NFL draft.

Matt Ryan from Boston College should be the first pick in the draft. At 6’4” he looks to go to the Miami Dolphins. Many are comparing him to Ben Rothislberger of the Pitts burg Steelers. Another player who may not be going as high as some expected is Darren McFadden an All-American tailback from the University of Arkansas. Some doubt his explosive ability when hitting the line of scrimmage. He still seems the best back of the pack but this draft doesn’t seem very full of quality backs. Did I mention Chris Long?
He is a rare combination of speed and strength
He registered 14 sacks last season despite drawing double teams from opposing offenses. He is 6-4, 284, and lists a 4.80 40-yard dash time.  He may be a surprise first pick if Matt Ryans mobility and Darren Mcfadden explosiveness are questioned. There is another Long, Jake Long that could go to a team looking to bolster its offensive line. Long is an offensive tackle and as good as they come in this position. He will go in the top 5. Another interesting prospect that can do almost everything is Felix Jones. He can be a tailback a running back or even wide receiver. He is a supreme kick returner and may be a surprise in how high he goes.
