The following is a list of the Top 10 Prospects at each position by the way I believe they will be selected in the up coming Draft...(not the way that I have them rated). This list could change between now and the Draft due to Pro Day Workouts etc. If these Ratings change it will be posted as an "update"on our main Website page. Note - The Prospects Ht's, Wt's etc are their actual measurements from the NFL Combine, dnp-means the prospect did not participate but their Pro Day Measurements will be added on this page as soon as they work out.

Quarterbacks
This is a good year at the Quarterback position. There are 6 really Good Prospects at the Top, but there is a dropoff after that. I project only 10 Quarterbacks to be Drafted this year.

Halfbacks
Although the Halfback Position lacks a "sure-fire" impact player because of the Willis McGahee injury, there are still quite a few decent prospects and a few Sleepers that could be Drafted in the Middle Rounds that could surprise.
(Round 2)
1. Larry Johnson (Penn State) 6-1 228 40 time - 4.45 225 bench -19 vertical - 41"
2. Musa Smith (Georgia) 6-1.7 232 40 time - 4.45 225 bench - dnp vertical - 38"
Although the Fullback Postion seems to have been fazed out these days this Draft has a few good Prospects this season and is above average overall. But don't expect any of these Prospects to be taken in the first two Rounds.
(Round 4)
1. Casey Moore (Stanford) 6-1.7 240 40 time - 4.65 225 bench - 22 vertical- 32.5"
8. Tom Lopienski (Notre Dame) 5-11.6 246 40 time - dnp 225 bench - 24 vertical- 34"
9. Jeremi Johnson (W. Kentucky) 5-11.2 260 40 time - 4.90 225 bench - 20 vertical - 29"
Wide Receivers
This is a pretty good crop of Receivers with 2 Top Flight prospects at the top and several other Prospects that could be impact players. There are also some solid mid-round Prospects to keep an eye on. Note - Listed 40 times are the Prospects Best Times.
9. Visanthe Shiancoe (Michigan St) 6-4.3 251 40 time - 4.62 bench 225 - 28 vert - 39.5"
(Round 5)
10. John Smith (Rutgers) 6-3.2 258 40 time - 4.65 bench 225 - 26 vertical - 37"
Centers
This is an average year for the Center Position....there are 2 really good Prospects at the top and a few more Prospects in the Middle Rounds that will make the grade.

Defensive Ends
This is a Very Good group with one Top-Level Franchise Prospect at the top and several excellent Prospects that will be Drafted in the first two rounds. The depth after that is above average.
10. Dewayne White (Louisville) 6-2.1 273 40 time - 4.75 bench 225 - 22 vertical - 33"
Defensive Tackles
The Tackle Position is one of the Best in the Draft with as many as 7 really good prospects that could be selected in the First Round. There is good overall depth after that.
