Think about all the guys that might go... it's sick.

Dareus (1st round)
Hightower (1st round)
Ingram (1st or 2nd round)
Julio (1st round)
Carpenter (2nd round long shot or later)
Davis (late round pick)
McElroy (who knows... depends on this season)
Maze (probable 3rd round or later)
Hanks (probable late round)
Barron (3rd round or later)

Don't think I'm forgetting anyone. I wonder how long since we've had that many go in the draft.

not sure if any of those would be 1st rounders. hightower has the talent but lets wait and see how he recovers from his injury

Barron is a 1st rounder, no doubt.

You must not have been watching Dareus. If he's not a lock I don't know who could be. (barring injury).

No question Ingram will be a first rounder. People are way underestimating his NFL potential. He doesn't fumble, he runs north/south well, and he has good size.

all great points. however in the NFL the RB position is going down in importance. you can get good quality in later rounds

possible, but there's certainly some question. Some say his stock will decline this year, 'only one way to go' type thinking I guess..

It's certainly possible in a later round. Especially if he has a good season this year.

I agree, McElroy is certainly draftable. If Flynn can get drafted, then Mac can as well.

If he keeps that mystical, voodoo, magic "never-lost-a-game" shite going, he's drafted.

He's short and doesn't return kicks... 6 or 7 rd pick if at all

Ingram (1st or 2nd round)


It depends on his 40 time at the combine, RBs are devalued in today's NFL. I think he'll still wind up in the 2nd round, maybe first if he puts up great combine #s and stays healthy all season.

Agree on Maze. Also don't think Hanks gets drafted unless he has a breakout year.

Ingram, OTOH, is a sure fire top 20 pick, IMO. He'll run in the low 4.5s and put up incredible strength/shuttle numbers.

I think Dareus/Julio/Ingram/Barron are all probably first round picks. Hightower has a very good shot if he can stay healthy and pick up where he left off last year....

I agree with you on the running back issue. I think Ingram is a good back but I could see him being a second rounder just because great running backs fall to the second round.

I do think Dareus is going to be a first round lock.

Julio should be a lock on his combine numbers alone.

Hightower would have been but you never know how a repaired knee is going to recover.

I see Dareus and Julio as locks barring severe injury.

Dareus and Hghtower have alot to prove this year!


Not really. They have both proved enough for scouts to look at them as possible first rounders, barring any further injuries(hightower in particular).

I may have been a little homerish with the rounds I picked for them, but they should all get drafted if they have decent upcoming seasons.

That would be the most we've had in one draft in decades. We didn't have that many after the 92 Championship. Curry, Copeland, Teague and Langham. Can't remember any others.
