    I'm starting to believe they'll take Claiborne @3

    If they don't trade

    Maybe so, but that still doesn't mean Kalil will fall to #9.

    No we won't get a shot at either of those guys. There is just no sure thing DOMINANT prospect this year and we aren't the only team in the top 10 that is going to be disappointed. The guy that has the best shot at dominance IMO is probably Blackmon. Depending on where he goes he's got to be the front runner for rook of the year.

    I'm not sure if there will be a dominant WR in this draft. I actually think Stephen Hill has the best chance of being dominant out of all of the WRs.

    Want - Blackmon although he's not going to fall that far


    Who we'll take - Coples and as a huge UNC fan I'm not thrilled with this. I just don't see the same things from him that I saw from Peppers at this point... If we were drafting in the 20s I'd be fine with taking him there but at 9 I think people are going to be disappointed.

    If Alshon Jeffery really keeps his weight below 225 I think he could end up being one of the better WR's out of this draft.
    Reuben Randle as well put up some impressive numbers in an amazingly conservative offense with terrible QB play.
    I don't think we need to go WR early in this draft by any means.

    Good point about Randle. He's getting no buzz from the draft analysts but could end up being really productive.

    I'm hearing Buffalo is "talking" with Minnesota to move up to three to take Kalil. Cleveland, Jacksonville, and Miami are the wild cards. I am assuming Tannehill goes to at worse Miami at #8, and I'm praying Jacksonville takes Coples rather than the rumored Michael Floyd or a host of other names.

    At nine with the assumed names off the board I think DeCastro and maybe Gilmore are the only "sure thing" Gilmore's physical play is VERY intriguing

    Really like Gilmore. 9 may be early, but sometimes you just have to get a great player at a position of need and not worry about the slotting.

    Gilmore fits that.
