Alrighty folks!
In an effort to turn my attention away from the raging dumpster fire that is the Ravens in the Superbowl and the Lombardi hire, I am going to summarize draft options(regardless of how early it is). To clarify my methods I am looking at the top guys at each position (with links to stats where applicable) and will have a poll at the bottom to see what position you guys think we should go get.For reference sake I am going to include most positions despite need. I will exclude OT, C & DT as I believe we are set there. Hat-tip to our SBN affiliate Mocking the Draft whose Big Board I used to select some players.
Offense:
Geno Smith, WVU; Matt Barkley, USC; Tyler Wilson, Arkansas; Mike Glennon, NC State; Tyler Bray, Tenn.

I am by no means advocating picking any of these players at our current draft pick just wanted to throw out some information and set up an easy forum for discussion. My favorites in the first are Dee Milliner or Barkevious Mingo.
What position do you think we should draft? Who are your favorites in the first and beyond?
*1/25/13 Update- Updated to include G as well as roar888 pointed out I missed them in the rush to get to the D*
