Pick/Team         War Room scouts' analysis 
 
 1. Texans        Instantly would make the offense more dynamic; can be 
                    used in multiple roles. 
 2. Saints        A big pocket passer who would willingly accept his 
                    role as the franchise guy. 
 3. Titans        Having him as a blind side protector would be a 
                    relief to Steve McNair. 
 4. Jets          Would help anchor a linebacker unit that includes Pro 
                    Bowl player Jonathan Vilma. 
 5. Packers       Is talented and experienced enough to start from Day 
                    1 in the Pack's weak secondary. 
 6. Raiders *     With his power and speed, would be a solid two-way 
                    end and potentially a dominant pass rusher. 
 7. 49ers *       Playmaking ability and versatility would benefit a 
                    defense that struggled in 2005. 
 8. Bills         Is the dominant run stuffer the team needs to address 
                    its weaknesses up the middle. 
 9. Lions         Secondary needs a leader to unite a talented but 
                    disjointed unit. 
10. Cardinals     They would be thrilled to team such a talented 
                    prospect ...
