NCAA Tournament First Round PreviewWith the first round of the tournament to start in a less than a day, what games do I think could be possible blowouts and upset, as well as the most intriguing first round matchup in each region?
-
Quentin Groves: Where Will He Go in the NFL Draft?Quentin Groves is of the new breed of defensive ends, fast and small. He has a questionable work ethic though and is injury prone due to his small frame. Is he still a first rounder and could he go to the team that started the small defensive end trend, the New York Giants.
-
Reggie Smith: Where Will He Go in the NFL DraftReggie Smith is a versatile cornerback/safety who could attract teams in the late 20s. He hits like a safety and runs like a cornerback. He has some fundemental issues and can be fooled by crafty receivers, but he has great upside. Where will he go?
-
Early Doucet: Where Will He Go in the NFL Draft?Early Doucet is a guy who is relatively mysterious because he was only the main guy for one year at LSU, although it was a great year, and because he missed the Combine due to injuries. Still, scouts say he is a late first round caliber receiver. Who will draft him?
-

-
Gosder Cherilus: Where Will He Go in the NFL Draft?Gosder Cherilus could be a big steal because of the fact that he played in the shadows in Boston College's trenches and the fact that teams might be afraid to take him because of his character issues and off the field actions. Is he still a first round pick?
-
Kentwan Balmer: Where Will He Go?Kentwan Balmer is a defensive tackle who has some issues fighting through tackles and has motivational issues. However, he could still go to a team that uses a 3-4, 2 defensive tackles, late in the first round because of his upside. Where might that be?
-
Limas Sweed: Where Will He Go in the NFL Draft?Limas Sweed was a top ten pick caliber wide receiver before injuring his wrist and missing most of last season. Can a strong showing at the combine resurrect his first round draft status and what team needs a wide receiver badly enough to take a risk on him?
-
Chris Williams: Where Wil He Go in the NFL Draft?Chris Williams is an interesting player. He is the most mature offensive lineman mentally, but not physically, but scouts say he has room to get bigger. Combine that with this deep offensive tackle class and you've got a guy who could go anywhere from #12 to the 2nd round.
-
Dominique Rodgers Cromartie: Where Will He Go in the NFL Draft?Dominique Rodgers Cromartie, cousin of NFL Pro Bowler Antonio Cromartie, is a small school cornerback with big time athletic ability. He solidified himself as a first round pick with strong showings at the Combine and Senior Bowl, but where in the first will he be taken?
-
Defensive End Calais Campbell: Where Will He Go in the NFL Draft?Calais Campbell's draft stock was at a high after his sensational sophomore year in 2006, but plummeted a bit after his lackluster 2007. That, and the fact that this is a deep defensive end class, could cause Campbell to fall in the draft. Who will scoop up this 6'8" menace?
-
DeSean Jackson: Where Will He Go in the NFL Draft?DeSean Jackson is one of the most explosive and accomplished kick returnersthe NCAA has ever seen. However, he doesn't have great size or great hands and that could scare NFL teams away from this prospect. Which team will look past his flaws and draft him?
-
Derrick Harvey: Where Will He Go in the NFL Draft?Derrick Harvey is one of the new breed type of pass rushers, the faster kind that used to be seen as undersized. They were made popular by the New York Giants, who won a Super Bowl using them. How will the Giants' Super Bowl victory affect Derrick Harvey's draft stock?
-
Rashard Mendenhall: Where Will He Go in the NFL Draft?Rashard Mendenhall came out of nowhere last season to lead Illinois to the Rose Bowl and become one of the strongest running backs in all of the NCAA. Now, he's projected as a first round pick in the NFL Draft. Where will he be drafted?
-
Defensive End Phillip Merling: Where Will He Go in the NFL Draft?Drafting good pass rushing defensive ends and defensive tackles seems to be the thing to do in this upcoming draft because of the way the Giants upset the Patriots in the Super Bowl. How will that affect the draft status of Clemson's pass rushing DE Phillip Merling?
-
Aqib Talib: Where Will He Go in the NFL Draft?Aqib Talib may have had the best overall season of any college corner last season at Kansas, but due to the upside of two other cornerback prospects, he could slip into the mid 1st round. Who will eventually take him and could he be the eventual biggest steal of the draft?
-
San Diego Padres Season PreviewHow will the San Diego Padres fare during this upcoming season?
-
Ryan Clady: Where Will He Go in the NFL Draft?Ryan Clady may be the best pass blocking offensive lineman in the draft. However, he has been overshadowed by big name, big college offensive tackle Jake Long. How will that hurt his stock and where will he be drafted?
-
Jeff Otah: Where Will He Go in the NFL DraftJeff Otah probably is the overall strongest player in this NFL draft class, but his 5.56 40 yard dash time was one of the worst in NFL history. Can teams look past his lack of speed and focus on his amazing strength? Where will he be drafted?
-
Kenny Phillips: Where Will He Go in the NFL Draft?Kenny Phillips is the best safety prospect in the draft this season and he is built in the mold of former Miami Hurricane safeties Ed Reed and Sean Taylor. Will he have as successful of an NFL career and what team wants him to play for them next season?
-
Malcolm Kelly: Where Will He Go in the NFL Draft?Malcolm Kelly is the stat sheet wonder who holds several Oklahoma receiving records despite only playing for 3 seasons and has off the charts athleticism. He is projected as the top wide reciever in a weak receiver class. What does that mean for his draft stock?
-
Mike Jenkins: Where Will He Go in the NFL Draft?Mike Jenkins has the experience of playing against big time wide receivers in college, but does that mean that this star cornerback will be the first corner taken in April?
-
Brett Farve Retires; Aaron Rodgers to Take OverBrett Favre announced his retirement today, but is he actually retired? If he is, how will backup Aaron Rodgers be as the team's new quarterback both next season and longterm?
-
Vernon Gholston: Where Will He Go in the NFL Draft?Vernon Gholston was a sack machine on an Ohio State team that made the National Championship game. But, because of the amount of talented pass rushers at the top of this draft class, he could fall. How far will he fall and where will he play next season?
-
Brian Brohm: Where Will He Go in the NFL Draft?Brian Brohm showed tremendous skills as a 3 year starter at Louisville, so much so that if he declared for the draft last season, he likely would have gone first. How will his decision to come back to Louisville for his senior season hurt his draft stock?
-
Leodis McKelvin: Where Will He Go in the NFL Draft?McKelvin was unproven last year at Troy University, but he may be the most athletic and have the most upside of any defensive player in the draft. Where will he be drafted?
-
Sedrick Ellis: Where Will He Go in the NFL Draft?Sedrick Ellis was a strong force in USC's defensive last season and won Pac 10 defensive player of the year.

-

-
