Just so we all know where you stand, predict where Star and Ziggy will go, plus who you think your NFL team of choice will take and who they should take.
Star: No. 4 to Philly. Based on what little I've heard, most of the teams immediately following Philly don't have an overriding need for a hole-plugging nose tackle. If not Philly, then we could see Carolina dip into the Utah pipeline again at No. 14.
Ziggy: He's such a wild-card in so many respects that it's difficult to peg where he'll land. Is he best suited as an outside pass rusher in a 4-3, or as OLB in a 3-4? Buffalo, NY Jets, San Diego and Tampa Bay could all be potential landing spots. Given Ansah's background, he needs friends in the locker room that share his beliefs to ease the transition. I'll go with San Diego.
Buffalo: The Bills need help at LB more than any other team in the league, but the top LB prospects don't warrant going at No. 8, save for Ansah and you've got to be sold on his being able to reach his ceiling (If you knew he could, he'd go No. 1 overall). They are really intrigued with Ansah, which is saying something because Buffalo rarely looks to Western schools in the draft. Even with Kevin Kolb, I think they'll address QB later in the draft. They did lose Andy Levitre to the Titans, and this is a draft heavy in O-line prospects. That said, Levitre was a guard, so do you use such a high pick on a guard? They could also use a bonafide No. 2 wideout. (For a team that went 6-10, the Bills are very well off at some key positions, most notably D-line, the secondary, tight end and running back). The Bills are in a good position in that they can afford to trade down; trouble is, what player could be available that's worth trading up to No. 8 for? Ansah would be a bold pick, but short of trading down, I see the Bills going with the BA O-lineman, and relying on the coaching staff to mix and match to cover up for Levitre's loss.
