Former Ole Miss star Patrick Willis runs "great" 40 times at Pro Day.

Patrick Willis LB Willis (6-1, 237 pounds) ran the 40-yard dash in 4.37 and 4.38. He also had a 4.37 short shuttle and 7.10 three-cone drill. He stood on his numbers from the Combine for the rest.

DD.comment: We think Willis would be a great fit for the linebacker needy Buffalo Bills at #12 overall, but the question is could he go even higher? Teams like Arizona (#5), Atlanta (#10) and San Francisco (#11) would be utterly foolish not to at least consider drafting Willis.

Oh well, It was pretty safe to assume that he wouldn't be there when the Bengals pick at 18 anyway, but I guess that workout solidifies it.

I have a hard time believing that Willis is worth a top-10 pick, these recent numbers notwithstanding. That said, I think it's a non-brainer that he's a first round pick.

BILLS AT 12...i have been hoping this happens for a while...

I'm hoping the Dolphins trade down with the Bills or Panthers and pick up another pick. Theres talk right now of the Dolphins trying to trade up with Tampa to draft Calvin Johnson. I love CJ but I think they have to give up too much for him. I'd think the Bills or Panthers would trade up and be able to solidify their defenses at #9.

Bills are more than likely going to stay put and go from there...we need depth as much as starters and so trading down doesn't make much sense for us...

Anyone think that Detroit does it again, and drafts Calvin Johnson?

There's been a lot of talk with what they do with the #2 pick, but drafting another first round WR would be pretty interesting.

CJ is by far superior to any of the 3 WRs they've drafted recently, but it would definitely be overkill for them to do it again.

Brady Quinn? Joe Thomas? What do you think they do?

I hope they don't get the chance.

Anybody else think the Falcons could use some of the additional picks they got in the Schaub deal as leverage to move up and draft CJ?

they have said they wouldn't. The draft value is almost equal for the #2 pick for ATL's 1st and 2 2nds. Too much to give up IMO.

OK, I've given a donation, so you've got enough points to use NF's link.

Buy a Billls logo, though, don't spend it on vBooze and vWhores.

Mock draft No. 4

First Round Selection

23. Kansas City Chiefs ? Ohio State wide receiver/return man Ted Ginn, Jr. The Chiefs have some concerns on the offensive line, but they seem hopeful that All-Pro guard Will Shields will return for one more season and that free agent Damion McIntosh will fill a major void at left tackle. With speedy receiver Eddie Kennison getting up in age and tight end Gonzalez now 31 years old, the chance to add a versatile playmaker like Ginn, who might slide this far if he is unable to work out for scouts prior to the draft, would be ideal to help loosen up opposing defenses that like to play eight-in-the-box against Larry Johnson.

Second Round Selection

21. Dallas: Ohio State WR Anthony Gonzalez
