1 16 Justin Harrell DT Tennessee
Pat Kirwan's Analysis
I had Justin Harrell going somewhere at this point in the draft because when he regained his health, it demonstrated to the NFL -- with the 35 reps on the bench -- NFL personnel people went back and looked at 2005 game tapes and convinced themselves he was a first-round selection because he has a unique ability to disengage from blockers and make plays in the backfield.

2 63 Brandon Jackson RB Nebraska
Gil Brandt's Analysis
Jackson has a chance to be the real surprise of this draft, as far as running backs go. He reminds me of Frank Gore and Rudi Johnson. A three-year player at Nebraska who left a year early, he's a complete back. He's a real good receiver; you don't have to take him out in passing situations.

3 78 James Jones WR San Jose State
Gil Brandt's Analysis
Jones is a tall wide receiver and he runs a 4.54. He's strong (22 reps) and he had a big season last year (70 catches). He makes the short catches that keeps the chains moving.

3 89 Aaron Rouse SS Virginia Tech
Gil Brandt's Analysis
Rouse (6-4, 223; 4.46) was a former linebacker who was moved to safety. He's a straight-ahead type of runner. I'm not sure he can play safety and can turn and run to cover a receiver, despite his speed.

119 Allen Barbre OT Missouri Southern State
Gil Brandt's Analysis
He went to a small high school, then redshirted at Missouri Southern before becoming a four-year starter. Barbre (6-4, 300) ran a 4.64 and had 28 reps. For a player coming out of an NCAA Division II school that doesn't have a weight program, 28 reps is pretty encouraging -- he can really improve on that in an NFL weight program.

157 David Clowney WR Virginia Tech
Gil Brandt's Analysis
I thought Clowney (6-0 1/4, 188) he had a chance to be a Day 1 pick. He reminds you of Torry Holt. (Clowney looked like a pencil at the Combine.) He's got 4.33 speed, but had only 34 catches and no touchdowns. Heā??s got pretty good hands.

6 191 Korey Hall ILB Boise State
Gil Brandt's Analysis
Heā??s a dynamo with 4.73 speed. Heā??s a tremendously aggressive guy. Iā??m not sure if he will get any playing time at linebacker, but I think he will be a great special-teams player.

6 192 Desmond Bishop ILB California
Gil Brandt's Analysis
He has been an inside linebacker, but his best position in the NFL probably will be as an inside linebacker. He has 4.72 speed. He made 126 tackles last season, including 15 for a loss.

193 Mason Crosby K Colorado
Gil Brandt's Analysis
I picked him for the Playboy All-America team. There was some concern about his credentials because he kicked at altitude, but on a steamy day in September 2005 at Miami , he kicked a 58-yard field goal -- the longest ever in NCAA history at sea level off grass without a tee. He really needs to change his kicking technique. If he finds a good special-teams coach, he can make the change and be successful.

228 DeShawn Wynn RB Florida
Gil Brandt's Analysis
He was an outstanding HS player in Ohio. He's 5-10 3/8, ran 4.50. He's a runner more than a receiver. He gained 700 yards and scored 6 touchdowns last year.

243 Clark Harris TE Rutgers
Gil Brandt's Analysis
He's 6-5 1/2, 261 and ran a 4.80. He has good hands but needs to improve his blocking. He had 34 catches for 2 TDs in 2006.

Have a good one!:jointsmile:
