what's not though, i'm just running through the positions in my head, what's the safest position to pick? DT or OL i would say. everything is a crap shoot, with QB being the biggest risk.

since he knows what hes talking about lets take phreaks list...in the last ten years he has 10 DE's listed as good to stud that were taken in round one...thats one a year...but more than that is the fact that the bust ratio of DE's is huge compared to other positions...its one thing for a #1 pick to be a good player or even average...but it kills you when your #1 is a flat out bust...

this tends to be the case imo because de's are pretty much on an island...yeah having a quality de opposite you helps with alleviating double teams but in general its you vs the guy across from you...there isnt much room for error and there isnt other positions to help or bail you out...such as a good ol helps a rb a good qb helps a wr and vice versa

tamba hali is the one player that weve all pretty much agreed is not an nfl player...havent heard this judgement rendered on any other players in the first round...and his position is??

From DraftDaddy.com:

QuoteESPN draft analyst Mel Kiper is currently projecting Penn State quarterback Michael Robinson as a 7th round draft pick, at best. Mel feels Robinson does not project as a quarterback at the next level, but believes the 220 pounder may be able to play safety in the NFL, due to his size, athletic ability and toughness.

ESPN draft analyst Mel Kiper is currently projecting 5' 7", University of Miami wide receiver Sinorice Moss as a second round draft pick, based on his speed and special teams potential.

ESPN draft analyst Mel Kiper is a big fan of Southern California guard Duece Latui, who's done a nice job in Mobile. Kiper has said Latui is a solid 2nd round possibility, with an outside shot at being selected in the latter part of round.

Over on the Skins board they are happy the dude is dropping to the second round, so the Skins have a shot at Santana's little brother.
