2nd pick?

I honnestly see him goin late 2nd early 3rd round. There are so many quality quarterbacks still floatin from last years draft, I just dont know if any teams will risk it earlier than that.

Yea, in all honesty, he probably won't be picked til' the second day.

This report describes him best and in my opinion gives him mid to late 2nd round AT BEST;

2007 NFL Draft Prospect - Scouting Report
Leak threw a great deep ball in college and his arm strength relative to other college quarterbacks was much better than average. That's no longer the case. On the brink of the NFL, Leak's arm strength is now one of the concerns that scouts have about the former Florida Gator signal-caller. He didn't do much at the combine to quiet those concerns, either. Of course, the even bigger issue is Leak's size. He is only 6-0 and 203 pounds, much smaller than ideal for the next level. Throwing over and around the enormous defensive linemen that the NFL boasts, will no doubt give him plenty of trouble. It's hard to imagine a guy of Leak's physical makeup becoming a star in the NFL, but it has been done before and can be done again. Leak does have his fair share of strengths. He makes good decisions, is a strong leader both on and off the field, and he is a great athlete. Leak isn't terribly fast simply at sprints, but he is elusive and can escape rushing defenders. Overall, however, I doubt that's enough to merit a first-day pick.

Yea, all of it is true. But he's persistent at learning the game--and that's what it takes to get to the next level.

You have any guesses on the top 10 picks?

1-Russell/Johnson 6- Okoye
2-Johnson/Russell 7-Quinn (if he doesnt go @ 3)
3-Quin/Peterson (not sure) 8- P.Willis
4-Thomas 9-Brown/Admams/Thomas (if not gone@4)
5-J.Anderson 10-Brown/Adams

The (my) Raiders have the toughest pick in the draft, do you take the best player in the draft (Johnson) or something we REALLY need a QB..... I wish we'd take Johnson because there a few quality QB's on the free agent market we get..Johnson is 1 of those players you wont see another for a while (FREAKS) crazy speed, HUGE, Hands of Glue and duct tape, so I dunno about 1/2... oh well theres my choices.
