Graham and Grant are SOOO MUCH BETTER than Mazi at the same stage of development (they both are probably better than him PERIOD!!!!!). They shut down 2 NFL caliber backs today, making plays at or near the LOS. Please don’t hold Taco and Mazi over their heads. If Graham and Jeanty are gone when Dallas picks, Grant is a good consolation prize.

I'd take either one of those DTs.
 
Mentioned in another post - it will be interesting to see what Graham’s measures at the combine. He doesn’t seem 6-3 320. Don’t get me wrong his play is awesome and I might be thinking of a way he might drop into the low teens.

I really like Grant. It looks like they have a shot at getting him. I also like Graham and Jeanty as well.
 
I just see Grant as more of a 2nd round option - he has pass rush potential but doesn’t have the production to warrant the pick IMO.
 
Not liking a player bc of their school
is so ignorant. Those dudes are studs!

How is the DT from Kentucky….Walker I think….playing and where is he projected to go at this point?

I don’t watch much college ball anymore.

A Grant/Mazi/Osa rotation would be a good way to stop the run. I would take Grant in the middle of the first. He would free up the linebackers.

Also - don’t give up on Mazi…he’s getting better every game and some DTs take a while. Fingers crossed.
If the coach has a weird system or something like that I can understand it. But just because its Michigan (which by the way I despise) means nothing.
 
Graham is closer to being Hutchinson level good probably in that he has some elite traits and incredible hustle. Mazi is closer to Taco, physical ability but little production.

(Feel dirty giving Mazi the Taco comparison with him trending up the last few games but he was historically bad to start his career).

I'm less sold on Grant but have not watched tape of him specifically, just in the peripheral of Graham.

Grant was a stud today vs OSU. Both of them were/ Absolutely shut down OSU running game

I’m a huge fan I just can’t take a DT in the first that doesn’t have pass rush production unless we’re picking in the 30s…
