The Rams
Where to start? Well the Rams have won a grand total of 6 games in the
past 3 years. Yes 6 game. Having the #1 pick will help though. The
consensus #1 pick right now is Ndamukong Suh but DT is not an area that
is really on the Rams priority list so it will be interesting to see
what the Rams do.
#1: QB: The Rams can and will not go through another season of Marc
Bulger. The sad part is that Marc was a good QB but one can only be
sacked so many times before the confidence starts to go. The big
question the Rams will have is do they reach for one of the top QBs,
try and wait until round 3 or 4 and find a diamond in the rough, or do
they trade for Michael Vick.
Draft Board: Sam Bradford (Oklahoma), Jimmy Clausen (Notre Dame), Dan LeFevour (Central Michigan)
#2: WR: A #1 WR is a huge key to if the Rams will ever return to
prominence. Gone are the days of Isaac Bruce and Torry Holt and a new
era has begun. Unfortunatly that era has started with Donnie Avery and
Laurent Robinson. Dez Bryant would be a great option if the Rams were
in position to take him but they will not reach that high for him.
That is why I think they will use their 2 round pick on a WR. I think
they need a tall WR so that would leave Golden Tate out of the mix and
their should be some nice WRs left in the 2nd Round
Draft Board: Brandon LeFell (LSU), Damian Williams (USC), Arrellious Benn (Illinois)
#3: LB: I feel the Rams are one good LB away from having an above
average LB core. James Lauranaitis was the Rams defensive player of
the year at MLB last year after some people questioned the decision to
draft him over Rey Maualuga. On the strongside, Mr. Irrelavent David
Vorbora has turned into a diamond in the rough after he was suspended
for steroid use early in the 2009 season. Weakside LB still needs to
be addressed though. After trading Will Witherspoon to the Eagles at
the trading deadline, Paris Lenon just could not carry his load over
there so the Rams need to address that issue.
Draft Board: Sean Weathespoon (Mizzou), Navarro Bowman (Penn St.), Pat Angerer (Iowa)

The Lions
Needs: Every position except for Quarterback. Even there, they need a
capable backup... due to Matthew Stafford going into the offseason
injured after missing the last few games after being put on I.R.
That should sum it up... They want to build from the trenches first.
They will take either Suh or McCoy with the #2 pick.... and then, look
for OL help and then defense and more defense.... After all, Jim
Schwarz is a defensive minded coach....

The Buccaneers
This is simple. The Bucs suck. We're looking best available, but here are some key positions:
1: DL/CB/LB/S
2: LB/CB/S/DL
3: S/LB/CB/DL
4: DL/CB/LB/S
We
have no defensive tackles worth shit other than young Roy Miller. Our
Middle Linebacker hates contact. We have 1 corner that deserves to be
on an NFL roster. Barber is good, but so old. Sabby Piscitelli sucks at
safety. We're desperate and we suck. We need anything.
Ya dig?

The Redskins
The Redskins have the #4 Pick in the first round, 5th pick in the
second round, and used their 3rd rounder in the supplemental draft. (We
are only doing three rounds).
Needs- Quarterback of the future should be high on the list. Jason
Campbell probably has had enough of Washington, and Washington has had
enough of him. the Redskins are more to blame for his failure...I don't
think he's played in the same offense in consecutive years in
Washington. So it may be time to move on for both parties, or at the
very least plan for the future.
Possibilities 1st Round- Jimmy Clausen, Sam Bradford/Ndakumong Suh, Eric Berry
2nd Round- Tim Tebow, Colt McCoy, Jevan Snead/ Jahvid Best
It all depends on Bradford's rehab. If Jimmy Clausen is available (if
the Rams don't eat him up), the n look for them to go after Clausen
first. Bradford would be their 2nd choice. And if Clausen is gone, and
Bradford's rehab is not promising, they will take the best player
available...which Could be Suh or possibly Berry.
If they take Suh, they still may be looking for a quarterback. If Tebow
or McCoy, look for the Redskins to take either one of them in the 2nd
round. If they have satisfied their QB position in the first round,
then expect the Redskins to go after a runningback. Potentially Jahvid
Best, should he be around. Really, at this point the Redskins would be
reaching to try to get an offensive tackle here. Strange things can
happen in the draft, and things can change drastically in front of
you...The Redskins maybe the team that cannot miss in the first and
second round if they just take the next best available player.

The Chiefs
Well the
Chiefs won't draft a QB in the 1st round I don't think.
The new regime is in place and I would think that things will be on the
upswing in KCMO. The community was in need of ridding itself of King
Carl and his 5 year plan.
The Chiefs really need OLine help in a bad way. It seems that Russell
Okung is the favorite for their pick at #5. Don't look for them to go
DLine or QB with the #5 pick, but everything else is up for grabs.
Okung is a safe bet at this point unless he has a bad combine.
With the 36th pick it will likely be a best player available thing
excluding QB's. Can't see them going QB, but literally any other
position is a need for the Chiefs.
