EXCLUDED. Unless it was a cant miss guy. I would never take a RB, MLB, or guard in the 1st round.

I would never say never.

However, RB and G are understandable.

If take a RB if I thought I was getting a Barry sanders or AD type. For me, it's WR, FB, TE

I'm not a fan of taking RBs early

But if it's a later first round pick, a huge need, and the prospect looks like they're going to be your work horse back for the duration of their rookie contract then you pull the trigger.

I wouldn't discount an entire position. Drafting in the first round is usually about trying to get a can't miss guy. I'd rather a big time guard, rb, or mlb than whiffing on QBs like tons of teams do.

It would be hard to take a kicker but hell Janikowski has been the raiders best player for quite a while.

I wouldn't look at kicker/punter. Outside of that I'd probably take best available guy that fills a need. Teams get killed by bad OL and LB play all of the time so I wouldn't have guard or MLB on my list for sure.

I would draft basically any of these positions outside of K/P

I just wouldnt pay them after their rookie contract

With the current rookie wage scale, everything is on the table except for punters and kickers.

Anyone who says anything other than kicker or punter is stupid.
