Here's an early Top 100 for 2011 from Sideline Scouting:
http://www.sidelinescouting.net/top100/2011/
Guys on this list who I like (juniors with an *, redshirt sophomores with a **):
4. AJ Green*, WR, Georgia. Best WR prospect since Megatron.
6. Robert Quinn*, DE,OLB, North Carolina. Better 3-4 OLB prospect than DeMarcus Ware.
7. Cameron Heyward, DE, Ohio St. A young Seymour.
8. Michael Floyd*, WR, Notre Dame. A power WR, compares well with Dez Bryant without the issues.
9. Greg Romeus, DE/OLB, Pittsburgh. Terrific strongside DE/OLB prospect.
10. Adrian Clayborn, DE, Iowa. I think he's a 4-3 guy, but he's a great player if BB could find a way to fit him in. Incredible functional strength.
14. Bruce Carter*, OLB, North Carolina. A 4-3 OLB, but a terrific playmaker.
18. Jonathan Baldwin*, WR, Pittsburgh. My 2nd favorite WR after AJ Green.
19. Jeremy Beal, DE/OLB, Oklahoma. Versatile high-motor guy in the Jermaine Cunningham mold.
26. Gabe Carimi, OT, Wisconsin. A beast with a nasty attitude at 6'7" 325#.
30. Jared Crick*, DE, Nebraska. Suh's protege. Great physical attributes for the 5 technique.
32. Andrew Luck**, QB, Stanford. 31 spots lower than he will go if he comes out.
40. Ryan Williams**, RB, Virginia Tech. I like him better than Mark Ingram as a feature back. More explosive, better breakaway capability.
42. Akeem Ayers*, OLB, UCLA. Best pure 3-4 OLB prospect in a while, can also play 4-3 SAM.
43. Cliff Matthews, DE/OLB, South Carolina. He's what people thought Ricky Sapp could be.
64. Marcell Dareus*, DE, Alabama. Way too low. He'll be a top 15 pick if he comes out, and will vie with Cameron Heyward as the top 3-4 DE in the draft.
68. Nate Solder*, OT, Colorado. Raw but tremendous physical skills and upside.
75. John Moffit, OG/C, Wisconsin. My favorite interior lineman in the draft. 15 starts at center, 14 at LG. From Connecticut.
79. Lawrence Marsh, DE/DT, Florida. Was injured much of 2009, but very athletic prospect at the 5 technique.
90. Jason Pinkston, OT, Pittsburgh. Former TE, very athletic and underrated OT.
Missing from this list are a couple of underrated RB's who I like: Jacquizz Rodgers from Oregon St. and Daniel Thomas from Kansas St. Both are adept at catching the ball out of the backfield. Rodgers is in the "pocket hercules" mold at 5'7" 193, while Thomas is a bruiser at 6'2" 227#.
Right now, I'd love to see something like the following:
- 3-4 DE: Marcell Dareus or Cameron Heyward if we use our 1a from Oakland; Jared Crick if we use our 1b; Lawrence Marsh in the late 2nd or 3rd round
- 3-4 OLB (or DE/OLB): Robert Quinn if we use our 1a from Oakland; Greg Romeus if we trade back from 1a or up from 1b; Akeem Ayers or Jeremy Beal in the 2nd round
- WR: AJ Green with 1a or Jonathan Baldwin/Michael Floyd with a trade up from 1b.
- RB:Ryan Williams with 1b or 2a, or Jacquizee Rodgers/Daniel Thomas in the 2nd round.
- OL: Gabe Carimi in the late 1st, Nate Solder or Jason Pinkston in the 2nd, or John Moffit in the late 2nd/3rd.
Again, absurdly early. Jonathan Dwyer was my top rated RB at this time last year. But just some names to keep an eye on.
