Is Marvin Austin that big guy on UNC #9?

Edit: yes he is. I'd like him a lot as a pick.

What about the big defensive lineman from North Carolina, Marvin Austin?


WB: He looked great at the weight-in. Strong, well-built upper body. He looked the part. Got on the field. Wanted to be the first in pass-rush drills. Fired off the ball. Good first step for a big man. However, as a pass rusher, he's a bit linear. He doesn't really know how to use his hands yet. He's more of a push-pull guy, and as the week went on, people began to figure that out and just worked to anchor and cut him off. However, he was a bear to move in 9-on-7 or 11-on-11. He's one guy who I think could start as a nose tackle in a 4-3 and eat up blocks inside.
