Brandon Graham, DE - Michigan |
Most thought the Eagles would go after a Safety after moving up to #13. Instead the Eagles go and get a pass rusher. Graham is very similar to LaMarr Woodley in Pittsburgh. |

Earl Thomas, DB - Texas |
The Seahawks have to be excited. They have seen two great players fall in their laps - one on offense, the other of defense. Thomas can play multiple positions. Pete Carroll getting it done in Seattle. |

Jason Pierre-Paul, DE - USF |
A player no one has really heard of before the combine, Pierre-Paul is a physical freak. He is a bit rough around the edges, but he is just peaking athletically. |

Derrick Morgan, DE - Georgia Tech |
A bit surprised that Morgan lasted this long, but Tennessee will be happy to swoop in and take him. The Titans are rebuilding their defense a bit and Morgan will help that process. |

Mike Iupati, OG - Idaho |
The Niners are not messing around in addressing the offensive line. It speaks well of Alex Smith that the Niners went T and G instead of a Quarterback |

Maurkice Pouncey, C - Florida |
The Steelers get their man. I was hoping the Broncos would move ahead of Pittsburgh to get Pouncey, but with the Niners able to get Iupati at 17, it left Pouncey for the Steelers. |

Sean Weatherspoon, ILB - Missouri |
You get the feeling that this was another player McDaniels was hoping to get - Weatherspoon is a natural linebacker who got a bad rap for playing as a Sr. on a young defense. A stud. |

Kareem Jackson, CB - Alabama |
Jackson is a perfect fit in Houston, where the terminology on defense is the same as in college. |

1-21 |
Jermaine Gresham, TE - Oklahoma |
The Bengals needed a TE and they got a really good one in Gresham. Great target downfield for Carson Palmer |

Demaryius Thomas, WR - Georgia Tech |
The Broncos get their big receiver in Thomas. If not for a foot injury, Thomas would likely have been a Top-10 pick. Good value for the Broncos at 22 as well. |

Bryan Bulaga, OT - Iowa |
Great value for the Packers, who needed to address the O-Line, especially playing in a division with the Vikings. |
