With the Senior Bowl, NFL Combine, and the first round of Pro Days completed, I thought it was a good time to updated my rankings for the 2009 NFL Draft.
The Detroit Lions (0-16) still own the first overall pick and no one is sure where they are going with the pick (Keep It or Trade It??) If the Lions do keep the selection look for Georgia QB Matthew Stafford, Baylor OT Jason Smith, or Virginia OT Eugene Monroe to be standing next to Roger Goodell at Radio City Music Hall as the first overall pick.
