He holds his ground while eating up double teams all game long and when you screw up and try to block him with a single blocker he will make you pay the price

I really like this kids upside

Derek Barnett looks the part as well as Reuben Foster.

Analysis on Reuben Foster of Alabama. He is HIGH on my list @ pick #11.

We could do worse than Reuben Foster...

I just like the idea of getting a young, edge rusher with terrific range and athleticism in space opposite Jordan...

It would shore up our line and give us terrific reserves...

Imagine a front four rotation of Jordan/Gwachum or FA-Rankins/Fairley or FA -Davison/Onyemata-McDowell/Kruger...

Now that could be a very special front...

And it'd make life easier for our poor CBs too...

If you want an impact player then take Reuben foster in the first round and go DE in the second.

The Dude · 01-13-2017, 12:22 PM

I think the edge rusher is the best option. One pick that immediately helps two position groups. I'm not sure we need to draft a DB if we shore up our line. At least not in early rounds.

Got caught with a gun earlier this year to boot. as a player he is more of a one trick at DE. That is why I like Ryan more.
