The order for the first round of April’s draft was officially set following the conclusion of last week’s Super Bowl.

I have color coded the entire draft list to make it easier to visually understand why certain teams are picking ahead of other teams:

PFC’s 2008 Draft Page

• The Cowboys are particularly strong in the first round, having the 22nd and 28th picks courtosy of their trade with the Cleveland Browns last season.
• Last year, a 6-10 record was good enough for the 9th overall pick. This year, there weren’t any 6-10 teams, but if their were, they still would’ve picked 9th.
• The Bills finished 7-9 last year and this year. Last year, they took Marshawn Lynch at No. 12. This year, they get the 11th pick.
• The Patriots forfeited their natural pick due to Spygate. However, they still have the No. 7 pick, which was acquired through the 49ers last year.

I’ll have some special features reviewing the season online soon. Then, to kick off our three-month countdown to April’s draft, I will review the best and worst picks of the 2007 draft in terms of impact this past season.

Packers Need a Lift After Brett Favre?s Retirement
One thing is for sure after today: the Green Bay Packers are going to need a new identity. After being with the Packers for 16 years, future Hall of Fame quarterback Brett Favre retired Monday.

One thing is for sure after today: the Green Bay Packers are going to need a new identity.

After being with the Packers for 16 years, future Hall of Fame quarterback Brett Favre retired Monday. The move was confirmed by Favre’s agent, Bus Cook, Tuesday morning.

Every year, Favre has been the highlight of many discussions in the NFL — from his consecutive starts streak, his playoff-leading seasons, to his unrealistic performances under adversity. Favre’s four-touchdown performance against the Oakland Raiders nearly right after his father passed away will go down as one of the greatest moments in league history.

Now, the Packers’ organization will be forced to move on with a new face: Aaron Rodgers. Although it’s a shame for many Packers fans to see Favre retire, if there were ever a time for him to do it, this was it. The Packers are coming off of a tremendous season in which their defense reached new heights. They also established Greg Jennings as a top-caliber receiver, and saw Ryan Grant emerge from the back of the line. Instead of leaving the Packers for dead when they were down and beat, he has left them when they still have an opportunity to succeed next season under Rodgers.

One note that will surely be asked of Favre is whether or not he would have indeed returned for another season or two if the Packers had signed wide receiver Randy Moss to a deal. ESPN.com reported last week that Favre and Moss had spoken, and that Favre told Moss that he’d return if Moss signed with the Packers. Reports indicate that Green Bay showed no interest in Moss, and Favre’s retirement came shortly after it was announced that Moss re-signed with the Patriots.

There will be a lot of different opinions about Favre. Packers fans will adore everything he has done (beyond Packer fans though, you have to wonder if John Madden feels the worst of all). Some fans around the league will feel the same. Other fans around the league will be thrilled that he retired — whether it be because they are rivals of the Packers, or that they were sick of Favre delaying his decisions (regarding retirement).

Agent: Ravens, LB Suggs reach compromise (AP)
The Baltimore Ravens have reached a compromise with franchise player Terrell Suggs, his agent said. Suggs filed a grievance against the team in March after the Ravens tagged him with the one-year, $8.065 million linebacker tag. He was seeking to be paid the defensive end franchise designation of $8,879,000.

Ravens, Suggs avoid grievance

The Ravens and Terrell Suggs avoided a grievance by essentially creating a new position, Suggs’ agent confirmed Tuesday night.

The sides reached an agreement on a one-year franchise tag tender worth close to $8.5 million, which will pay him as a hybrid defensive end-linebacker.

It is believed that the NFL Players Association and the NFL Management Council are finalizing details to sign off on the compromise.

‘His job is to rush the quarterback as a defensive end, and I thought it was unfair that he had to live under the linebacker franchise tag,’ said Gary Wichard, Suggs’ agent. ‘So, Ozzie [Newsome, Ravens general manager] and I said, ‘Let us resolve this as opposed to the attorneys.’ I tip my hat off to Ozzie for creating a new franchise tag.’ Read more

When the Minnesota Vikings put receiver Troy Williamson on the market earlier this week, the Jacksonville Jaguars were the team that showed the greatest interest. Reports are now indicating that a trade between the Vikings and Jaguars is all but complete for the former first-round pick. The only thing holding the trade back is the fact that teams must wait until Friday at midnight EST to finalize it.

Williamson caught 18 passes for 240 yards and one touchdown last season. Considering the numbers that receiver Braylon Edwards put up this season in Cleveland, since he was taken a few picks ahead of Williamson, the Vikings feel that it’s time to give up on him. However, Williamson’s potential technically may have been limited in Minnesota due to group of ineffective quarterbacks. After all — since Randy Moss left the team, who has been effective?

Jacksonville will get: Troy Williamson
Minnesota will get: 6th-Round Draft Pick

The trade would also re-unite Williamson with former Vikings head coach Mike Tice, who is now an assistant coach for the Jaguars.

Death Penalty Pulled In Sean Taylor Murder Case

“There are no issues of discretion here. There’s no choice.”

Prosecutors said Monday they will not seek the death penalty against four people charged with murdering Washington Redskins star Sean Taylor because the accused shooter was a minor when the crime was committed.

The U.S. Supreme Court has ruled that people cannot be executed for crimes committed when they’re under 18, and it’s a well established legal principle that others involved in the same case as a minor cannot face the ultimate penalty if they are less directly responsible.

Assistant State Attorney Reid Rubin filed notice Friday that the death penalty will be waived. That means the four suspects could get a maximum of life in prison if convicted of first-degree murder after a trial scheduled to begin Aug. 25. Read more

With so much talk about free agency, sometimes people forget about the players that teams are looking to trade. And, if the teams can’t trade that particular player, they will likely release them before they are due a signing bonus. So, either way, these players are worthy of paying attention to, especially in the next couokd of days:

nfl/wp-content/uploads/image/jvilma.jpg” style=”padding: 4px; float: right;” alt=”" />1. DeAngelo Hall, CB, Atlanta Falcons: Hall has already proven during his stay with the Falcons that he has the potential to be a shutdown corner. The organization and Hall aren’t on good terms right now, and it seems as if it will take at least a first-round draft choice from a team to get Hall. The New York Giants reportedly have a strong interest in him, but other teams, including the Washington Redskins, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Miami Dolphins, and Dallas Cowboys are in the running as well.

2. Shaun Rogers, DT, Detroit Lions: The Lions know that Rogers is a very physical force if he plays with the highest enthusiasm, so they aren’t going to part with him just for the sake of parting with him. However, management are listening to calls and several teams have reportedly shown an interest already.

3. Jonathan Vilma, LB, New York Jets: While still talented, Vilma has not been the best fit in Eric Mangini’s 3-4 system. Knowing that they won’t receive any compensation next year for Vilma when he becomes a free agent, trading him now would benefit them, even if they give him up for a bargain.

nfl/wp-content/uploads/image/twilliamson.jpg” style=”padding: 4px; float: left;” alt=”" />4. Javon Walker, WR, Denver Broncos: Walker could be on the move again, but his injury concerns no doubt remain the biggest risk associated with him. Walker has clearly shown the potential to be a No. 1 receiver, but a team can’t afford to spend money on him if they aren’t already deep at the receiver position. Rumor has it that the Tampa Bay Buccaneers are interested in him, but they could always wait until around the beginning of March. If the Broncos haven’t traded him by then, they’ll cut him to prevent him from earning a $5 million roster bonus.

5. Troy Williamson, WR, Minnesota Vikings: The former first-round selection hasn’t done anything worthy of production with the Vikings, and he has been given permission to seek a trade. Williamson would like to play for the Cleveland Browns due to his ties with receiver Braylon Edwards, but it’s hard to imagine Cleveland trading a draft pick for him. The Jacksonville Jaguars are reportedly interested in him, as they are still searching for answers at the receiver position.

6. Jevon Kearse, DE, Philadelphia Eagles: Although the Eagles would like to find someone to take him, he’s probably going to end up getting cut instead.

With some players, trades are not an option. The Bengals are refusing to trade Chad Johnson at this point, due to the impact they know he can still have. On the other side of the spectrum, it may not be worth it for a team to give up a draft pick if a team will give up and cut a player. Two weeks ago it seemed like the Panthers were interested in trading DeShaun Foster, but they cut him a few days later.
