Who do you like for the first pick of the NFL Draft?

I personally loved watching Darren McFadden run the ball. He could stiff-arm a dude into submission. Any thoughts on it anyone?

I also saw where DF ran a 4.3 40 yard dash. He is only .2 seconds off of me but it is still impressive!

I don't know.... I guess I just don't follow football enough to know...

McFadden is also a fumbling machine. He fumbled something like 23 times in 3 years.
He also has trouble running between the tackles, has off the field issues, and durability questions. There's no doubt he's the most explosive player in the draft but so was Reggie Bush. Many teams have Mendenhall rated above McFadden at the RB spot.
With that said, it comes down to need. If Miami keeps the pick, they probably will not take McFadden. I think Long will be the top pick. Maybe Ryan.
I personally like Cedric Ellis.

Some interesting thoughts to consider. I watched Mendenhall and I was impressed too. I don't think McFadden has much trouble running anywhere as he can roll some body up quick. Off-field troubles, perhaps. By long do you mean Jake Long?

I actually hope it is me. But then again I have formally declared for it yet.

I think it will be Long or Dorsey.

ESPN said yesterday that McFadden might drop down as far as the sixth pick, or whichever slot the NY Jets have for their first pick.

I don't watch football either. I like college football okay. But wouldn't walk across the street with a sideline pass to watch the Super Bowl.

Jerry Jones is an idiot. He would be foolish to trade Barber for McFadden. But, he's an Arky pig too. Dallas needs WRs and DB help first, OL help second, DL help third, and RB fourth. As a Dallas fan, I'd be pisssssssed if he traded Barber away.

I tell ya one thing the Bears need a quarterback. How bout Tim Tebow when the Bears go 0-16 next year? He'll be a junior.
