prospect as a QB, much less in the top 10.

If anything, he would be a fullback or TE conversion, or at least I would think. He's just not enough of a passer or a runner to be successful at the next level as a QB.

Not a hater just because I'm a Nole...I think that he's one hell of a college QB and extremely physically gifted, but his type of athleticism doesn't translate to the NFL.

PLUS...I don't see any way that we wind up with the 4th worst record in the league next year.

crabtree has my vote..with parcells/ireland/sporano stating we need a #1 reciever he is looking good to be on the phins next yr.

Tim Tebow isn't Chris Leak. He's got the accuracy, the arm strength, and the mobility to be a quarterback in the NFL.

How on earth are people saying he's going to be a fullback. Honestly? Last year everyone questioned his ability to throw the football, and look what happened.. he won the heisman and threw darts. I think with his current development he'll be a pretty damn good prospect. The only issue I have with tebow is the mental aspect... Im not sure he can read defenses

[Majpain]

MCshay is a moron. Most of that board are underclassmen. The fact that he doesn't even have Chris Wells as a 1st round pick is beyond stupidity.

It happens every year and it gives you an idea of who to look at during the season.

[RUDEbyallMEANS]

Rey Maualuga or Laurinitis. Maualuga is going to be a FREAK of a MLB in the 3-4. The guy can stack up lineman, shed and go sidleine to sideline.

Maualuga is my #1 for Miami in 2009.

[NRA]

i want to see wr's and db's for MOST of
this draft. besides a qb, these have been our
HUGE weekness for a number of years now.

PLAYMAKERS, not just bodies.



MP08!!
