Beat me to it.

Judging from everyone freaking out lately here's mine.

Round 1 (traded next two years 1st and picks 2-7) QB AnDrew Luck

There'd be absolutely no pressure for him to succeed after that trade up, and he'd probably turn into another Matt "Skidmark" Ryan because of it.

But no one could say it wasn't a bold move by the Saints' FO!

Do you really think Wolfe should be taken as high as that? I've seen him projected as going as low as the 6th round in some evaluations, none that I've seen have had him going higher than the 4th. Wolfe could be very similar to the type of a DT Chris Canty is for the Giants and could, therefore, be a player type that Spags would like to have.

lets see what the combine brings and his pro day. he may not be there in the second. 34 defenses will really be looking at him.

Well Mayock didn't have him even among the top 8 or so DT prospects, so there's a lot of talent to go around in the DT position.

Any DT or 2 that can push the pocket and get after the qb. stuff the run and basically do their job, I don't care what the name is or when we get them in the draft, I want them. If he would be an UFA it would be fine as long as the middle of the D can push that damn pocket period. One quality MLB or OLB and we should be set.

Yes, I wouldn't mess with Hightower

BTW, I would really like to do the B&G 1st round mock draft again like we did some years ago. I'll be the Vikings again ... last time I picked Adrian Peterson and then they picked AP IRL!

Vikings are too easy! They'll take Kalil for sure if St. Louis doesn't pick him before them or some other team doesn't trade up to get him.

Rams have got to protect Bradford...

And they've got to get him some targets to throw to... therefore, they might also go for Blackmon, but Kalil is definitely the most probable pick for them if they stay at that spot in the draft.
