Round 1
- Cincinnati Bengals
QB Carson Palmer - USC
The Bengals have reportedly agreed in principal on a contract with Palmer ensuring that he will be the top pick in the draft. Drafting the ultimate replacement for a 31 year old journeyman starter with a career 72.9 passer rating and a history of making the big mistake at the wrong time seems to make sense, especially considering the Bengals focus on improving the defense through free agency. Signing Palmer before the draft so that he can immediately begin learning the offense and working with the coaching staff makes even more sense.- Needs: QB, DB, G/C, WR, DE
- Other Options: none
- Detroit Lions
WR Charles Rogers - Michigan St
This pick is not the no brainer it seemed to be just a few days ago. There has been some talk recently that Matt Millen might change directions and draft Terrence Newman with this pick, but when push comes to shove it will be tough to pass up Rogers. The Lions need to give Joey Harrington more talent to work with on offense. The decision by Ricky Williams to return to school and the unfortunate injury to Willis McGahee clearly makes Rogers the best offensive skill position player available. Doesn't hurt that Rogers is a Michigan native that grew up in Saginaw and played his college ball at East Lansing.- Needs: WR, RB, OG, DL, OLB
- Hope might be available: no one
- Other Options: CB T Newman, trade down
- Houston Texans
WR Andre Johnson - Miami (Fla)
The Texans laid the foundation on defense in their first season and now must get help for David Carr on offense. The most glaring weakness is a lack of gamebreaking offensive skill position talent. Adding RB Shane Mack through free agency should help, but the receiving corps still needs a major upgrade. The Texans could trade down, but if they want a top offensive playmaker they can not move down more than a pick or two. Johnson possesses an impressive combination of size, speed, and hands. There is a major dropoff from Johnson to the next best receiver.- Needs: WR, OLB, OT, FS, DE
- Hope might be available: WR C Rogers
- Other Options: DT D Robertson
- New York Jets (from Chicago)
DT Dewayne Robertson - Kentucky
The Jets packaged the 13th and 22nd pick to move up for a chance at a true impact player. Robertson did not work out at the combine, but at Kentucky's pro day ran 2 sub-4.9 forties at 324 pounds and did 30 bench press reps of 225 pounds. Not just a workout warrior, he consistently beat double teams at Kentucky making big plays in the backfield despite being the focus of the opposition. Should Robertson not fall to this pick, the Jets would be perfectly happy with either Johnson or Kennedy.- Needs: DT, LB, WR, CB, OG
- Hope might be available: WR A Johnson
- Other Options: DT J Kennedy
- Dallas Cowboys
CB Terrence Newman - Kansas St
New head coach Bill Parcells is said to be enamored with Dewayne Robertson, but Newman is more than just a consolation prize. He should become an immediate starter, providing blazing speed and solid coverage skills. The only slight knock on Newman is that he will turn 25 before the start of his rookie year.- Needs: DE, RB, CB, QB, DT, TE
- Hope might be available: D Robertson
- Other Options: DT J Kennedy, trade up
- Arizona Cardinals
DE Terrell Suggs - Arizona St
The Cardinals are basically starting over. They have a number of needs on both sides of the ball and could go in just about any direction with this pick. A big play performer that broke the NCAA single season sack record with 22, Suggs would give Arizona an explosive edge pass rusher that can immediately contribute. The Cardinals were dead last in the NFL in 2002 with a paltry 21 sacks and an improved pass rush can only help the defensive backs.- Needs: WR, DE, QB, CB, LB
- Hoped might be available: WR A Johnson, CB T Newman
- Other Options: DT J Kennedy, QB B Leftwich
- Minnesota Vikings
DT Jimmy Kennedy - Penn State
The Vikings are still looking to add bulk on the defensive line after being foiled in their attempt to draft Ryan Simms last season by a last second trade between the Cowboys and Chiefs. On the field Kennedy is an overpowering player with a quick first step and the lower body strength to handle double teams. Kennedy looks to be a perfect fit beside Chris Hovan, although he has been a bit of a disapointment in postseason workouts.- Needs: DL, FS, LB, WR, CB
- Hope might be available: CB T Newman, DT D Robertson
- Other Options: CB M Tufant, trade down
- Jacksonville Jaguars
QB Byron Leftwich - Marshall
Leftwich has prototypical size, a cannon arm, and the leadership skills to develop into a franchise QB. He showed remarkable toughness playing through a stress fracture in his lower leg as a senior. Leftwich was medically cleared at the combine and solidified his spot in the top ten at a workout for scouts in mid-April. Leftwich would have time to grow into the job behind veteran Mark Brunell.- Needs: WR, CB, RT, OG, LB
- Hope is available: WR A Johnson
- Other Options: OT J Gross, CB M Trufant
- Carolina Panthers
OT Jordan Gross - Utah
The Panthers' agressive targetting of offensive skill position talent in free agency resulted in the signings of Jake Delhomme, Stephen Davis, Kevin Dyson, and Ricky Proehl. Now Carolina needs to focus on building an offensive line to protect their investments. Gross is the best bet of all the offensive lineman in this draft to have immediate success. He is a natural left tackle that has enough toughness and aggresiveness to start his career on the right side.- Needs: CB, OL, TE, WR, FS
- Hope might be available: WR A Johnson
- Other Options: CB M Trufant
- Baltimore Ravens
QB Kyle Boller - California
Boller rocketed up draft boards based on a breakout senior season and impressive post season performances at both the Senior Bowl and combine. Brian Billick has gotten by with a string mediocre QBs by emphasizing ball control and defense. Boller would give Billick the opportunity to develop a wide open offense more reminiscent of his work in Minnesota. The Ravens find themselves in an interesting situation with this pick. By most accounts Billick is very interested in Boller, but Ozzie Newsome reportedly is not sure Boller provides enough value at this spot. If the Ravens do attempt to trade down and still select Boller they need to be careful with the Bears now owning the 13th pick.- Needs: WR, DL, QB, OT
- Hope might be available: DT J Kennedy, QB B Leftwich
- Other Options: trade up for Leftwich, trade down for Boller
- Seattle Seahawks
DT Kevin Williams - Oklahoma St
Williams opened some eyes at the Senior Bowl after not always getting the recognition he deserved playing in Stillwater. A productive multiyear starter, Williams has a quick first step and excellent speed. The Seahawks need an upgrade across the entire defensive front. Taking Williams over a top defensive end would provide them with a disruptive force against both the pass and the run.- Needs: DL, FS, LB, OL, CB
- Hope might be available: DT J Kennedy
- Other Options: CB M Trufant, DT J Sullivan
- St. Louis Rams
CB Marcus Trufant - Washington St
The trade of a 2004 second round pick for Kyle Turley gives the Rams more flexibility with this pick. Mike Martz is reportedly looking to add speed and athleticism to his defense. Trufant is a fluid athlete with above average recovery speed. He was very impressive at the Senior Bowl and a solid forty time at the combine solidified his status as a top pick. Having Trufant available at this point is really a best case scenario for the Rams. Don't be surprised if a team like the Saints or Cheifs put together a package to move into the top 10 for Trufant.- Needs: CB, LB, OL, TE, WR
- Hope might be available: no one in particular
- Other Options: LB B Bailey
- Chicago Bears (from Washington thru NY Jets)
DT Jonathon Sullivan - Georgia
The Bears defense had success two years ago with DTs Kevin Traylor and Ted Washington clogging the middle. Sullivan would provide that type of huge presence which MLB Brian Urlacher sorely missed last season. Sullivan is a young, developing player with a solid frame and a quick first step.- Needs: DL, OT, SS, QB, OLB, RB
- Hope might be available: QB K Boller
- Other Options: DE C Kelsay, DE J McDougal
- New England Patriots (from Buffalo)
DT Ty Warren - Texas A & M
The run on defensive lineman is in full gear. This is a bit early for Warren, but Bill Belichek can not risk having him selected before the Patriots second pick in the first round. Warren is a talented player with an impressive combination of size and quickness that needs to improve his conditioning and consistency.- Needs: DT, OL, DE, RB, CB
- Hope might be available: DT J Sullivan
- Other Options: trade up for DT D Robinson or DT J Kennedy
- San Diego Chargers
LB Boss Bailey - Georgia
Although the Chargers really need to upgrade the defensive line, they are also very thin at LB after dealing Junior Seau to the Dolphins. Bailey provides good value with this pick having slid a little farther than expected because of the run on defensive lineman. The younger brother of Redskin corner Champ Bailey has the speed of a DB and enough size to thrive at OLB. The main knock on Bailey is that he sometimes overpursues and misses tackles. That should be correctable.- Needs: DT, OL, S, CB, LB
- Hope might be available: DT J Sullivan, DT T Warren
- Other Options: DT W Joseph, OL E Steinbach
- Kansas City Chiefs
DE Chris Kelsay - Nebraska
Current reports indicate that Dick Vermeil prefers Kelsay over the other remaining DE prospects. He is a tall, lanky player with a nice burst around the corner. Kelsay came on as the season progressed after missing time with a torn hamstring. He solidified his place as a first rounder at the combine by running 2 sub-4.75 forties while carrying 273 pounds on his 6'4" frame. The Cheifs could try to trade down for Kelsay figuring other teams that might take a DE would have Michael Haynes and Jerome McDougal rated higher.- Needs: DE, WR, DB, RB, MLB
- Hope might be available: CB M Trufant
- Other Options: CB S Davis, CB A Woolfolk, trade down
- New Orleans Saints
DT William Joseph - Miami (Fla)
Joseph is a disrupted lineman blessed with incredible quickness. His stock has fallen somewhat after an inconsistent senior campaign in which he was part of a DT rotation because of the high talent level in the Miami program. Joseph would be a nice compliment to run stuffers Grady Jackson and Norman Hand.- Needs: CB, LB, DT, SS, TE
- Hope might be available: DT J Sullivan
- Other Options: LB E Henderson, trade up for CB M Trufant
- New Orleans Saints (from Miami)
C Jeff Faine - Notre Dame
Faine is a tenacious, physical presence with impressive quickness and technique. He has the ability to step right in with guards LeCharles Bentley and Kendyl Jacox to form one of the best interior lines in the league.- Hope might be available: no one in particular
- Other Options: S T Polamalu, CB S Davis, CB A Woolfolk
- New England Patriots
OL Eric Steinbach - Iowa
Steinbach played OG at Iowa, but has the size and athleticism to play LT. He was named the Big 10 offensive lineman of the year. The scary thing is that Steinbach is still learning the intricacies of his position after being recruited as a TE.- Hope might be available: no one in particular
- Other Options: DE M Haynes, LB E Henderson, RB L Johnson
- Denver Broncos
DE Michael Haynes - Penn St
Haynes is a relentless worker with the knack for making the big play. He took many by surprise as a senior leading the Big 10 with 14.5 sacks and 22 tackles for a loss. He also was credited with 7 forced fumbles. Haynes was the defensive MVP of the Senior Bowl. After tweaking a hamstring at the combine, he re-established himself as a player on the rise with a solid on campus workout.- Needs: DE, CB, S, OT, OLB
- Hope might be available: OL E Steinbach
- Other Options: CB S Davis, CB A Woolfolk, OT K Harris
- Cleveland Browns
CB Sammy Davis - Texas A & M
The Browns need to find immediate starters for a defense decimated by cap related cuts. Davis was a 3 year starter at A&M that put to rest questions about his speed with blazing postseason workouts. He is a smart player that should be able to step in quickly and play.- Needs: LB, CB, OL, DT, TE
- Hope might be available: LB B Bailey, OL E Steinbach
- Other Options: OT K Harris, LB E Henderson
- Chicago Bears (from NY Jets)
QB Rex Grossman - Florida
The Bears trade down allows them to draft a run stuffing defender and a QB of the future. Grossman is an accurate passer that understands the game and can make all the required throws. He is a bit of a riverboat gambler that needs to develop more consistency.- Hope might be available: no one in particular
- Other Options: DE J McDougal, OT K Harris
- Buffalo Bills (from Atlanta)
DE Jerome McDougal - Miami (Fla)
The Bills still need to improve their pass rush after upgrading the rest of their defense through free agency after freeing up cap space with the trade of Peerless Price. McDougal provides tremendous speed and lateral movement. He drops mostly because at 6'1" he is not as tall as some teams would prefer.- Needs: DE, WR, FB, S, CB, TE
- Hope might be available: DE M Haynes
- Other Options: WR K Washington, TE J Witten
- Indianapolis Colts
S Troy Polamalu - USC
Polamalu has a reputation as a leader and a hard worker. He is a physical player that was utilized more like an extra linebacker than a traditional safety in Pete Carroll's scheme at USC. Polamalu ran two sub-4.4 forties at his on campus workout. His vertical jump was 43� inches and his long jump was 10'7". Although his coverage skills are still raw, there is really no reason with his athleticism and work ethic that he should be unable to develop into a solid pass defender. Polamalu's main drawback is a lack of protypical height at 5'10". His vertical leap somewhat offsets that concern.- Needs: OLB, S, OG, CB, DT, TE
- Hoped might be available: no one in particular
- Other Options: LB N Barnett, S M Doss, CB A Woolfolk
- New York Giants
DL Kenny Peterson - Ohio St
Peterson burst onto the national scene as a major component in Ohio State's unlikely National Championship run. He capped off his breakthrough season with a dominating performance in the Fiesta Bowl. Peterson is a versatile lineman that could legitimately line up at either DT or DE in a 4-3. He would serve a dual purpose for the Giants, in the best case scenario providing a huge presence at DE oppposite Michael Strahan while also acting as insurance at DT in case Keith Hamilton fails to return from his torn achilles tendon.- Needs: DL, LB, OL, WR
- Hope might be available: DE J McDougal
- Other Options: OT K Harris, trade up for a DL
- San Francisco 49ers
OT Kwame Harris - Stanford
Harris is a huge, athletic RT with the skills to move to the left side in time. Harris drops a bit farther than expected because he is not quite as physical as most teams would like. That should not be a huge issue in the Niners scheme.- Needs: DL, OT, CB, WR
- Hope might be available: QB R Grossman, DT K Peterson
- Other Options: OT W Hunter, WR T Jacobs
- Pittsburgh Steelers
CB Andre Woolfolk - Oklahoma
The Steelers desperately need to add speed and athleticism to their defensive backfield. They are reportedly trying to move up to procure the services of Troy Polamalu, but if that fails can still be expected to address their main shortcoming on defense. Woolfolk is a raw prospect that only moved to CB full time as a senior. His play lagged down the stretch when opponents started to avoid junior Derrick Straits. After watching his draft stock plummet with a poor showing at the Senior Bowl, Woolfolk has climbed back into first round consideration by displaying top athleticism in drills at the combine and Oklahoma's pro day. He could contribute as a dime back while continuing to learn the CB position.- Needs: CB, S, OT, DE, QB
- Hope might be available: CB S Davis, S T Polamalu
- Other Options: RB L Johnson, trade up
- Tennessee Titans
RB Larry Johnson - Penn St
Eddie George is beginning to slow down and the Titans need to start thinking about finding his ultimate replacement. Johnson solidified his position in the draft with an impressive Senior Bowl performance and pro day workout. A big back with deceptive speed, Johnson provides an added dimension because of his ability to contribute in the passing game.- Needs: WR, CB, RB, OLB
- Hope might be available: no one in particular
- Other Options: WR T Jacobs, DB R Mathis, WR K Washington
- Green Bay Packers
LB EJ Henderson - Maryland
There has been alot of talk about the Packers drafting a QB for the future. Unforunately for them no one they really like is available. One thing is certain, Green Bay can use all the help at LB that they can get. Henderson lacks the blazing speed most teams covet, but is a playmaker that on the field has shown sideline-to-sideline range against the run.- Needs: LB, QB, DT, OL
- Hope might be available: QB R Grossman, DT T Warren
- Other Options: QB C Simms
- Philadelphia Eagles
TE Jason Witten - Tennessee
Witten is the best all around TE available in this years draft. He is a tenacious blocker with the speed and hands to be a major component in the passing game. Witten is actually still learning the TE position after moving from DE as a sophomore. Chad Lewis is starting to slow down and Witten would provide Donovan McNabb with a much needed weapon. There has been alot of talk that the Eagles are enamored with TE LJ Smith, but should Witten fall this far they would have to strongly consider changes their plans.- Needs: TE, WR, DE, LB, OG, RB
- Hope might be available: LB E Henderson
- Other Options: RB W McGahee, trade down for TE L Smith
- Oakland Raiders
WR Kelley Washington - Tennessee
Washington is a major wild card in this draft. He is a top athlete that spent time in the Florida Marlins system. Some scouts thought he outplayed 2002 first rounder Donte Stallworth during the 2001 season. Washington suffered a neck injury in October that required spinal fusion surgery. He has been medically cleared to play, but the injury and Washington's perceived attitude problems will be a concern for some teams. The Raiders are in a position to gamble on his obvious talent.- Needs: DE, FS, RB, WR, G/C
- Hope might be available: C J Faine
- Other Options: DB R Mathis, RB W McGahee
- Oakland Raiders (from Tampa Bay)
DE Cory Redding - Texas
Redding is a bit of an enigma on the field. A physically gifted player that looked like he should be dominant on the college level, Redding had a tendency to disapear during stretches of games. He could legitimately drop out of the top 50 after being thought of as possibily a top 10 talent entering the season. Redding is a first rounder because of the Raiders acute need at the DE position plus their belief that they can get the most out of a physically gifted underacheiver.- Hope might be available: C J Faine
- Other Options: DB R Mathis, RB W McGahee
Round 2
- Cincinnati Bengals - S Mike Doss - Ohio St
- Detroit Lions - RB Willis McGahee - Miami (Fla)
- Chicago Bears - DE Calvin Pace - Wake Forrest
- Houston Texans - OT Wayne Hunter - Hawaii
- Arizona Cardinals - WR Taylor Jacobs - Florida
- Dallas Cowboys - RB Chris Brown - Colorado
- Jacksonville Jaguars - WR Bryant Johnson - Penn St
- Minnesota Vikings - DB Rashean Mathis - Bethune Cookman
- Baltimore Ravens - OT George Foster - Georgia
- Seattle Seahawks - DE Tyler Brayton - Colorado
- St Louis Rams - TE LJ Smith - Rutgers .
- Washington Redskins
WR Tyrone Calico - Middle Tenn St
It is hard to shake the nagging suspicion that with their first pick in the draft the Redskins will be unable to fight the inclination to add another offensive toy for Spurrier. Calico displayed an intriguing combination of speed, size and athleticism at the combine and in his individual workouts. He does need to work on improving his concentration and consistency.- Needs: DT, S, DE, WR
- Carolina Panthers - CB Eugene Wilson - Illinois
- San Diego Chargers - DT Rien Long - Washington St
- Kansas City Chiefs - RB Justin Fargas - USC
- Buffalo Bills - TE Dallas Clark - Iowa .
- Miami Dolphins
OT Jon Stinchcomb - Georgia
The Dolphins are looking for a blind side pass protector that can step into the lineup immediately. Stinchcomb started 46 games in his college career. Considered a bit undersized after playing at about 285 pounds, Stinchcomb solidified his draft status at the combine by weighing 302 pounds and doing 32 reps of the 225 pound bench. Stinchcomb is an intelligent player known for his solid technique and excellent footwork. He is the brother of Raiders OT Matt Stinchcomb. There is some speculation the Dolphins may try to put together a package to move into the lower part of the first round after they dealt a 2004 2nd rounder for an extra 3rd round pick.- Needs: OT, S, WR, QB
- New England Patriots - RB Lee Suggs - Virginia Tech
- Denver Broncos - CB Dennis Weathersby - Oregon St
- New Orleans Saints - LB Terry Pierce - Kansas St
- New York Jets - S Julian Battle - Tennessee
- Cleveland Browns - DT Nick Eason - Clemson .
- Atlanta Falcons
S Ken Hamlin - Arkansas
The Falcons only have one pick on the first day and need to find some immediate help for their depleted secondary. Hamlin is a big, rangy, hard hitting safety with solid coverage skills. There is really little question about Hamlin's ability on the field, but two drunk driving arrests in the span of 14 months before the start of last season could scare some teams away.- Needs: DB, OL, DL, WR
- New York Giants - OT Brett Williams - Florida St
- San Francisco 49ers - QB Chris Simms - Texas
- Indianapolis Colts - LB Nick Barnett - Oregon St .
- Pittsburgh Steelers
LB Antwan Peek - Cincinatti
Peek is the classic 4-3 DE/OLB tweener the Steelers look for as a 3-4 OLB project. He would immediately provide a presence as an edge pass rusher in the nickel package while being groomed to eventually replace Jason Gildon. Peek is an athletic player with a very quick first step that looked good in LB drills at the combine where he did a full workout. Peek measured in at 6'2�" and 246 pounds and ran two forties at 4.60 or better. He had an impressive 37 inch vertical leap and did a solid 21 bench press reps of 225.- Hope might be available: S J Battle, RB C Brown
- Other Options: DE J Johnson, S T Kiel, RB M Smith
- Tennessee Titans - CB Drayton Florence - Tuskegee
- Philadelphia Eagles - DE DeWayne White - Louisville
- Philadelphia Eagles (from GB) - WR Kevin Curtis - Utah St
- Oakland Raiders - OG Vince Manuwai - Hawaii .
- Tampa Bay Buccaneers
RB Onterrio Smith - Oregon
Smith is a versatile back with explosive speed that based on talent alone is a borderline first rounder. He is available at this spot because of off the field issues. Smith was kicked off Tennessee after testing positive for marijuana and was arrested for drunk driving not long after arriving at Oregon. Coming off a Super Bowl victory with their first pick at the end of the second round the Buccaneers are in a position to take a gamble.- Needs: OL, FS, CB, RB
Round 3
- Cincinnati Bengals - OG Torrin Tucker - Southern Miss
- Detroit Lions - CB Kevin Garrett - SMU
- Houston Texans - DT Jarrett Johnson - Alabama
- Chicago Bears - RB Musa Smith - Georgia
- Dallas Cowboys - TE Bennie Joppru - Michigan

- New Orleans Saints - S Terrence Kiel - Texas A&M
- Miami Dolphins - WR Kareem Kelly - USC
- Houston Texans - DE Tully Banta-Cain - California
- Cleveland Browns - LB Shurron Pierson - South Florida
- New York Jets - WR Walter Young - Iowa
- Houston Texans (from Atl) - S Nnamdi Asomugha - California
- San Francisco 49ers - DE Kindal Moorehead - Alabama
- Indianapolis Colts - TE Aaron Walker - Florida
- New York Giants - LB Clifton Smith - Syracuse .
- Pittsburgh Steelers
DB Bryan Scott - Penn St
Scott is a smart, physical player that excels against the run. His size and play recognition skills make him an excellent edge blitzer which should be a benefit in the Steelers' scheme. The thought was that he was too slow to remain at CB, but he ran two sub-4.5 forties at his on campus workout. Because of his tackling ability and physical nature he probably still projects as a SS that can cover the TE.
- Hope might be available: S T Kiel, TE B Joppru, LB S Pierson, CB B Strickland
- Other Options: S D Johnson, TE R Johnson, RB C Sapp
- Tennessee Titans - WR Brandon Lloyd - Illinois
- Green Bay Packers - DT Ian Scott - Florida
