He is overhyped around these parts, still a good player, but I'd rather have Xavier.

Keep seeing this but yet I fail to see it. Nobody is screaming that he needs to go anywhere other than projections.

You want hype? Try Kevin Johnson who people are afraid will never ever make it to 27 and he is just some can't miss first round CB.

This is a good player that might be around in the 2nd or 3rd. That's it.

Well I guess it comes down to where do you think he will go? Is he a second round guy.... I think he is a 3rd/4th guy. So to me yeah he is being overhyped.

Are people saying he will go higher than the 2nd or 3rd? If so, I must have missed it.

I'm a big fan of Kevin Johnson. Hell, I'm probably driving the bandwagon.

You're way off . He's better than Malcom Brown IMHO.

I am not so sure there, size wise we want a Brown, fight wise we want Grady. Both would fit well into our Defensive scheme. Hard to not fall in love with either IMO. Remember for the last couple of years our best in the forum normally get maybe one and possibly two draft picks correct. This year I think we have downplayed the Oline talent available and we are going to get blindsided in the 3rd or 4th rd. Just spit balling nothing to back this up.
Last year the Shazier love was well camouflaged not sure but looks like an absence of Defensive line Valley Ranch visits is suspicious.

I think Jarrett is interesting. He really reminds me of La'Roy Glover a lot. He's not as stout against the run but he is very disruptive off the snap. He is not Malcolm Brown and I would not take him over Brown. To me, Brown is a three down player and Jarrett is not. This is not to say that I would not like taking Jarrett. He has value if you can get him in the 2nd day but I think Brown is better. Of course, he's a 1st rd guy so you have to weight the value.

I don't buy these draft grades. I like to project where the players will be 3-4 years from now. The best 4-3 DT's are usually 6"1/6"2 and around 300 pounds. Being 6"4 like Malcolm brown is a disadvantage for him. I don't like the leverage he plays with. I like two DT's that are quick and can penetrate.

Like him a lot

I bet the Cowboys do too

I'd for sure be happy with him at 90, but seriously doubt he's there. Earlier 3rd maybe

W/ him and Brent on the nose.....that would be a pretty sweet combo. What does that mean for Hayden?

Who does everyone like better, Bennett or Jarrett?

Jarrett.

I do not dislike Bennett. I just cannot understand why there has been next to no buzz about him during the entire draft season.

There have been a ton of very successful DT,s that were bigger than what you have described. It's a big boy game down in the trenches.
