I'm also a big fan of Kansas St. Jordan Willis. I've seen him play a few times, he would be a nice option in round 2 or 3.
I really don't care that Ryan Anderson didn't test all that well either. I think we've all seen what that dude can do.
I watched a lot of tape on Hassan Reddick, and really don't know what to think. It really sucks, when you watch defensive play against all of these spread teams that are the norm in CFB today. That's why I love watching tape of defensive players against Michigan. Reddick is used all over the field against those teams and I really couldn't get a handle on what he is, OLB, DE, ILB or none of the above.
Come on Ballard, draft 3 LB's in the first 3 rounds. Just do it damn-it!

Derek Barnett in the 1st and Ryan Anderson in the 2nd and I'd be beyond delirious. I really wouldn't care who we drafted in the 3rd round, but bolstering our LB corps to that degree, might as well go with another LB at that point.
Turning LB into a potential strength would do so much for this team, that I can't see how one could argue that'd be a bad thing.
