This is pretty cool, if anyone wants to try and figure it out.

2010...?

Pretty good track record, with only Carpenter seeming to be a bust.

Seven of the last nine 1st Rders have been Defense, while six of the first ten were Offense.

A total of 25 Pro Bowl bids.

5 have been LBs
4 have been DBs
3 have been OLs
2 WRs
2 RBs
1 QB

There were 10 picks @ #12 or higher, and of those 6 were Defense (and Glenn's spot would have been Defense as well). Four have been LBs.

I know the ParSparLand will do their best to befuddle and bewilder the competition as to their draft-day plans, but it seems unlikely that Miami would use that pick at WR with Bryant. Parcells was not happy with the pick of Terry Glenn that high, and Jones repeated Kraft's mistake in making Tuna take a WR he didn't want (with the TO saga).

I think it's obvious to most people that it is between NT and S for the first pick (except for those that think Dez Bryant should be brought in). If I had to guess, I'd say NT was the majority mindset (I am in the minority, but only because of Earl Thomas).
