I think Chicago and TB will get Edwards and Williams. Chicago needs playmakers. Has for years. TB, loves Williams from what I've heard. They wanted him last year. And that would give them a Clayton/Williams combo for years to come, with Galloway stretching the field. If Williams is available, absolutly, but not a freakin chance.

I don't think TB would get Williams because they drafted Clayton last year. Clayton has done well and Galloway came on strong after coming back from the groin injury. I do worry about the Bears and the Raiders though.

Remember, TB is Gruden. With the raiders he had T Brown, J Rice, and J Porter. And with gannon nearly set the all time passing yards record. He would love another great WR.

It's so hard to tell this early.
1. SF - who knows? They need a Coach and GM - but Leinart is a great start to any rebuilding.
2. Miami - same as #1, they need a QB badly - Alex Smith or they tempt fate with Benson at RB
3. Cleveland - see #1 and #2. They need defense. Erasmus James, Antrell Rolle, Travis Johnson???
4. Chicago - Tough to pass up Cadillac Williams - could look too much like Marshall Faulk to Lovie Smith. Braylon Edwards is from nearby Michigan...
5. Tampa Bay - O-line/ CB/LB/RB...WR? Jamal Brown at RT could help youngster Simms (lefty).
6. Tennessee - found talent at WR and RB, but no depth at several positions - Ronnie Brown still on the board.
7. Oakland - Norv and Al Davis in the same draft room? I don't see how they get past Mike Williams. But they've not been known for football smarts. But Woodson wants out and Carlos Rogers has a Raider-mentality at CB or Matt Roth.
8. Arizona - Aaron Rogers makes sense, but he's no Dante Culpepper. Lots of other talent - Marlin Jackson, Ernest Shazor, Derrick Johnson? Or they go to the next RB? Gore?
9. Us ... Williams could very well be there - but not extremely likely. Trade down - take Matt Roth? Man this is going to be a tough forecast with all the unknowns above.
