FWIW.... Morgan Moses has been invited to attend the draft, does this mean he could go in the first round ?

That characterization of Lawrence is quite poor. He may be somewhat of a tweener, but he makes up for that in other areas. He's very versatile, and played a number of different roles for Boise State. He also has a ton of strength to go with a number of different pass rushing moves. In addition, he hustles the whole game and generally has a big impact. To write him off as "too small for a DE, and too slow for an OLB" is ridiculous.

Verrett would be a great one. If he's on the board and Allen passes, there will be blood. Dude is an elite talent, probably the most talented DB in the draft. And why wouldn't he play much next year? He's miles above Porter.

Here we go again with the characterizations that in no way tell the whole story. Kouandijo's top end speed may not be there, but that's not the most important type of speed for an O-lineman. He's quick off the snap, and uses his athleticism beautifully in both run and pass blocking. His mobility is superb.

And Kouandijo's health issues are non-existent.

Dr. James Andrews says no issues with Cyrus Kouandjio's knee - CBSSports.com
