The NFL Combine starts SAturday and for a lot of players this will be their first JOB interview. Players go through a bevy of tests with their future employers both physical and mental.

Most of the so-called sure-fire top picks will go through the interview process but will not go through too many if any at all the Physical testing like running, throwing, lifting, and jumping etc.

But here are the BLUEDUDE'S Top 10 Players in this year's NFL Draft and the NFL Draft Order from 1-10:

1. CAROLINA-Cameron NEWTON- Auburn: They have stop-gap QB'S on their roster now and I am not completly sold on QB Jimmy CLAUSEN moving forward. Cam might be a reach here but the PANTHERS were a Top 10 Defense last year and they still have RB'S Williams and STEWART.

2. DENVER-Nick FAIRLEY-AUBURN: A beast of a DT reminds the BlUEDUDE of the LATE EAGLES DT Jerome BROWN of the U. Motor alway running and will need a double team every rip or MEEET you at the QB. Broncos need to start building from inside out and FAIRLEY would be a good start.

3.BUFFALO-Da'Quan BOWERS-CLEMSON: Cam could go here and he and BOWERS could swap spots. The BEST HS Player coming out just three years ago in the Country. A one-man SACK MACHINE and pure RUSH END in the mold of STEELERS JAmes HARRISON.

4. BENGALS- AJ GREEN- GEORGIA: With so much speculation of where CARSON PALMER might land they also have issues at WR and this is the BEST WR and a TOP 10 football player in the draft. Reminds the BLUEDUDE of a Taller DeSean JACKSON and an absolute threat all over the field. Will work good with BENGALS Youngsters GRESHAM and SHIPLEY.

5. ARIZONA- PAtrick PETERSON-LSU: They have RODGERS-CROMARTIE on one side and putting PETERSOMN on the other side makes the CARDS funneling everything to the MIDDLE with all-world safety Adrian WILSON. They could also use OLB Von MILLER of the Texas A&M.

6. BROWNS- Prince AMUKAMARA-NEBRASKA: Imagine Joe HADEN patrolling one side of the FIELD and PRINCE on the other. Now you can leave them one on one and get more bodies to the QB. Peterson might be the best Corner in the DRAFT but PRINCE is right there......I rate them 1A and 1B.

7. 49ERS-Blaine GABBERT-MIZZOU: If NEWTON is gone and should be this is the safe pick for Jim HARBAUGH and Company. SMITH and SMITH are not the answers and this is a QB Driven League period. GABBERT has some nice qualities in him...a la Sam BRADFORD.

8. TITANS-Marcell DARIUS-'BAMA: If they need a QB if both Newton adn Gabbert are gone they will go Defensive and get the 2 nd best DT in the DRAFT in DARIUS from BAMA. Reminds me of former Florida STATE All-American Corey SIMON. Will demand a double team and is stronger than an OX. A key to the TIDE'S Run Defense the last couple of years.

9. COWBOYS- Jimmy SMITH- TEXAS: They need a Corner and SMITH from UT AUSTIN is and probably will be the ticket. Will challenge Peterson and AMUKAMARA at the COMBINE and will turn some heads.

10. REDSKINS- Robert QUINN-UNC: An OlB/DE type can play 3-4 or 4-3 and this what the scouts like about him his versatility. He would be a WELCOME Edition to the 'SKINS having ORAKPO already doing damage on one side already.

OTHERS who might Crack the TOP 10:

Von MILLER OLB Texas A&M
Cameron JORDAN DE CAL
Julio JONES WR 'BAMA
Aldon SMITH DE/OLB MIZZOU
Tyron SMITH OT USC
Nate SOLDER OT COLORADO
Corey LIUGET DT ILLINOIS
Akeem AYERS OLB/DE UCLA
JJ WATT DE WISCONSIN
