1. Patrick Peterson, LSU (6-0, 219)
Pro comparison: Charles Woodson
If Peterson is as dedicated as Woodson, he has the footwork to be just as versatile and the strength to be equally difficult to fend off outside. He can also be an ace in the return game, something the future Hall of Famer Woodson wasn't allowed to show fully because of injuries and further injury risk.

Yeah, that made me chuckle too! Reed has speed and power rush moves too, not just the TBC Spin Cycle!

15. Mark Ingram, Alabama (5-09, 215)
Pro comparison: Frank Gore (49ers)
Ingram is compared to Emmitt Smith, but comparing any player to a Hall of Famer before stepping on the field is treacherous ground to walk. Gore's tough inside running style and vision are as close a template to Ingram's game as any modern mortal.
hahah gore isn't slow, he blew both knees and still runs a faster 40 time, lol they hit the emmitt comment but sure gore has vision and hard running, but he also comes with a second gear!

Not a position of need, but in order to prevent the Rams from getting him and who he is compared to I'd throw Julio Jones into the fray.

Used to be high on this guy until.....
49. Brooks Reed, Arizona (6-3, 263)
Pro comparison: Tully Banta-Cain (Patriots)
Quick, instinctive and armed with an impressive array of pass-rush moves, Reed could ultimately prove to be one of this draft's better pass rushers. He also demonstrated surprising athleticism during workouts at the combine, leading some to believe he'll wind up as a 3-4 rush linebacker. Others wonder if he's maxed out -- meaning he's reached his full potential as a player -- and not quite the sum of his parts.
Does he have the patented spin move?
