Trent Richardson is the one I expect to fall out of the top 10. I would not be surprised to see him fall into the 20's. It's not that he is not super talented, but this draft has some good running backs in it and the league has learned over the years that good rb's can found late in the draft. I think even teams that have him ranked as the best player on their board will past him up just because of that.

I don't think he will be on the board when we pick, and I don't want us to trade up for him. I do think he will drop far enough to where it would be possible though.

I could see Blackmon take a Crabtree-esque fall.
That would be a huge jump for Streeter, if Al Davis were around...

I can see Silatolu finding his way into the end of the 1st.

There's always smokescreens but TB seems to be pretty in love with him. Don't see that happening.

I really wouldn't be surprised if Blackmon fell out of the top 10 because the Rams are the only team that could take him in the top 10. Here are some tweets from a couple weeks ago about Blackmon...

Dane Brugler, NFL Draft Analysis for NFLDraftScout.com, a partner of CBSSports.com
"Many in the NFL don't consider Blackmon the top 10 guy that fans do...a chance he's not the top WR off the board"

Benjamin Allbright, NFLDraftMonsters.com
"I've had Floyd as the top WR for some time now. Off Field stuff seems non-issue. Brings more (than Blackmon) to the table."

Eric Galko, Optimum Scouting
"As @AlfieBCC pointed out, it really should not be surprising if Blackmon DOESN'T go Top 10. He's not elite. Not going to save STL, JAX, MIA"

RosterWatch, twitter of ESPN Radio Austin
"I believe whole-heartedly that Michael Floyd has the best chance of any WR in this draft of being a STUD #1."

Eric Galko, Optimum Scouting (in response to RosterWatch)...
"@RosterWatch Of the top 3, best chance for sure. Think only he, D.Jones, Jeffery, Hill have true #1 WR potential. (Blackmon w/creative OC)"

Trent Richardson drops out of the top 5. I think teams are realizing that you don't have to spend a top pick to get a solid RB.

Chandler Jones is a surprise top 10 pick.

Because they won't trade up to get him?

Matt Moore is their SAVIOR! I don't understand what the reason would be to get rid of him when they have actual glaring holes in their team such as WR, OLB, NT?, ILB.

No way Blackmon drops out of the top-10.

Blackmon doesn't get separation.

Indianapolis (2-14) - Luck
Washington - from St. Louis (2-14) - Griffen
Minnesota (3-13) - Kahlil
Cleveland (4-12) - Richardson (I think they'll trade out of this spot)
Tampa Bay (4-12) - Reiff
St. Louis - from Washington (5-11) - Claiborne
Jacksonville (5-11) - Perry
Miami (6-10) - Ingram
Carolina (6-10) - Cox
Buffalo (6-10) - Coples

^^^ After last year's success with 3-4 OLBs, teams won't be as hesitant to select even some of the more risky prospects early
