Scott Wright came out with his new top 100 list today...

http://www.draftcountdown.com/Rankings/TOP.php

Initial impression, Burfict too high, Konz too low.

burfict, poe (is he a ngata level talent?) too high

hightower over burfict any day...orson charles over hightower?

yeah, no

wonder how strong this draft is looking at that list...

Obviously I could be wrong here, but I'm not a big fan of Jeffery. Reminds me of David Boston.

Not saying we need another WR with a #1 pick, but Kendall Wright seems to be climbing into our range.

Packers throw out a set that looks like this... Jennings, Nelson, Jones, Driver, and Finley.

Chiefs could go... Baldwin, Breaston, Wright, Bowe, and Moeaki.

This is from Tony Pauline today...

Who is going to throw them the ball?

If the plan is to let Stanzi compete, then go ahead.

That Kendall Wright comp seems reasonable to me. He was overshadowed a bit by RG3 but he has some huge upside.

He is the potential gamebreaker that every NFL team covets.

I know he is not a total board favorite, but Orton could find an open receiver and get the ball to them... Baldwin open in the endzone not withstanding on the one play that has been beat to death around here.

I hear ya but Orton isn't on the team so we'd have to sign him first.

I'm OK with that. Orton with Stanzi as the back up, and if Stanzi beats him out... GREAT!

I don't see why they would sign him when they have Cassel under contract, though. :(

I agree. And I don't get the guys who say Orton=Cassel. Eyeball evaluation from my TV at home was that contest is not even close in Orton's favor. Not saying Orton is the long term solution. Just a much better option for now.
