I would prefer anywhere between #7 and #10.
If you take #7, you should still be able to pick up a top RB (Tomlinson, McGahee, Holmes, Dillon, etc.). Coming back in the 2nd round, QBs will be ready to go. Either Peyton Manning or Daunte Culpepper could still be there. If not, you could grab McNabb or a top WR (TO, Moss).

What 6 players are going ahead of Tomlinson? I can't think of a single reason not to take him first. He's clearly head and shoulders above any other player.

Tomlinson is a worthy #1 pick, but no way is he head and shoulders above the rest of the top players. In 7 more games, he only had 3 more TDs than Priest Holmes. Willis McGahee, in his limited role with the Bills last year, was only 200+ rushing yards behind Tomlinson.
If Manning can duplicate his '04 numbers, he should also go ahead of Tomlinson.
