2 sacks today thus far against Northwestern. 7.5 on the year from the interior as a D tackle. Wouldn't be mad at all if he ended up our 3 tech.

I wouldn’t be opposed to drafting him, especially as an Illini fan, except for the fact we spent a second and a third last year on DT

Agreed. Would be hard to spend more high level draft capital at the position.

I really like him but I think I‘d rather go with an Edge. Probably the more impactful position and we could need a young passrusher next to Montez Sweat. Possibly with a trade down to get a 2nd and select a WR2 with it

He's more talented than both of the dts drafted last year in my opinion

I thought those were shitty picks back then, and I still feel they are. Those should have been 3rd or 4th round backs. Dexter and Pickens look like JAGS

Depth is valuable. Philly D line is loaded and routinely gets it done.

[–] SwissyVictory@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Philly is loaded everywhere. It's not like they have holes elsewhere and loaded up their line.
