Any way you look at it, I think there is a lot more talent at the top of the 2011 draft than there was in 2010. There are potential blue chip prospects in abundance at QB (Locker, Luck, possibly Ryan Mallett), RB (Ingram, Williams), WR (Green, Julio Jones, Floyd, Baldwin), OT (Carimi, Costanzo, Matt Reynolds, Joseph Barksdale), 3-4 DE (Heyward, Crick, possibly Allen Bailey), DE/OLB (Quinn, Romeus, possibly Beal or Von Miller), 4-3 OLB (Bruce Carter, Travis Lewis) and CB (Patrick Peterson). 2011 won't be nearly as deep as 2010, but it's very rich at the top.
