[Ndamukong] Suh and fellow defensive tackle Gerald McCoy were the headliners in mid-February when [Scouts Inc.'s Steve] Muench and NFL Draft Scout's Rob Rang gathered here to discuss the Rams' options with the first overall choice. As I wrote then, there wasn't much doubt about it: "Neither Rang nor Muench -- nor anyone else I've consulted -- has strongly projected anything other than Suh or McCoy for the Rams at No. 1. Both give Suh the slightest edge." But when Rang released his latest mock draft Monday, Bradford was the top choice and increasingly the favorite. Muench, who previously said he would have "a very difficult time" taking Bradford first overall based on questions about his shoulder and Oklahoma's offensive scheme, now says he is "absolutely more comfortable" with Bradford at this stage. The challenge now becomes separating perception from reality. How much has really changed?

I'm not going to jump on Sando for being late to the party, because he nailed it in a blog post from Wednesday. Must read.
