Draftember - the month of hope

With so much draftery going on, I thought it might be useful to throw out a general timeline so we're all on the same page before splitting into a quadpartite civil war between the Suh Brigade, the Bradford Tribe, the Clausians and the generally hated Tebowites.
The combine starts on Wednesday, the 24th, and runs through March 2nd, a Tuesday. I'll throw up a primer (with some stuff from last year) to fill in the cracks, and a post on some names to look out for, as well as some prospects whose combines could make them 1st round studs or fourth round duds.
After the combine, as we get into pro day season, I'll come back with a two-round, post-combine mock which is sure to infuriate everybody this side of the Khan (dare I say, it will create...Khan-troversy?).
Day 1 of the draft is April 22, so we'll have about a month and a half after the combine to get as worked up as possible about the ultimate demise/forthcoming Super Bowl run of the 2010 Rams. Remember, March is BYOH - bring your own hyperbole.
Just so we're all at the same point before everything explodes in a typhoon of "NOOOO!", wihch it most certainly will. This should be fun.

Do not mess with the Tebowites !
lol
He’s always open. He catches a lot of balls. He’s un-guardable, no matter how old he is
Do you think age and college awards make the player
when it comes to who is the best candidate for the position? No, probably not but just for grins here are the top two Defensive Tackles in the draft and their Kudos:
Ndamukong Suh, age 23 was born on 6 Jan 1987 and will be 23 at the beginning of training camp. His college awards are:
Heisman Trophy Finalist (2009)
Outland Trophy (2009)
Chuck Bednarik Award (2009)
Bronko Nagurski Trophy (2009)
Lombardi Award (2009)
Bill Willis Award (2009)
Consensus First-team All-America (2009)
Big-12 Defensive Player of the Year (2009)
Big-12 Defensive Lineman of the Year (2009)
2× First-Team All-Big 12 (2008, 2009)
MVP Big 12 Championship Game (2009)
First-Team Freshman All-Big 12 (2006)
Gerald McCoy, age 21 was born on 25 Feb 1988 and he will be 22 at the same time. His college awards are:
2× First-team All-American selection (2008, 2009)
2× First-team All-Big 12 (2008, 2009)
USA Today Defensive Player of the Year (2005)
Oklahoma Gatorade Player of the Year (2005)
I just thought I’d throw this out there after all IF the rams trade down from number 1 and Detroit takes Suh we should still have a shot at Gerald McCoy.
Go Rams!

I'm about to foam at the mouth over the combine
I wish more players were working out, though
(top QB’s especially)
