The question I have is with all the solid free agent lineman out there, will they wait til the draft? IF they don;t take a lineman, who do you think they would take? A D-Lineman?

Gallery has the potential to be a Pro-Bowl caliber OT for many years he's that good. So I can't see the Giants passing on him regardless of who is available as a free agent. But, to answer your question, the next most appealing player to the G-Men could be Miami S Sean Taylor. He is rated higher than Roy Williams and Ed Reed were when they came out. They could also look at one of the receivers (Fitzgerald if he drops or Roy Williams).

The Giants also have the second pick in the second round and there will still be some high-quality OTs and OGs available at that point too. It's not inconceivable that they use their first two picks to improve their O-line for a long time to come.
In the second round OG/OT Vernon Carey (Miami) might still be available, as well as OTs Jacob Rogers (USC), Tony Pape (Michigan), Max Starks (Florida) and OGs Chris Snee (BC), Justin Smiley (Alabama), Stephen Peterman (LSU), and Shannon Snell (Florida). Almost all of these players would be solid picks in the beginning of the second round.

I was surprised to see you have Tommie Harris going to Atlanta. I really think Atlanta is going to take a WR. Roy Williams is a great value at the #7 pick. He could be a great play maker to complement Peerless Price.
Being in Redskin country, I am hearing more and more rumors that the Redskins are interested in Sean Taylor,S, Mia. Gregg Williams uses the safety a lot in his defensive packages. Personally, I really think they need Udeze. Their D line is pathetic, but I am just repeating the local scuddlebutt.

I was slightly surprised to that you have the Chicago Bears taking DT Starks out of Maryland. I would be really surprised if Starks went this early.
Second, I don't think Chicagos biggest need is DT. From what I am hearing, I think Lovie Smith is looking for a running back. I think Kevin Jones fits the need. If not then on the defensive side, I think Chicago needs a cornerback more than a DT. But once again, this is just my opinion......
I know you were not considering trades, but if the Bears don't take Kevin Jones, I would look for them to trade down. I don't think there is much difference between Deangelo Hall(Va Tech), Duanta Robinson(South Carolina), Chris Gamble(Ohio St), Will Poole(USC), and Derrick Straight(Okla)

Just to let people know... Jim was away for the weekend and has computer troubles now, so I've been making the picks (we came to concensus on the entire first round before we started). And I'll be offline all of next week, so Jim will be making all the picks.
We're also continuing with the draft we put together a few weeks back. Many things have changed (Clarett, Mike Williams?, combine performances, teams trading players in positions of need, etc) that probably would affect this draft. But not to worry, we'll address all of that in due time.

RB is a tough position to call this year. If Kevin Jones or Steven Jackson slip down to the Cowboys, I have no doubt that they will grab one of them. After those two, however, there might not be any other RB value until round 2. Greg Jones has some baggage - his injury and his attitude (he refused to do any work as a blocking back in the Senior Bowl practices). Chris Perry has some question marks about his ability. He's a solid back, but doesn't do anything that screams first rounder.
I still think the Cowboys will grab a RB in free agency (Corey Dillon, Duce Staley) and draft a RB in the 3rd or 4th round (where there will be some great value - check out the 4th round for RBs last year).
As far as WR is concerned, I heard on Philly sports talk radio today that the Cowboys and Bucs could be talking about swapping Joey Galloway for Keyshawn Johnson. They won't give up on Bryant yet.

You're right... Dillon, however, wants out of Cincinnati and, with the emergence of Rudi Johnson (who is a free agent), I believe Cincinnati will be more than happy to let Dillon go.

As good as Mike Williams is, I don't think he'll go that high. I think he'll be the third WR taken behind Fitz and Roy Williams (although Roy Williams did measure a bit smaller/lighter at the combine than teams expected). I see Mike Williams going somewhere between 10 and 15. (Rashaun Woods is really climbing the draft boards too - many feel he will have the most immediate impact and he ran very well at the combine too.)
It's kind of a shame that he is coming out. I was really looking forward to watching he and Matt Leinart at USC next fall. Regardless, this makes the WR draft pool the best I've seen in my lifetime.
