    LSU consensus All-American cornerback Patrick Peterson is ambitious, wanting to convince the Carolina Panthers to choose him with the first overall pick of the draft. Peterson told National Football Post that he'll meet with the Panthers tonight. He also has meetings with the Houston Texans, Miami Dolphins, Denver Broncos, Washington Redskins, New Orleans Saints and the San Francisco 49ers. The Jim Thorpe and Chuck Bednarik Award winner conducted a workout for NFL teams today at the Senior Bowl. The star junior is projected to go within the top five selections of the draft in April after declaring early for the draft. "I believe I can bring a lot to the table," Peterson said during an interview at the Renaissance Riverview Hotel in downtown Mobile. "I can bring shutting down the offense's No. 1 receiver. I can take away one side of the football field. I have a tremendous amount of focus and confidence in myself to be the best on the field. "My goal is to be No. 1, that's the ultimate goal. I have to work extremely hard each and every day. It's an open game right now We'll have to see what the NFL draft has to bring."

    yeah with a new deal in place you can take a WR #1 without the serious salary implications that came with taking a position so risky without a rookie cap.

    green is the consensus #1 and they need a big time reciever if clausen is gonna have any shot at all, green is very pro ready.

    fairley is tough....as much as hed like to be, hes not suh and DT is a risky position to take really high and hes got some of those dreaded KARAKTER KONSEERRNZZZ but one year wonders at DT are tough because college DTs dont always translate to nfl trenches

    im not high on bowers at all, hes slow off the snap and not a high motor guy....hello jamaal anderson. i like quinn at DE more personally
