Starting with the Saints all the way down to the Rams with the first pick, Draftseason will be taking an in depth look at each team.  We’ll analyze their needs, track free agent gains and losses, and then figure out a plan of attack the team will take for the first three rounds of the draft.  Keep checking back as new teams will be added daily, and teams will be updated as new free agents are signed or lost.

INDIANAPOLIS COLTS

Team Needs: Defensive Tackle, Offensive Line, Defensive End, Cornerback, Backup Quarterback.   For a more in depth looksy click here  http://www.draftseason.com/2010-nfl-draft-team-needs/indianapolis-colts-nfl-draft-team-needs/

Free Agent Losses:  Jim Sorgi QB

Free Agent Signings: Andy Alleman OG

Potential Draft Targets:  Round 1: DT Brian Price, DT Jared Odrick, DT Terrencey Cody, OG/C Maurkice Pouncey, OT Charles Brown, DE Everson Griffen. 
Round 2: DT LaMarr Houston, DT Cam Thomas, DT Arthur Jones, OG John Asamoah, OG Vladimir Ducasse, OT Selvish Capers, DE Alex Carrington, DE Corey Wootton
Round 3: DT D’Anthony Smith, DE Brandon Lang, DE Greg Hardy, OG John Jerry, QB Dan LeFevour, QB Tim Tebow, CB Javier Arenas, CB Brandon Ghee

Plan of Attack:  The Colts have big needs at defensive tackle and have been poor against the run for many seasons now.  The problem is that the top 5 DTs:  Suh, McCoy, Williams, Price, and Odrick will likely be off the board by the 31st pick.  With the front office pinning their Super Bowl loss on the offensive line, it’s a safe bet to think that is the area they will address with their first pick.  The top options who could still be on the board would be  G/C Maurkice Pouncey from Florida or OT Charles Brown from USC. 

If they do indeed address the offensive line with their first pick they should look at a defensive tackle in round 2.  Lamarr Houston from Texas is a hard working  player who gives his all on every play and would be a nice fit.  Cam Thomas is another defensive tackle they could look as he excels at using his large body to stuff the run.

In round 3 they could look at adding a backup QB since longtime clipboard holder Jim Sorgi has moved on to the Giants, and current backup Curtis Painter is downright terrible.  Dan LeFevour from Central Michigan would be an ideal pick if he’s still around or they could look at Tebow or maybe even Tony Pike at that point.

New Orleans Saints Plan of Attack

Starting with the Saints all the way down to the Rams with the first pick, Draftseason will be taking an in depth look at each team.  We’ll analyze their needs, track free agent gains and losses, and then figure out a plan of attack the team will take for the first three rounds of the draft.  Keep checking back as new teams will be added daily, and teams will be updated as new free agents are signed or lost.

NEW ORLEANS SAINTS

NFL Draft Team Needs: Outside Linebacker, Defensive Tackle, Defensive End, Safety.
For a more in depth look click here: http://www.draftseason.com/2010-nfl-draft-team-needs/new-orleans-saints-nfl-draft-team-needs/

Free Agent Losses: OLB Scott Fujita

Free Agent Signings: None

Potential NFL Draft Targets: Round 1: DTs: Brian Price, Jared Odrick, Terrence Cody.  OLBs: Sean Weatherspoon, Jerry Hughes
Round 2: DTs:  Lamarr Houston, Tyson Alualu, Arthur Jones, Cam Thomas.  RB: Dexter McCluster, OLBs: Thaddeus Gibson, Navorro Bowman, Daryl Washington.
Round 3: DEs: Greg Hardy, Lindsey Witten, Brandon Lang. S: Kam Chancellor, TJ Ward, Myron Rolle

Plan of Attack: The Super Bowl champions will have to sit and wait all evening to make their pick but chances are a nice player will fall to them at 32.  They would love to get their hands on one of the top defensive tackles but the only one they may get a crack at would be Terrence Cody and the jury is out on whether or not he’s first round material.  The best value at 32 would be at outside linebacker especially if the high energy Sean Weatherspoon is still on the board.  He gives them much needed youth at that position plus he is an upgrade over Scott Shanle and the recently departed Fujita.

 In round two the Saints can get that defensive tackle to pair with Ellis, and Arthur Jones could be just the man to fill that need if he checks out medically. 

In the third, they could go with a defensive end like Greg Hardy, or take a safety like hard hitting Kam Chancellor.  Saints fans should expect a heavy dose of defense early on Draft Day.

Free Agency and the 2010 NFL Draft

Karlos Dansby to the Dolphins – Giants fans will be happy that the Dolphins have filled a big need at inside linebacker with Dansby. This gives them a better shot at grabbin McClain at pick 15. Right now the only huge threat would be the Broncos, but depending on what happens with Brandon Marshall they could still be a lock to grab Dez Bryant.

Kyle Vanden Bosch to the Lions – Not that this really changed much, but the Lions will now more than ever be looking forward to grabbing whatever defensive tackle is on the board at #2. The Lions defensive line could quickly become respectable in 2010, something the Lions have lacked in years.

Antrel Rolle to the Giants – Fills a big need for the Giants, which will most likely steer them away from grabbing a guy like Earl Thomas in round 1. If McClain is off the board it will be almost a sure thing that the Giants go defensive tackle.

Dunta Robinson to the Falcons – Again, fills a good size hole for the Falcons, they could still use a mid to late round pick on a corner/safety. But look for the Falcons to go directly towards the defensive line and linebackers early.

NFL Combine Winners

Bruce Campbell OT, Maryland – Campbell impressed first at the weigh in as he measured in at 6′6 and 314 lbs.  He then shocked everyone in attendance when he ran a 4.85 forty yard dash.  Campbell performed well in the rest of the drills and helped his stock to the point where he is considered a sure first round pick.

Trent Williams OT, Oklahoma – Williams ran the second fastest forty time among offensive tackles with an impressive 4.88 seconds.  He posted the best vertical jump amongst the offensive lineman and showed good agility and athleticism.  Like Campbell, Williams has assured himself a spot in round 1.

Dorrin Dickerson TE, Pitt – Dickerson surprised many when he posted the best forty time among the tight ends.  He ran a blazing 4.40 forty.  He also had the best vertical and broad jumps in the entire tight end groups.  With fellow prospects Gronkowski and Hernandez unable to work out, Dickerson gained some ground with his impressive performance.

Golden Tate WR, Notre Dame – Tate headed into the workouts with a lot of eyes on him and he lived up to the pressure.  He ran a very solid 40 time of 4.42 seconds.  Tate ran very good routes and showed solid hands in drills and he did it all while wearing some fancy gold colored shoes.  He looks to have done enough to put him in the late first round with teams like Cincinnati, Baltimore, and New York Jets as possible landing spots.

Jacoby Ford WR, Clemson – Ford caught the eye of scouts with a pants dropplingly fast 40 time of 4.28 seconds.  He also ran very good routes, caught the ball well and stood out just about every chance he got.  With recent Combine burners like DeSean Jackson, Mike Wallace, and Johnny Knox finding early success in the NFL, teams will likely target Ford in the second or third round.

Ben Tate RB, Auburn/Toby Gerhart RB, Standford - Both bigger backs turned in some great 40 times (Tate 4.43/Gerhart 4.53), not bad for being a few of the bigger backs at the combine.  Both proved to be more of the overall athletic running backs in the 2010 class.

NFL Combine Losers

Dan LeFevour QB, Central Michigan – No prospect in the entire Combine took as much heat as LeFevour did for not throwing.  He chose not to, not because of injury, but because he wanted to throw to receivers he is comfortable with. NEWS FLASH Dan: When you get to the NFL you’ll be throwing to brand new targets, and scouts WANT to see you throw to unfamiliar receivers.  With this decision teams will question LeFevour’s competitive spirit and with good reason.

Tony Pike QB, Cincinnati – Just didn’t look all that great all day. Pike has the most to gain after the other top quarterbacks opted not to participate. Didn’t look absolutely horrible but didn’t stick out amongst the others as he should have. I like Pike and his potential so hopefully he comebacks at his pro-day to wow scouts.

Throughout the 2010 Draftseason, we’ll be pitting two highly regarded prospects against each other and evaluate them on different aspects of the game and see which one emerges victorious.  Today it’s a the battle to be the first rush linebacker off the board as Michigan’s Brandon Graham duels Texas’ Sergio Kindle

1. SIZE: Graham is listed on his team’s website as 6′2 and 263 pounds.  He is probably closer to 6′1 so he doesn’t exaclty have the ideal height teams are looking for.  Kindle on the other is listed at 6′4 and a generous 255 pounds so he is on the lean side, maybe too lean.  Teams will have to decide if they want to sacrafice height for bulk and vice versa.  Clearly a toss up.
ADVANTAGE: PUSH

2.  DURABILITY/CHARACTER: Kindle does have some concerns about both his durability and his character.  He has missed a few games over his career with ankle and knee injuries but the real red flag will be about his DWI in 2007 and the incident last year where he drove his car into an apartment complex and then fled the scene.  Graham missed one game in 2008 with an infection in his leg, and there aren’t any concerns about his character.
ADVANTAGE: GRAHAM

3. COVERAGE SKILLS – This is an area where Brandon Graham will really have to focus his rookie year.  He isn’t a natural athlete and played most of his college career with his hand on the ground.  He does move well for his build and he should be able to cover a tight end adequately.  Kindle is very athletic and did play some outside linebacker in a 3-4 in his time as a Longhorn.  His overall speed, athleticism, and experience gives him the edge in this category.
ADVANTAGE: KINDLE

4. PASS RUSH: Kindle relies on his speed and quick burst to get around lineman.   He uses his long arms to create separation and then will burn around the man trying to block him.  His closing speed is very good and he has a motor that just won’t quit.  Graham also shows a good burst off the line but uses strength and power to get to the quarterback.  He can fight through a block and get to the ball carrier but is also explosive enough to get around a lineman on speed alone.  This is an area where these prospects are pretty evenly matched.
ADVANTAGE: PUSH

5. VS. THE RUN: Graham is solid against the run as he his strong enough to battle through blocks and get down to the ball carrier.  His tackling is very good, and he plays with a lot of intensity and doesn’t quit.  Kindle  is also a sound tackler with good technique.  He can get overpowered but uses his elite speed to pursue the ball carrier and track him down.  His motor stands out on film as he seems to have an endless supply of energy and is always going 100 mph.
ADVANTAGE: PUSH

6. PRODUCTION: Kindle’s stat line looks like this: 148 tackles, 16 sacks, 1 fumble forced.  That was accomplished in 4 seasons at Texas.  Graham spent the same amount of time at Michigan and his stats are as follows:  138 tackles, 28 sacks, 0 fumbles forced.  Kindle leads two of these categories but Graham has a big lead in the sack department, and we all know guys with sacks get the chicks.
ADVANTAGE: GRAHAM

CONCLUSION: Graham edges out a 2-1-3 victory, but shouldn’t feel to comfortable in his victory as these prospects are very closely matched.  Graham will need to work on his coverage skills to be an effective 3-4 outside linebacker while Kindle will need to add some bulk to his frame to hold up in the NFL.  Kindle’s character issues could push some more teams Graham’s way, but in the end, both of these players could make an immediate impact in their rookie seasons.

Colt McCoy, QB, Texas – With the top dogs opting not to throw at the combine (Tebow, Bradford, Clausen and now LeFevour) all eyes will be on McCoy. This will be McCoy’s best shot at getting himself into the first round. He doesn’t have to completely wow scouts but just prove he has the arm strength that is needed for the NFL. If he can prove that along with showing off his athleticism and smarts it is possible he could get back into first round talk, if not he could find himself slipping anywhere from round 2 – 4. UPDATE: Colt McCoy has announced he will not throw at the combine.

Anthony Davis, OT, Rutgers/Bryan Bulaga OT, Iowa – Both of these guys will most likely be off the board by the 20th pick of the first round. What will be interesting to watch is if they can actually un-seed the overall tackle in the NFL Draft, Oklahoma St.’s Russell Okung. As of now Davis is a close second with Bulaga kind of a wild card. Bulaga is the better overall prospect but Davis has more potential of being the better long-term franchise tackle coaches dream of. Davis should have no problem opening some eyes with his big frame and athletic ability, so it shall be interesting.

Myron Rolle, S, Florida St. – People will be watching Rolle at the combine for the same reasons they watched at the Senior Bowl, to see if he is really worthy of a high pick. We all know Rolle can play football, but the question marks remain on how long he will play and if he will have the desire teams loo for. If Rolle can blow people away with his times and technique GMs/coaches might be able to forget about the fact he is a wild card.  With a great combine showing Rolle could go as early as round 2.

LaGarrette Blount RB, Oregon/Mike Williams WR, Syracuse – Here are a couple of prospects who will need to do well in the interview portions of the Combine.  Blount will have to face questions about the incident of punching a Boise St. player after a game and then the tantrum he threw afterwards, while Mike will face questions about his academic fraud and the reasons he left the Orangmen halfway through last season.  Both of these players are extremely talented on the field, but will need to show teams they have their heads on straight.

Jermaine Gresham TE, Oklahoma – Gresham is an elite tight end prospect who has rare speed at the position.  He will be eager to show teams that he is 100 percent recovered from that knee injury that forced him to miss his Senior season.  If Gresham checks out medically and runs a fast 40 time, he will solidify his status as a mid first round propsect.  If he shows up out of shape, slow, and with some lingering injury effects, his stock will take a major tumble.

Players that would fit perfectly into a few teams NFL Draft plans

Some players just seem like they belong on certain teams. Whether its the way they play the game fitting in with a team’s offensive or defensive system, or if it’s just a case where need and value meet.  Here is a look at a few of this year’s prospects and what teams would give them THE PERFECT FIT.

1. New York Giants and Rolando McClain – The Giants have a huge need in the middle of their defense with the recent release of Antonio Pierce.  This is another blow to a unit that struggled mightily last season.  McClain is a very smart linebacker who can get his teammates lined up in the right positions.  He also has good size and speed and brings a firey, competitive attitude to the table.  He is exactly what the Giants need to get their defense back on track.  The problem is he will likely be off the board when they pick at 15, so they may  need to trade up if they want to secure his services.

2. Jacksonville Jaguars and Derrick Morgan – The Jaguars registered a pathetic 14 sacks as a team last season.  That is a number that is completely inexcusable.  They have to generate more of a pass rush if they want to be a playoff caliber team.  Morgan is the top pass rusher in the draft with his combination of speed and power.  He has a motor that never quits, and uses a wide varitey of pass rushing moves to keep lineman off balanced.  There is a pretty good chance he’ll be on the board when the Jags pick and they would be foolish to pass him up.

3. Miami Dolphins and Dez Bryant – The Dolphins have lacked a true no. 1 receiver for many years.  The combination of Ginn, Bess, Hartline, and Camarillo does not exactly strike fear into the defenses they face.  Bryant would be a huge upgrade and fill a massive need.  He has great size and speed, runs fluid routes, and has great hands.   Bryant is truly and elite talent and would be the Dolphins primary receiver the day he steps foot in camp.

4. Pittsburgh Steelers and Mike Iupati – The Steelers offensive line has been a spotty bunch as of late, allowing Ben Roethlisberger to take a serious beating.  The Steelers have a history of tough nasty blockers and Iupati would fit that mold to a T.  Iupati is a big boy who can line up at guard or right tackle.  He is tough, phsyical and plays mean.  Iupati has Steeler written all over him.

5. Minnesota Vikings and Dan Williams - The Vikings defense has prided themselves on shutting down their opponents running game.  With big boys Pat and Kevin Williams clogging up lanes, teams have struggled on the ground and sometimes given up trying to run the ball at all.  The issue is that Pat Williams is down to what may be his last year in the leauge, and his play showed signs of tailing off last season.  Enter Dan Williams.  Williams is about 6′3 and 330 pounds, and he excels at stuffing the run.  He could come in and play with Pat for one year and then take over.  The best part is that the Vikings can still use the term “Williams Wall” for years to come.

6. New Orleans Saints and Dexter McCluster – There is a good chance the Saints will be shaving their Bush this offseason, and will be looking for a versatile offensive weapon to take his place.  McCluster is exactly that.  He can line up at RB or split out to receiver.  He is lightning quick and is a threat to score every time he touches the ball.  He is exaclty the type of weapon coach Sean Payton loves to play with and knows how to use.

Throughout the 2010 Draftseason, we’ll be pitting two highly regarded prospects against each other and evaluate them on different aspects of the game and see which one emerges victorious.  Today it’s a the battle for supremacy at the defensive end position as South Florida’s Jason-Pierre Paul duels Georgia Tech’s Derrick Morgan.

1. SIZE: Derrick Morgan stands an impressive 6′4 and 272 pounds which will be much to the delight of scouts and G.M.s.  If you looked in the dictionary under prototypical NFL defensive end body you wouldn’t find anything.  But if there was such an entry, you’d see a picture of Jason Pierre-Paul.  He stands 6′6 and 260 pounds.  That is exactly the kind of size NFL teams will be drooling over.
ADVANTAGE: PIERRE-PAUL

2. SPEED: Pierre-Paul relies on his speed and quickness off the snap when pressuring quarterbacks.  For a man his size he can really move well.  Morgan has above average speed but isn’t as quick as Pierre-Paul and falls into an early hole in this competition.
ADVANTAGE: PIERRE-PAUL

3. PASS RUSHING: Morgan is a relentless pass rusher who uses a combination of speed and power to get to the quarterback.  He can fight through double teams and also has a wide variety of pass rushing moves in his arsenal.  Pierre-Paul uses his elite speed to his advantage when rushing the passer.  He doesn’t have the strength of Morgan to fight through double teams, but can get leverage with his long arms and frame.
ADVANTAGE: MORGAN

4. VS. THE RUN: Pierre-Paul tends to get too high which allows him to get blocked off the ball.  As noted above he isn’t as powerful as Morgan and is susceptible to double teams.  He has the frame and ability to excel in this area but he will definitely need a lot of work from the team that drafts him.  Morgan is very solid vs. the run.  He has more of a stout build which he uses to stay low and fight through would be blockers.  He plays with a lot of intensity and always fights to get to the runner.
ADVANTAGE: MORGAN

5. MOTOR: Morgan has a relentless motor.  He is fighting as soon as the ball is snapped and doesn’t let up one bit until he hears a whistle.  He shows great backside pursuit and can catch up to a ball carrier long after he thinks he is in the clear.  Pierre-Paul shows a good initial burst off the snap but will often let up too early when pursuing a ball carrier from behind.
ADVANTAGE: MORGAN

6. PRODUCTION: Pierre-Paul is a raw player with one one year of Division 1 football under his belt.  In that year he managed 42 tackles, 6 sacks, and 1 interception.  Morgan played 3 seasons at Georgia Tech and amassed 112 tackles, with 18 sacks, and no interceptions.  To make this a little more fair we can average out Morgan’s stats to 37 tackles, and 6 sacks over 3 years.
ADVANTAGE: MORGAN

CONCLUSION: After falling into a early 0-2 hole Derrick Morgan scores 4 unanswered points and wins.  While Pierre-Paul has the frame and speed scouts love, he is just too raw of a player to take over a guy like Morgan.  Morgan has a great combination of speed, power, and size and is truly an elite and complete defensive end prospect.

Every year by the time Draft Day comes, most experts think they have the Draft pegged.  But every year good players fall and teams make selections that no one sees coming.  To try to replicate that surprise factor, we are going to do a random mock draft where 4 players will be available to each team based on need, and then the selection will be drawn randomly.   Let’s see what happens.
