There is probably no member of the media who is more synonymous with the NFL Draft, who almost invented what the modern NFL Draft is than Gil Brandt. He ran the Dallas Cowboys for their first 29 years of existence and likely has as much to do with their 2 Superbowls over that time as Tom Landry.

So when he's got a new mock draft, I'm always interested in what he has to say and the theme of his latest NFL.com mock seems to be offensive line. He's got 4 offensive lineman going in the top 10 and 6 in the top 13.
A position he's clearly not high on is QBs, with only one (Geno Smith) going in the first round.
For the Eagles, it's a very familiar name... CMU OT Eric Fisher.
"Fisher has shown that he's light on his feet and moves very well," wrote Brandt. "I think he'll get much better as he gains experience; he's an excellent, excellent prospect."
