I think after the early second though, where Jesse Williams, Brandon Williams will possibly go there's a drop off. Very good wideouts could be drafted right the way through round three. Dt is better class, better top end picks, but I think there's more better wideouts than there would be dts.

This is an incredibly fast group...very very good times.

It's funny how almost every year the WR's are killing it in the 40 while the CB's are always lagging behind in the speed category.

It's all good for us. I doubt that much changes for many teams with regards to their rankings from here on out, stock rising and falling is probably more of a media device than actually what teams honestly feel. But if Austin, Patterson and Hopkins are going up the board, and a good amount of QBs are going in the first, it'll push a good defensive player to 32.

Yup. You got it.

The Ravens had an informal meeting with Matt Elam last night and will have a formal meeting tonight.

I'm sure the Patriots will take him if we show any interest.

arthur brown IMO. His weigh in solidified his ability to play inside in a 34. Best coverage linebacker in the draft, tackles well, fights well and gets off blocks, compares very favourably to bowman.

He is like Bowman actually, but I think I think Elam is the better all around player. I would love either player however and trust Ozzie on whoever he picks.

Times by some receivers of interest:

4.25 Austin
4.50 Bailey
4.37 Fuller
4.46 Harper
4.50 Hopkins
4.53 Kaufman
4.46 Patton
4.56 Rogers
4.28 Stills
4.38 Swope
4.34 Wheaton
4.44 Woods

I don't know about the others, but I'm not all over Austin because of speed...this isn't Heward-Bey...Austin is an incredible football player with a ridiculous amount of production to back up every bit of crazy workout numbers...he may be the quickest player on the field that I've seen since Barry Sanders.

I'd be drooling over him if he ran a 4.5...he is that good.

I love Elam as well but he's not a great coverage guy, I'm not sure that's what we need.
