[QUOTE="DCEBB2011, post: 312324, member: 3200"] In your stead, I will throw in my analysis: 1. I strongly believe that Peterson (LSU) is the best CB prospect that is available to be drafted this year. His combination of size (6-1, 222) and speed (4.42e)is unmatched by any DB in college football. He has also competed against higher competition on a regular basis. He is already being touted as a possible HOF player and if he declares, may go top 3. Reminds me a lot of Nate Clements because of his ability to possibly play FS and return kicks. 2. Prince is most likley the 2nd best CB prospect in college football, and is tops among senior CBs, albeit in a weak senior class with only one sure-fire 1st round talent (Jimmy Smith is most likely an early 2nd round talent). Should go top 10 at worst. Plays ball a lot like Leon Hall from Cincy. 3. Jenkins is a curious pick for the #3 CB on this list for a few reasons. First of all, he has a small frame (5-11, 186) and does not possess top-flight speed to go with it (4.52e). That is a lose/lose for a CB in the NFL. Has a style similar to Patrick Robinson of the Saints. In addition, he just had shoulder surgery and will miss the Outback Bowl. Second rounder at best and I would for certain place Brandon Harris above him on this list. 4. Jimmy Smith is the 2nd best senior prospect, and should be above Jenkins for the reasons listed above. He has good size for a CB (6-2, 205) and still has speed (4.49e). He has a concussion in his history which some team docs will consider. He can also play FS in the NFL or become an Antonio Cromartie clone. Late first rounder/early 2nd rounder. 5. I am extremely perplexed with SIs pick of Jarrett as the 5th best DB available for the draft, especially considering that Carter (OK) and Williams (NC) have better measureables and faced better competition. Jarrett has OK size for a FS (6-0, 202) but not blazing speed for the position (4.57e). Reminds me a bit of Louis Delmas from the Lions, but would be a reach to be taken in the 2nd round. Third rounder at best for me. 6. Aaron Williams is another surprising pick. On our board he is the 6th best JUNIOR CB. He has workable size (6-1, 195) and speed (4.49e) but is very, very raw. Think Jamal Reynolds and Robert Ferguson raw. I would even put Harris (Miami), Minnifield (VA), and Burton (Utah) ahead of him. 3rd rounder at best. 7. Gilchrist is another surprise to be ranked here. Once again, I think SI should have placed Carter and Williams ahead of him, as well as Jarrett. Not a big guy (5-11, 190) but the best speed of any senior FS in the top 20 seniors at that position (4.49e). Late 3rd/early 4th rounder at best. 8. Finally SI adds Brandon Burton of Utah! Brandon is a bit thin (6-0, 185), but has speed to play CB in the NFL (4.49e). 5the best CB in the junior class and could be a 2nd rounder if he declares. 9. Robert Sands is another mystery here at #9 overall for all DBs. Big for a FS (6-4, 221) and has some speed (4.57e), but is not very agile. I would fellow junior FS prospects Moore (UCLA) and Tate (Maryland) ahead of him. 3rd rounder. 10. Another surprise to see Carter from OK down this far. Probably the best senior FS in college football. Has decent size (6-1, 200) and speed (4.57) for the position. Should be a 2nd round prospect who looks a lot like Madieu Williams in his style of play. 11. The final prospect SI provides is DeAndre McDaniel a SS out of Clemson. He is the consensus best senior SS and has that coveted size/speed combo (6-0, 215 and 4.54e). It is surprising to see SI have him fall to the 3rd/4th round as I believe he should go in the 2nd round. Look at Josh Bullocks to find a comparison.
