Re: 12 DL have first round rankings
Seems like every other draft season, we have a boat-load of defensive linemen that have these first-round rankings, yet three, four seasons down road, only two, maybe three actually realize their value...
Yes Carolina has a good defensive line, but very few people can name them; but more people are familiar with Denver's Derek Wolfe and Malick Jackson, who were second and fifth round picks, respectively... The only three defensive linemen I'd consider taking in the first round are Jarran Reed, Kevin Dodd and LaTech's Vernon Butler - and that would be with Pick Nos. 20 and later... Just don't want to see us "reach" on a defensive lineman at No. 12 when this class is very deep at DL and not much will seperate these players in a couple of seasons... The success has more to do with coaching and scheme than whether they were taken in the first round vs second and fifth round... |
