Dear Arizona,

Below is the first coaches poll for the up-coming 2010 season came out.

The Alabama Crimson Tide were the overwhelming #1 choice as they take the initial top spot for the 2010 season.

Complete List with Top Prospects for the 2011 Draft:

1. Alabama - Includes RB Mark Ingram, WR Julio Jones, OT James Carpenter, 3-4 DE Marcel Dareus & ILB Don'Ta Hightower

What exactly is the art of drafting? Well, the way I see it is when drafting early you tend to have a bunch of massive contracts, thus resulting in terrible cap management.

Let’s take example a team like the Patriots who are always winning and drafting later in the draft, whether it’s by having no 1st-round picks or having late 1st round pick.

Below is a preliminary list of 2011 free agents for the 2011 offseason.

NOTE: The list will be updated frequently.

QB:

Tom Brady- Patriots
Peyton Manning- Colts
Trent Edwards- Bills
Matt Hasselbeck- Seahawks
Michael Vick- Eagles
Donovan McNabb- Redskins
Alex Smith- 49ers

RB:

Joe Addai- Colts
Cedric Benson- Bengals
Kevin Faulk- Patriots
Michael Bush- Raiders

Now the NFC:

1. Minnesota Vikings:

Strength: There strength is at the WR position. They have 3 solid guys in Percy Harvin, Sidney Rice and Bernard Berrian. And all make for great weapons for Brett Favre or whoever is QB.

So, it is about a few weeks away till opening week.

And it got me thinking who are the top 12 teams in the NFL, I will break it down by Conference.

In the 1st installment, we have the AFC:

1. Indianapolis Colts:

Strength: The obvious strength of the Colts is at QB with Peyton Manning, he is without a doubt a top 3 QB in the NFL.

Today we are gonna look at my Watch List for the 2010 College Season Prospects.

Obviously in recent weeks, we have talken about Prospects one by one, but lets take a look at teams with the best and most prospects for the 2011 draft.
