New York Jets - Vernon Gholston, DE Ohio State
Jets made the smart move here taking Gholston, who fits their defensive scheme. It will be interesting if they stand him up and rush him or have him down on the line all the time.
New Orleans Saints - Sedrick Ellis, DT USC (after trade with New England)
The Saints desperately needed to upgrade their defense, especially their d-line. They wanted Dorsey, but moved up and took Ellis instead.
Jacksonville Jaguars - DE Derrick Harvey, Florida
The Jaguars REALLY wanted Derrick Harvey. They get a guy who can come in and immediately rush the passer, something the Jags defense was not good at in 2007 (or really, ever).
Cincinnati Bengals - Keith Rivers, LB Florida
Bengals get a LBer that fits their scheme. They need more d-line help, but the bottom line is they also need LBers who can tackle (and not get arrested).
New England Patriots - Jarod Mayo, LB Miami
They reached for this guy, but the Patriots needed LBer help and got it.
