I wish it was Cody Brown.

Anyway...

1. Tyson Jackson, DE; LSU
Grade: B+
- Everyone seems to agree that this was the best 3-4 DE in the draft and we needed one. However, at the #3 spot he was generally regarded as a bit of a reach. One hopes that Jackson ends up being a clone of Richard Seymour in order to justify this high of a pick in the draft. Crabtree or Curry might have been sexier, Monroe might have provided more immediate help, but no one could argue that our defense was borderline incompetent last season. At least we didn't end up with BJ Raji.

If I was picking: Aaron Curry, LB; Wake Forest

3. Alex Magee, DT; Purdue
Grade: D-
- Completely mitigates three years of high round draft choices on the defensive line. Either our current roster is utterly devoid of talent at the D-line positions, or the current staff feels that no one other than Tank (potentially) is capable of playing in a 3-4 system. If we end up trading guys like Hali, McBride and Dorsey for appropriate picks (1st, 2nd, 1st respectively) or players that will immediately contribute, this pick might make sense, but as of right now, it is completely illogical.

If I was picking: Kraig Urbik, OG; Wisconsin

4. Donald Washington, CB; Ohio State
Grade: D
- Carr and Flowers make this a borderline bad pick just for depth purposes. An offensive lineman (Jon Luigs, Troy Kropog) or a quality wide receiver (Austin Collie or Mike Thomas) would have been a much more understandable and justified pick.

If I was picking: Austin Collie, WR; BYU

5. Colin Brown, OT; Missouri
Grade: F
- Wow. Just wow. Might end up a Pro Bowler, but wouldn't a seventh round pick or a free agent contract been a bit more appropriate, especially considering how many quality, higher regarded offensive line prospects were still on the board? Guys like Duke Robinson, Jamon Meredith and

My pick: Fenuki Tupou, OT; Oregon

6. Quinten Lawrence, WR; McNeese State B-
Grade: C
- Special teamer with speed.

My pick: Darry Beckwith, ILB; LSU

7. Javarris Williams, RB; Tennessee State
Grade: B+
- I like this pick. Guy has good speed, is big in a squatty sort of way, nice hands. Will be a good special teams player and might make his way onto the roster as a Kimble Anders type fullback/H-back type of player.

My pick: I concur with this pick, and mentioned Williams as a potential in one of my mocks.

7. Jake O'Connell, TE; Miami-Ohio
Grade: C
- Seems to be very athletic with really good combine/pro day type numbers. (4.66 in the 40, 28 reps on the bench and a 41 inch vertical) In the seventh, I don't mind taking a high level athlete as a potential special teams guy who can make a push for a tight end spot.

My pick: Ray Feinga, OG; BYU

7. Ryan Succop, K; South Carolina
Grade: B-
- Need help in the kicking game, and picking a kicker here isn't a bad thing. Was pretty consistent prior to the injury in his senior season on both kicks and punts. Not as accurate/clutch as someone like Sakoda, but seems like an okay pick.

My pick: Louie Sakoda, K/P; Utah
