Welcome to my 2010 NFL Draft Blog. I will bring you each pick and my analysis of those picks. Stay tuned and enjoy. Picks 1-16
1. STL- Sam Bradford- QB- Oklahoma- Bradford had a rocky 2009 season but this selection is more about his 2008 season. He gained weight and everyone who knows him says he is stud tough. We will have to wait and see how fast he can get used to taking snaps from under center and reading NFL defenses.
2. DET- Ndamukong Suh- DT- Nebraska- Suh simply is a monster. He is a run stopper, a warrior, and a absolute disruption for offenses. The Lions just got much better up front.
3. TB- Gerald McCoy- DT- Oklahoma- McCoy is another beast. he is a better pass rusher then Suh is and should have fans in Tampa Bay reminded of Warren Sapp for a long time to come.
4. WASH- Trent Williams- OT- Oklahoma- Trent will probably start at left tackle from day one. He has excellent footwork and technique. He can definitely afford to get stronger up top though.
5. KC- Eric Berry- S- Tennessee- Berry is the best safety to come into the NFL since Sean Taylor. Berry has range, he can tackle, and most importantly won't be exposed in coverage.
6. SEA- Russell Okung- OT- Oklahoma State- Okung slipped about a pick but its still no drop off between him and Trent Williams. Okung is much stronger in the road grader mode. Pete Carroll made his first pick.
7. CLE- Joe Haden- CB- Florida Haden had slipped in some eyes because of his slow 40 time at the combine. His game speed is top flight and he has shut down corner potential in him.
8. OAK- Rolando McClain- LB- Alabama- Quite simply a outstanding football player. Needs to be more consistent but he is a true play maker and leader.
9. BUF- CJ Spiller- RB- Clemson- Spiller is a flat out burner. He will be used in several different ways. I don't think he is a Chris Johnson but he will be productive. Durability issue abound.
10. JAC- Tyson Alualu- DT- California- a 3 technique who rose up the boards fast. He is a tough kid and with an excellent motor. some say he is a reach.
11. SF- Anthony Davis- OT- Rutgers- Davis is a young stud linemen from Rutgers. if he can grow up a little he should be really productive. The niners needed a left tackle and he fits that need.
12. SD- Ryan Mathews-RB- Fresno State- A beast of a running back. Strong runner and had some big games against good competition. Will combine with Sproles to compliment each other.
13. PHI- Brandon Graham- DE- Michigan- Graham is a high motor, high character guy. Andy Reid has more up his sleave.
14. SEA- Earl Thomas- Pete Carroll is having a good first round. Earl Thomas is a high character player with super star skills. He can cover like a corner and has range like Ed Reed.
15. NY- Jason Pierre-Paul- South Florida- He is a athletic freak who is just starting to come along as a football player. The Giants needed a pass rusher.
16. TEN- Derrick Morgan- DE- Georgia Tech- Morgan is a disruptive defensive end. He doesn't play hard all the time but he is productive.
