  1. Stafford,

  2. Smith, Jason

  3. Curry, Aaron

  4. Monroe, Eugene

  5. Orakpo, Brian

  6. Smith, Andre

  7. Maclin, Jeremy

  8. Sanchez, Mark – Washington

  9. Jackson, Tyson

  10. Crabtree, M.

  11. Oher, Michael

  12. Brown, Everette

  13. Raji, B.J. – Jacksonville

  14. Jenkins, Malcolm

  15. Jerry, Peria

  16. Freeman, Josh – Tampa Bay

  17. Ayers, Robert

  18. English, Larry

  19. Maualuga, Rey – San Diego

  20. Hood, Evander

  21. Moreno, K.

  22. Britton, Eben

  23. Matthews, Clay

  24. Maybin, Aaron

  25. Cushing, Brian

  26. Heyward-Bey, D.

  27. Harvin, Percy

  28. Pettigrew, B.

  29. Britt, Kenny

  30. Nicks, Hakeem

  31. Wells, Chris

  32. Mack, Alex

As far as the go, I am hoping Knowshon Moreno lands at 21 for us, otherwise we may trade down again since there is no one that stands out at that point.  I think we need to come out of the draft with a RB, a safety, depth on the O-Line, and maybe TE.  Here’s my wish list: Round 1 – RB – Knowshon Moreno/LeSean McCoy, Round 2 – OLB – Clint Sinthim/Marcus Freeman, Round 3 – S – Patrick Chung, Round 5 – OT – Ramon Foster, Round 5 – Trade for 2010 4th Round, Round 5 – TE – Anthony Hill, Round 5 – OLB – Zack Follett, Round 6 – CB/S – Brandon Underwood, Round 7 – QB – Mike Reilly

Time for me to do some housework so I can justify sitting in front of the TV all night long :)   Have a good day all!

So I am downstairs doing laundry and just put a load in so I sit down to follow up on a few things, start FireFox to view a few websites and ESPN.com pops up, my home page.  On the cover was a picture of Brett Favre.  No uniform or anything, just a head sho0t probably from one of his pressers this year.  Well caught a glimpse and looks at me and tells me “Brett Favre is back in .”  I looked over in amazement because I had not told Michelle anything about Favre in a few days.  I can’t tell you how proud I was in that moment :)   He then proceeds to ask “Is he in Washington?”  Now bear in mind Washington was one of the teams rumored to be in the mix for Favre’s services but it hasn’t been discussed in awhile.  And no don’t get any ideas about Washington playing tonight and that’s where he got it from, No.  We hadn’t even discussed being on tonight yet.  So not only did he catch Favre was coming back but knew a potential home for him.  Such love and pride came out of me at that time :)

Anyway just had to share the story.  As it’s been said many a time before…”That’s my boy!”
