Top 5?

With the draft less than a month away, I decided to ask some of the National team players who they thought should be the top 5 picks in this year's draft. Most of my teammates don't know college football like I do(or really anything about college football). They actually make fun of my vast knowledge of college football, but then they always come back to me if they have any questions. I thought this could be a fun experiment to see how well my team knows college football.
Disclaimer:
1. I asked them in our meal room with no internet help or outside help.
2. If they don't have a clue, I told them just to give me the football names that they know and we will insert that into their top 5.
3. Most of them only know about Tebow and it's probably because of me!

So here are the results. I have come to find out my team really doesn't have a clue and they desperately need outside help(one was actually lucky and did receive outside help). Maybe I should teach them a little bit, but I do know I am going to watch this year's draft and see how well my teammates did! We will post results after the draft...

We don't get your Top 5?! I love college football but to be completely honest, I haven't paid attention to much this offseason and I have no idea who's going when or where. It'll be fun to see who goes where though!

Don't worry, you will find out my top five wishlist and who will actually go closer to the actual draft date!

Hi Cat! I just wanted to say I'm a big fan. I recently started a new blog - The First Touch: thoughts on life, faith and football (soccer). I'd love to get your feedback sometime. Only have one post, but it's a start. You can find it here

Doug,
I really liked your blog! Thanks for sharing!

I didn't even think about doing a wishlist. That's exactly what it would be though, all of the top players going to da Bears! Although the Cubs tried that and still failed miserably. Must be a Chicago thing ;-/

I'm hoping St. Louis can pick up Suh for the #1 pick and then (hopefully) Colt McCoy will still be around until the 2nd round and if I'm still dreaming? Jordan Shipley - 3rd round, & Toby Gerhart - 4th round.
For a team that used to be called "The Greatest Show On Turf", they've really hit rock bottom in the past few years.

Anyway:
1. Bradford.
2. Suh.
3. G. McCoy.
4. Okung.
5. Don't know.
