Animal's son said he is staying in school. I don't see Woodson going that high. Brohm and Ryan are the top 2 rated QB's.. I think Woodson would be lucky to go in the first half of round 1.
Watched more college football then ever this year so really looking forward to this draft.

3. OAK - Darren McFadden, RB, Arkansas As member of the RAIDER NATION i would love to see this happen...then again getting a dominant O-Line would be better in the long run...so i wouldn't mind seeing Jake Long as the RAIDERS first pick. BTW...3 USC players projected in this top 16...there will be a few more guys from Southern California that are going later in the first round as well...THAT IS AWESOME too.

Only 1 DB in the top 16.... interesting... the crop must be thin this year

I think it'd be wrong for the Raiders to take a RB off the bat...they have Fargas who's proved to be huge. Plus guys like Rhodes.

Plus guys like Rhodes. i know what you are saying, but niether Fargas or Rhodes is a "franchise" back like McFadden can be. i don't know if i would say "wrong" but maybe not the smartest...an O-linemen would last them longer, but McFadden is likely the best all around football talent in the draft, just like Peterson was last year. I don't know if the Raiders will be able to let him fall past him if they pick at #3 and most definitely won't pass him up at #4 if that is where they end up after the coin toss...
