Based on that play and that game Baldinger is talking nonsense.

Cowboys are using Nascar rush on that play and they wreak holy hell, despite the fact Vikes have four on that side to block just two Cowboys. There are maybe eight great bull-rushing DTs in the NFL. Unless they somehow draft Bresee (unlikely) in first round Dallas won't be adding one this offseason.

Kancey could be on the board at 26, but he's not a bull rusher. More a Osa+ type player.

Everyone in the world has been saying this. When a team can triple team Micah, that means the rest of the line is garbage.
Parsons, 13.5
Armstrong 8.5
Fowler 6
Lawrence 6.0
Wilson 5.0
Williams 4.0
Osa 4.0

The rest of the line isn't garbage! Cowboys #3 in all of NFL in sacks.

I know one thing. Ever since Mazi became a starter in Michigan Ohio St keeps taking Ls and can't run the ball. Hmmm but let me stop dreaming
I'd like Mazi and think the Cowboys would too. But let's not pretend the guy is going to add to the pass rush!

In his entire 3 year career Smith has .5 sack. That's right, one half of a sack in 28 games.

I disagree. Think he will be better in the pros but I'm not getting into a back and forth about it. I'm just clinging to my hope that we draft him. Let me dream please!

Kancey is interesting as pass rusher, but he's absolutely going to get washed on run plays. Listed at 6'0 280 and you look at him and he sure doesn't look all of that.

Wouldn't hate him as a pick but he has huge bust potential with his small frame and very short arms.

I'd rather play Sam Williams at DT some than Kancey.

I’d love a nasty DT but they’re hard to find. We also were 3rd in the NFL in sacks so there’s that.

Carter and Kancey are the only 2 in this class that have serious pass rush juice and Kancey is going to get destroyed against the run so can’t take him at 26.

Best option might be a tweeter guy like Adetomi that rushes inside from the nickel but we didn’t meet with him.

Yeah this isn't the draft for that. Have to hope you hit on a Ratliff type.
