AJC: If the draft were held now ...

ATLANTA (1-6)

Needs: Quarterback, defensive line, offensive line, safety

Possible pick: Brian Brohm, QB, Louisville

The real deal: Petrino would re-unite with his former quarterback. But some have BC's Ryan rated ahead of Brohm.

"The quarterback from Boston College is head and shoulders above all of them," said Mayock, a Boston College alum and former safety with the New York Giants. "I watched four game tapes from those three quarterbacks' junior year. Ryan, Woodson and Brohm. The way I had them rated coming into the season was Ryan one, Brohm two and Woodson three.

"I've kind of flip-flopped Woodson and Brohm after watching more tape this year. A lot of NFL people believe that Matt Ryan could end up being the top pick of the entire draft, but he will certainly be the first quarterback taken."

Woodson also has his supporters.

"I'm not sure if you went around the league and talked to all of the teams, that about 20 of them would have Woodson at the top of their lists," Salisbury said. "Woodson is the rawest of the group and has the most potential."
