Manny Lawson ...DE North Carolina State17. Donte Whitner S Ohio State18. Bobby Carpenter OLB Ohio State19. Johnathan Joseph CB South CarolinaThe NFL loves Joseph's physical package. He's 5-11, 193 pounds and runs a 4.32 40. But he's flawed. So are the other top cornerbacks in the first round. Antonio Cromartie started only one game in his college career and didn't play in 2005 because of a knee injury. Jimmy Williams is almost too big at 6-2, 213, and his personality rubs NFL types the wrong way. His confidence borders on arrogance. Tye Hill is a shade on the small side at 5-9, and Joseph played only one season of college ball. Yet all four players are listed as the top cornerback on various NFL draft boards.20. Tye Hill CB Clemson 21-30 No. Player Pos. School31. Eric Winston OT MiamiThe Miami Hurricanes are no longer No. 1 in the NCAA. They haven't won a national title since 2001. But Miami is still No. 1 in the eyes of the NFL with 21 first-round draft picks in the 2000 decade, 13 more than any other school. The Hurricanes also have a string of 11 years with a first-round draft pick -- six years longer than anyone else. You'd have to go back to 1994 to find a draft that didn't include a Hurricane in the first round. Miami has two chances to extend that streak to 12 drafts Saturday: offensive tackle Eric Winston and wide receiver Sinorice Moss. Both hover in the 30-35 range.32. Joseph Addai HB LSU33.

Anthony Fasano TE Notre DameThere could be as many as four tight ends selected in the second round: Marcedes Lewis, Leonard Pope, Anthony Fasano and Joe Klopfenstein. Lewis won the Mackey Award last season as the best tight end in the college game. Klopfenstein is big (6-5, 255) and Pope bigger (6-7, 258). But maybe the most intriguing prospect is Fasano, who left his senior season on the table at Notre Dame to turn pro. He reminds NFL talent evaluators of another Notre Dame tight end -- Mark Bavaro. "I pride myself on being an all-around tight end, a tight end who doesn't come off the field in any situation," Fasano said.55. Darryl Tapp DE Virginia Tech56. Demetrius Williams WR Oregon57.

Although vastly influential in German-speaking Europe, conceptual history (Begriffsgeschichte) has until now received little attention in English. This genre of intellectual history differs from both ...the French history of mentalités and the Anglophone history of discourses by positing the concept - the key occupier of significant syntactical space - as the object of historical investigation.
