You know these players. Guys that you necessarily won't touch, but you realize they are going to go MUCH higher than you would be willing to draft them. So who make the list this year?
Will add more, but here are a couple off the top of my head:
QB: Matthew Stafford - This is in NO WAY a dig on the talent, but I still don't love early QB's and having to spend a late 2nd for a guy who I still have serious durability concerns about and I will pass. 2 rounds later in the 4th rd area....then I'd look, but no way I'm making my 2nd pick Stafford.
RB: DeMarco Murray - Seen this play out way too many times in the past. Young RB explodes onto the scene in limited action one year, hype train starts and all of a sudden he is a late 1st round/early 2nd guy......Shonn Greene ring a bell? Being a Cowboy will all but guarantee he will be over-drafted. I'll stay away at the first turn where he will go.
WR: Mike Wallace - This pick was tough as I do like Wallace and for the most part, a lot of the WR's are being drafted at their correct values. I add Wallace to this list b/c I am afraid of his contract situation. Is he mature enough to put it behind him and preform? If he can, his 4th rd cost could be a value......BUT, I'm just not sure he is. I see this being a cloud that hangs over him all year making him this years D Jackson. He slides a little and I may look, but in the 4th I am passing.
TE: Vernon Davis - Other TE's I like more in that end of 5th early 6th area than Davis.
Defense: Any defense before the 12th rd!
