Surprise surprise. The 3 Bama players are in your top 6 and the 2 Auburn players are in your bottom 3. If you're going to start a thread offering your opinion (which no one wants), at least try to be a little unbiased. Cam would not have gone #1 in the draft if this were likely, and Fairley is in a VERY good situation in Detroit with Suh and Vanden Bosch.

And people might have said the same thing about Ryan Leaf or Akili Smith once upon a time. You never really know.

ETA: I could rearrange 4-6 and it wouldn't matter, I like each of their situations equally.

"List the high profile draft picks in order of how much you like them, then slightly move them around based on how good they are (unless they played for your rival) so it looks like it is based on how good their careers will be"

Better title, IMO

Both QBs who were in bad situations. Alot easier for a QB to be a bust. Fairley is in the perfect situation, as he will be playing off of another great DT. I just don't see how he won't be good as long as he and Suh are on the same DL

1. Peterson
2. Ingram
3. Jones (better team with a stable QB situation)
4. Fairley
5. Green (opposite situation as Julio)
6. Dareus (combine freak but I have yet to see him dominate a game)
7. Mallett

I don't see Cobb, Newton, or Ridley lasting long in the league.

Newton will become a TE after they realize he's Michael Vick with an 1/8th of the brain

And why didn't Derek Sherrod make the list?

1st Rounder, likely Green Bay's LT if they keep Bulaga on the rightside...
