The top 2 names will be 1st rd picks I'm quite certain of that

Yeah, some MDs have Winston Justice and McNeil going into the 1st Round as well.

Time to trade down, if we don't deal with it in free agency.

OT & ILB's to be had in the second.

I've seen some mock drafts having us take Marcus McNeill in the 1st.

[conner01]

a good chance 5 could go in rnd 1.

for sure -- I meant that the 2nd round is where we are going to find value. I can't see us going RT with #18 overall unless one of those top 2 guys are still on the board.

I like McNeill and Winston both better than Justice.

I would really love to get home town kid Scott.

that's more a need pick than a good pick.

[jbsg02]

Winston Justice might be the best fit for our team.

NFLDraftCountdown has him ranked as the 2nd best tackle and the 10th best prospect overall. He very well may not be there when we pick at 18.

Marcus McNeill may be our man at 18

McNeil is worth every bit of a #18 pick, IMO.

RT could be sewn up for a decade. Between he and Adams, a combination could be found that would keep the edges of our O-Line in Pro Bowl form.

[fortdick]

Ryan O'Callaghan friom Cal isn't on your list, and should be.

Here is his profile:

I agree 100%. I am getting a bit nervous though because i have heard McNeill has some form of stenosis narrowing of the spine. hope it isnt anything serious.

I'd also put on that list Daryn Colledge from Boise State....he may be one of the top 3 pass blocking LT's in the draft. I watched him in two games...I was impressed enough to think he's a top 6 or 7 OT this year...one of the better pass blockers and very solid in the run. Needs to add about 15 lbs, but runs about 5.0/40 with very quick feet. If we took him in the second to play LT...i'd be pretty happy, he has a ton of upside. Very athletic and smooth kid...not a lumbering type player.

Has Joe Thomas declared? I have not seen him play, but understand he's a great athlete with tons of upside as well...maybe the most athletic of the bunch next to Ferguson.
