AFC East: Even the Patriots have needs to fill

Possible targets: McKelvin, Jenkins, Oklahoma wide receiver Malcolm Kelly or Texas wide receiver Limas Sweed.

Summary: They should get a player who can come in and compete for a starting spot as a rookie with the 11th overall pick in the first round. A bigger receiver like Kelly would be a big help to young quarterback Trent Edwards.

New York Jets

The skinny: They've spent a ton of money in free agency, overpaying in some cases, but they feel they've added key pieces to their team. The addition of offensive guard Alan Faneca and right tackle Damien Woody will help the line, so at least they can focus on other areas in the draft.

Primary need: I think it's a quarterback, but they don't. So we'll go with a premier edge rusher for the 3-4 defense they use, somebody who can make trouble for opposing quarterbacks.

Secondary needs: Quarterback, tight end, running back.

Possible targets: Gholston, McKelvin or Arkansas running back Darren McFadden.

Summary: The Jets have added some pretty good players in the offseason, but they can't miss on that first-round pick. It's too high a pick, too important. McFadden will be an intriguing decision for them if he's still there.

Miami Dolphins

The skinny: This will be the first draft in Miami for the Bill Parcells regime. One thing's for sure: They can't do any worse than this team has done the past five years. The drafting has been terrible. Miami has the first overall pick, but they haven't offered many hints as to what they will do with it. They certainly would love to trade out of the spot if they could.

Primary need: If they decide John Beck isn't the answer, it has to be quarterback. If Beck is, it becomes offensive tackle.

Secondary needs: Tackle, running back, receiver, defensive line.

Possible targets: Michigan offensive tackle Jake Long, Boston College quarterback Matt Ryan, Virginia defensive end Chris Long or LSU defensive tackle Glenn Dorsey.

Summary: This is a team in rebuilding mode. But how much patience does Parcells have? It's not going to be an overnight fix. But that's why this draft is vital to the success of the franchise. It's time to build with homegrown players, not other team's castoffs.
