a few early 2008 draft rankings

Some early rankings (very early) at a few offensive positions. Keep in mind that they're a little rough and are in no way my final preseason rankings.

QB:
1. John David Booty, USC (I know some might dissagree, but Booty's got such a cannon and you can't ignore what this school had produced at QB lately)
2. Eric Ainge, Tennessee (2nd on my QB board with a bullet. Ainge is possibly my favorite senior for next year. Absolutely love everything about him, especially his coachability. He's consistently gotten better every tear at Tennessee).
3. Colt Brennan, Hawaii
4. Brian Brohm, Louisville (Maybe I'll get hammered for having Brohm under Ainge and Brennan, but IMO, Brohm is overrated. I think he's going to struggle without Petrino and he looked completely shaken up in the Rutgers game, and enough to definitely cause concern).
5. Chad Henne, Michigan
6. Matt Ryan, BC
7. Andre Woodson, Kentucky (sleeper, big time, kid lit it up during the last few weeks, demolished Clemson and almost beat Tennessee. Held his own against Florida as well.)

RB:
(Seniors only, don't forget though that Rice, Slaton, McFadden, Hill, and Jones will all be eligible to declare):
1. Allan Patrick, Oklahoma
2. Mike Hart, Michigan
3. Yvenson Bernard, Oregon State (love this kid)
4. Brandon Ore, VaTech

WR:
1. Marcus Monk, Arkansas
2. Limas Sweed, Texas
3. DeShaun Jackson, Cal
4. Todd Blythe, Iowa St
5. Ernie Wheelright, Minnesota
6. Adarius Bowman, Ok St

T:
1. Sam Baker, USC
2. Jake Long, Michigan
3. Kirk Barton, Ohio St
4. Pedro Sosa, Rutgers
5. King Dunlap, Auburn

G:
1. Will Arnold, LSU
2. Mike Fladell, Rutgers
3. Kirk Elder, Texas A&M
4. Robert Gustavis, Arizona St

TE:
1. Travis Beckum, Wisconsin
2. Martin Rucker, Mizzou
3. John Carlson, Notre Dame
4. Joey Haynos, Maryland
