I really believe in both of these guys, and I wouldn't blame you if you took them as high as the 3rd round. Both have the goods to be productive when they get touches, and are not jitterbugs despite being on the small side. Brown is particularly powerful and was very good in the SEC, the the #1 NFL RB proving ground. Brown lit up the Shrine Game practices and he will soon be featured on Draftguys TV. Forsett was just as impressive at the Senior Bowl. I wouldn't be shocked if either has the impact of Ahmad Bradshaw or Selvin Young in year 1, but like those two, I just don't think a team would ever make either a feature back. Still, both are good enough to get a lot of attention, and have a good temporary value if they get opportunity.

The first safety doesn't make an appearance until the second 50, that should tell you how weak this class is. Phillips actually has a pretty good fantasy profile for a safety, with a mean streak and in-the-box size, but good enough range to hang in coverage. The fantasy landscape of NFL safeties seems to be pretty deep and level, but Phillips should become an everyweek starter pretty early in his career - he's low because he's not exceptional and the position isn't that hard to fill with good waiver wire work.

You have to throw out Hall's poor times, because his instincts allow him to play much faster than his poor 40 times. He also lives to punish offensive players. Hall is only 5'11" but his desire more than makes up for it. He might project best as a two down run stuffer, so his fantasy upside could be limited, but his feel for the game is undeniable.

Carlson actually presents a value because of the poor team the Irish fielded in his Senior season. He's a fearless receiver over the middle, shows the valid speed to rip the seams, and has WR like body control and extension to make for a huge catch radius. I'm just not sure Carlson has the all-around game or quickness to be more than a role player in a passing attack. He'll definitely get downfield and punish poor zone defenses, and be a good red zone target. His upside might be limited to a marginal TE1, but he's more likely to hit his ceiling than Davis or Finley.

Woodson has been taking a beating this postseason, just like Slaton and Bowman, but he's actually a better hope to recover than those two even though he's much lower on the list. He strikes me more as the kind of QB who will have to fight for his shot instead of being anointed, and that saps a lot of fantasy value from a QB prospect. However, if Woodson lands somewhere with foreseeable opportunity in the next 2-3 years, he could join Flacco and Henne, because I see them all with about the same chance of hitting.

Guyton has been overshadowed by Philip Wheeler, but his game might translate better to the pros. He's a high effort guy who has proven to be a better athlete than advertised in the post season. Guyton fit in at the Senior Bowl after replacing Tavares Gooden, and has the range in coverage to be a three down LB. He's a got a great size/speed combo and could become a productive LB if he claws his way into a starting job.

Dizon's built somewhere between NFL LB and NFL strong safety, but he plays all out and was the leading solo tackler in the country with an astounding total of 120. He plays faster than his timed speed, but he still might not be dynamic enough to really make it in a cover 2, which is where he would fit best. Still, it's hard to bet against guys like Dizon. If you prefer instincts, hustle, and production over projectability, Dizon is your guy.

Woodyard is another SS/LB tweener. He doesn't have quite the same natural size as Dizon, but got up to 227 at the combine and still ran a 4.51. Both players were very active tacklers and impressed at the Senior Bowl. Woodyard may project better at safety than Dizon, but neither has the quickness you want in a safety in coverage.

In fairness to Parmele, he's not that far off of Omon or BGE as an NFL RB prospect. He's in the next tier of rookie drafts because I don't think he's got quite the lower body power of Omon/BGE, although he has put up nice times and jump numbers at the combine and definitely belongs on the list of RBs who could easily settle in as a backup who makes an impact here and there in the box score.

Hubbard is a project at WR, and you'll be able to take a closer look on Draftguys TV soon. He's long framed WR with legit NFL speed and body control, but his game is raw. He's a practice squad type who is a good later pick if you prefer upside to conservative picks.

I've never been blown away by Henderson's play and think he could have improved his stock with a healthy Senior season, but he's got plenty of upside as a big chase LB who loves to line up running backs. Henderson could develop into a real thumper, but his injury history is a red flag. If an NFL team is confident enough in his health to take him in the top 75 picks, I'll move Henderson up well into the top 50.

Ainge has never quite lived up to promise or put it together at Tennessee, but you can see flashes. His game is deliberate, but the NFL size is there, and he has at least adequate arm strength, although his frame suggests continuing injury problems in his future. He's good enough to hang around and eventually get a shot, but maybe not do much more.

Davis is an amazing athlete for his size, good enough that he was also used as a rush DE - and he was effective. I still see a receiver who's stiff and a work in progress, but there's no denying that he could become a decent weapon if he becomes more natural catching the ball. Of course, he could also be converted to DE if full time if he clicks there at training camp. An NFL athlete without a real specialty at this point.

Highsmith is quick and plays angry. Some saw him as a top 50 pick until his disastrous 4.95 at the combine. He can rehabilitate his draft stock at LSU's pro day, but the damage may have already been done. He most definitely did not play like a 4.95 LB at LSU, and if I get a good explanation of why he ran so slow, then he might move up 20-25 spots on this list.

This might seem harsh for a TE that was as productive as Rucker, but I don't think he's fluid enough to be a big time receiving threat from the TE position, and he's also not much for blocking. He might be an interesting guy in a west coast offense, but while he's big and fast, Rucker just isn't that agile or athletic - at least not on the level of the TEs ahead of him on this list.

Gooden is another LB with inside/outside versatility in his past, but it could doom him to be a career backup. He's not exceptional run stuffer or coverage LB, and not an elite athlete. He could move up as much as 15-20 spots if he goes in the first three rounds and lands in a good situation.

It's hard to find a WR that was more clutch than Stevie in 2007. He's not blessed with great size or speed, but he's got good hands and could work his way up his team's food chain by being more dependable than the more physically talented WRs.

Larsen gets by more on toughness and desire, and plays more like a poor man's Connor or Beau Bell. Some observers raved about his performance at the Shrine Game, but his limitations stood out as much as his hard nosed game in my eyes.

McClain could be a fast riser if he lands on a team that knows how to harness his versatile skill set. He's got the size to play inside on the running downs, and he also has experience with his hand on the ground rushing the passer on 3rd down. He's not special, but his talent might have been concealed on a terrible Syracuse team.

Dorsey was amazingly productive for a defensive tackle in college, but it seems like he'll be used more to occupy blocks than make plays in the NFL. He could become one of the elite few fantasy DTs and defy his nose tackle role by still being as disruptive in the backfield as he was at LSU, but it's hard to take a DT over offensive prospects because of supply and demand.

Maybe I am underrating Bennett, because he should see a lot of playing time as a good two way TE, and he's athletic enough to be a solid target in an NFL passing game. He just doesn't seem as natural a pass catcher as the guys ahead of him on this list, and I think some of more specialized receiving TEs will outproduce him even though they won't see the field as much.

Torain looked like a well-rounded power back who might have ranked in the top 25-35 on this list before suffering a serious lis franc injury that might keep him out of action through the beginning of the 08 season. At this point, it looks like his best bet is as a short yardage specialist type of back, so he's only worth a late round flyer.

Im not sure what to make of Douglas. He's tough over the middle for a tiny WR, and he seems to have legit field pad speed no matter what his timed speed registered at. Still, he's not a crisp route runner, and is not a shifty dependable slot WR type. Im afraid he has too much of the game of a wideout in a body better suited for a 3rd or 4th WR, and he doesn't have great return skills either - so I'm not sure how he will win a long term job except a stretch the D guy in 4 wide sets.

Washington didn't really deliver until his senior year, but once he did, he showed a tough efficient running style in an NFL body. He could be a solid between the tackles banger who gets a shot at some point due to injury, but Washington lacks the burst or elusiveness to do more.
