A few board favorites and LSU players that are apparently shooting up draft boards and could be 1st Round picks.

Here's the List:

Joel Bitonio, OT, Nevada
Deone Bucannon, S, Washington State
Kyle Fuller, CB, Virginia Tech
Jeremy Hill, RB, LSU
Cody Latimer, WR, Indiana
Demarcus Lawrence, DE/OLB, Boise St
AJ Mccarron, QB, Alabama
Zach Mettenberger, QB, LSU
Morgan Moses, DT, Virginia
Kyle Van Noy, OLB, BYU

That's some interesting guys that could go in the first round, especially Hill and Latimer. I think Fuller is pretty much consensus first round.

I'd be shocked if he was drafted in the 1st! This is a really deep QB class. No way that happens.

Think you're safe. They have no need for him.

Him and Lynch ... holy god

The more surprise first rounders (and they happen every year) the better. I love chaotic first rounds. I think someone we really like is going to fall right in our lap.

I was surprised not to see Jordan Matthews on that list UNTIL I realized that he's not getting past the Jets at 18.

Exactly, I really hope guys like Bitonio go before our pick.

Not sure he's quite the Dee Ford but he's right there with him. Maybe minus dee ford's medical history.

But there appears to be no consensus on who the top QBs are in the class. It is "deep" only in that there are a bunch of middle of the road QBs. Hill is the most surprising to me on that list and the biggest longshot.

Even I would hate that. I don't follow college, but Beckham is the type of player we need.

Agreed. Full meltdown in these parts if it were to play out like that.
