try top 6

we are all huffing and puffing about who top players are definitely going to be right now, but a bad Combine, bad pro day, interview, etc can make your stock PLUMMET

Fun to read back sometimes or no?

Heck. You think GB thought they'd get Rodgers last year? STL thought they'd get Jackson? Peoples stocks go up and down all the time.

I would love Huff here, but like everyone else I'm pitching for an OT.

I'd almost bet the farm that Gruden won't draft OT at #23. Gruden looks a lot at pure raw talent and difference makers, also special teamers that can contribute rather quickly. An OT at this spot may be sitting on bench. You forget Gruden tends to prefer the established players and even the stud rookie OL struggle alot of times out of the gate.

If you don't believe me look at his first picks in Tampa, then also compare with Oakland.




2005 - Carnell, Ruud
2004 - Clayton, Cooper
2003 - White, Simms (more of best player available than difference maker)
2002 - Walker, Stephens

2 RBs
2 WRs
2 LBs
1 DE
1 QB

Except for the QB, players that their positions tend to be able to contribute rather early in rotations, special teams, etc.
