Or Young for that matter?

Young will not make it out of the top ten. Nice try though......

I had thought about that as well, I could be completely wrong and most likely would be but I don't think it is out of the question at this point. If both are on the board at 17 it would be an interesting choice for the Vikings and I think that they would take Cutler due to the fact that he is more of pocket pass and questions stemming from VY's wonderlic test results. If that happens and VY is available at 18, I wonder if the Cowboys are then tempted due to the need of a QB for the future there and his status in the state.

Modified. pgreenfan pointed out that I'd forgotten Manny Lawson. He goes to San Diego, which bumps Sims to New England, which bumps Wimbley to Jacksonville, which bumps Kiwanuka out of the 1st.
Normally, I would agree that its nuts to a project a possible franchise QB into the teens, but this year, there are 8-10 true franchise players. With the mixed results of the franchise QBs recently, teams may (wisely) rather lock up guys with less risk (and just as much upside) with those top 10 signing bonuses. In a weaker draft, it would be more farfetched, but this year, anything could happen.

I strongly agree with Bloom on this. The talent at the top 10 spots of this draft is incredible, Mario Williams will likely carry a grade from most scouts much like Peppers did coming out of college, Reggie Bush is being called a once in a decade type player, D'Brickshaw is a franchise tackle, Winston Justice will likely grade out there as well. Leinart = top rated qb of the draft, Hawk an Urlacher type lb grade, TE Davis looking like a FREAK of nature, add Ngata a DT with potential that DC dream of and qbs with question marks start to slip a little.
