1 RB Rashard Mendenhall
A big back with speed and quickness. Would fit perfect in our system for the next 10 years

2 OT Chris Williams
Showed good speed and quickness for an OL. Fits well in the ZBS. Still has upside.

3 RB Jonathan Stewart
Huge RB. Not quite as quick as Mendenhall but should fit in here because of his speed.

4. CB Mike Jenkins
Put up a great workout. Has good size and is one of the best cover corners in the draft. Ballskills are lacking though.

5. CB Dominique Rodgers Cromartie
Was a fringe 1st rounder because of his lack of exposure, but worked out very well and showed the best footwork and technique out of all the CB's. Still a bit rough around the edges though and could stand to bulk up a bit and play more physical. Big upside.

6. DE Derrick Harvey
Measured in well at 6'5 271lbs and threw up 31 reps. Timed speed is adequate at 4.80, but he has very good technique and instincts.

7. DB Reggie Smith
Physical and a big hitter. Has experience at both safety and corner. Should run in the high 4.4's- low 4.5's at his proday. 18 is a bit high for him, but he's shown true cover skills and can legitimately play safety. If we stay at 18 and everyone up there is gone, Smith makes alot of sense.

8. S Dajuan Morgan
Measured in as expected at 6'0 205lbs and ran a 4.52. Better cover skills than Phillips and is just as physical. Plays the run very well. Overall technique could use some work. In a trade down scenario to the end of the 1st-early 2nd, he may be the guy. My #1 free safety.

9A. RB Kevin Smith
Great vision and instincts. Speed was better than expected, but even if he hadn't timed that well, he would be a great ZBS candidate. Tough and physical with size at 6'1 217lbs. Similar to Antoine Cason in that he has the best skills out of the RB class, but he lacks elite measurables. Still, an average of 4.50 is more than adequate.

9B. CB Antoine Cason
Outside of pure speed, he is the best corner in this class. His technique, instincts, and ballskills are all very good. Has good size at 6'0 190lbs. He plays physical and plays the run well. Ran a 4.49, but his overall skills as a CB make up for his lack of elite speed. Again, not worth the 18th, but if we trade down or if everyone is gone, he fits well.

10. LB Jerod Mayo
Yea, Mayo over Connor. Mayo came in and measured in much better than expected at 6'2 242lbs and ran a 4.55. He plays up to his measurables too and has experience both inside and outside. A better pure athlete than Connor without considering measurables. Just seems more fluid. A tackling machine and playmaker out of the SEC. Remind anyone of someone? Not worth the 18th, but again, in a trade down scenario, he'd get a long look if the guys we want arent there.
