First round | Second Round | Third Round

1. Houston Mario Williams, DE, North Carolina St.
   The Texans have already signed Mario and will pass on Reggie Bush.

2. New Orleans Reggie Bush, RB, USC
   Expect someone to trade up and grab this talented playmaker.

3. Tennessee Matt Leinart, QB, USC
   Leinart is a perfect fit in the Chow offense.

4. New York Jets D'Brickashaw Ferguson, OT, Virginia
   Ferguson is worthy of #1 consideration in a normal year.

5. Green Bay A.J. Hawk, LB, Ohio St.
   Immediately upgrades the Pack's biggest weakness.

6. San Francisco Vernon Davis, TE, Maryland
   Should be a major playmaker for a rebuilding offense.

7. Oakland Vince Young, QB, Texas
   Al Davis loves potential and hype, and Young is loaded with both.

8. Buffalo Brodrick Bunkley, DT, Florida St.
   The Bills need to establish a physical nature up front, and Bunkley does just that.

9. Detroit Michael Huff, DB, Texas
   Huff would immediately upgrade the Lion secondary.

10. Arizona Jay Cutler, QB, Vanderbilt
    The Cards need a backup QB and a replacement for Warner down the road.

11. St. Louis Jonathan Joseph, CB, South Carolina
    The speedster has been on a steady rise since the end of the year.

12. Cleveland Haloti Ngata, DT, Oregon
    Crennell gets his monster nose tackle. Ngata could learn a lot from Ted Washington.

13. Baltimore Winston Justice, OT, USC
    Could step in right away at RT, and be the eventual replacement for Ogden.

14. Philadelphia Chad Jackson, WR, Florida
    The lack a receiver with true goto ability, and Jackson has that potential.

15. Denver(Atl) DeAngelo Williams, RB, Memphis
    Bell has not lived up to his potential yet, and the Broncos need their running game to be effective to run their offense.

16. Miami Jimmy Williams, DB, Virginia Tech
    His versatility fills a lot of holes for the Phins.

17. Minnesota Ernie Sims, LB, Florida St.
    The fastest LB in the draft is a welcomed addition to the Viking front 7.

18. Dallas Kamerion Wimbley, DE/OLB, Florida St.
    Ware and Wimbley off the edge could be a devastating duo.

19. San Diego Tye Hill, CB, Clemson
    The Bolts need to upgrade their pass coverage before trading Sammy Davis.

20. Kansas City Antonio Cromartie, CB, Florida St.
    His potential is too much for Herm Edwards to pass on.

21. New England Santonio Holmes, WR, Ohio St.
    The Pats have only one receiver they can count on: Deion Branch.

22. San Francisco(Den via Was) Manny Lawson, OLB/DE, North Carolina St.
    With the loss of Julian Peterson, the 9ers add the playmaking Lawson to come off the edge.

23. Tampa Bay Eric Winston, OT, Miami
    Winston has top 10 ability when healthy, and could be a major steal at this point.

24. Cincinnati Donte Whitner, S, Ohio St.
    The Ohio St. product gets to stay home and forms a very talented safety duo.

25. New York Giants John McCargo, DT, North Carolina St.
    With the addition of Arrington, the Giants need to upgrade the interior line.

26. Chicago Sinorice Moss, WR, Miami
    They just added Ricky Manning to address the corner spot, now its time to add a playmaker at WR.

27. Carolina DeMeco Ryans, LB, Alabama
    Witherspoon has moved on, and Ryans may be an upgrade.

28. Jacksonville Chad Greenway, LB, Iowa
    Greenway has an attitude that Del Rio will love.

29. NY Jets(Den) Bobby Carpenter, LB, Ohio St.
    Mangini will try and use him like Vrabel was used in NE.

30. Indianapolis Laurence Maroney, RB, Minnesota
    Edge's replacement will provide similar production at a much cheaper salary.

31. Seattle Jason Allen, DB, Tennessee
    Allen provides depth at corner and safety.

32. Pittsburgh LenDale White, RB, USC
    Could be a major steal, and is the ideal replacement for Bettis.
