Kawann Short, DT (No. 93)* -- Short has been one of the most productive defensive tackles in the nation this season. He led the Boilermakers with 17 tackles for loss and 6.5 sacks, also posting 53 tackles on the year. The junior is athletic, explosive and impossible to stop when on his game. Short presently ranks as a top-45 choice, but many scouts have stamped him with a first-round grade. 1st/2nd Round

Intriguing guy. If he comes out and is there in round 2, have to consider him.
