It really shows that picking in the top 10 is still a crapshoot. 50% of the top 10 picks in the 2005 and 2006 drafts can be comfortably called "busts".

It shows that it may be better to pick an OT (Smith, Oher), who both seem to be more of a sure thing than an Orakpo, Maybin (converted DE to OLB), or Raji.

I'd love to see either Smith, Smith, or Oher on the board at #9.

it doesn't matter if it's an OT or not, must I ring this name? "Tony Mandarich"

LOL! Touche.

I don't think any of these guys are the "can't miss, 'roided up, best linemen prospect ever, future hall of famers" type.

I just see all 4 of the tackles as safer picks than Orakpo, Maybin, or Raji.

I'm a bit on the opposite boat here ... would rather have orakpo or raji then andre or oher.

leaning more towards orakpo atm ...

smith definately has motivation issues and personality issues; raji well perhaps. Oher doesnt seem to be too bad in that department although hes speratic in his play.

Orakpo potentially has knee issues but has been going up the charts in the latest drafts.

That's is why I'm just hoping for an impact player at 9 regardless of position.
Why is Jerry Kramer not in the Hall of Fame?
