Tell you what. I would take him just based on his fathers career. Larry Allen was one the my favourite all time Cowboys.

CBS has Sutton rated as the top WR for next year, so kiss him goodbye. Is Hand no. 94? If so, he is a monster.Just a few off the top of my head...

Sutton is excellent, things obviously change between now and the draft though so it's a little early to count most players out for us.
Yeah that's Hand, he's a house. Not your traditional NT prospect from Bama either, kid has quickness and snap to him. Saw an interview about a month ago where he's trying to get his weight between 305-310 for the season... would be a dominant DT for us in this scheme, star at either position.

Thats how we got stuck with LB Carpenter 1st round pick of Parcels..........cause his father Rob Carpenter was a solid FB with his Giants..........
Lets let Will McClay do his process, and then take him....

2. Sam Hubbard
Had Sam Hubbard opted to enter the 2017 NFL Draft, the Buckeyes defensive end would likely been picked high — perhaps in the first round. Instead, Hubbard opted to return to Ohio State for his redshirt junior season, where he’ll help anchor one of the nation’s top defensive lines.
With the versatility to also play linebacker, the former lacrosse standout is already on the radar of NFL teams. Even if he doesn’t post big numbers in the coming year, the 6-5, 265-pound Hubbard should hear his name called sooner rather than later in the next draft.
1. Jerome Baker
At this time a year ago, linebacker Jerome Baker was preparing to backup Dante Booker on the Buckeyes’ depth chart.
What a difference a year makes.
Story continues below
After a Booker injury in the season opener paved the way for a breakout season from his understudy, Baker enters his junior campaign as one of the top defensive players in college football. The Cleveland native has also garnered attention for his potential in the pros, with Bleacher Report’s Miller projecting him as a first-round pick.
At 6-1, 225 pounds, Baker is similar in size to former Ohio State linebackers Ryan Shazier and Darron Lee. Perhaps it’s not a coincidence that both of those players were drafted in the first round. Baker appears to be next in line in the lineage of NFL-ready Buckeyes linebackers.

Malik Jefferson*, ILB/OLB, Texas
Height: 6-3. Weight: 238.
Projected 40 Time: 4.68.
Projected Round (2018): 1-3.
4/13/17: In 2016, Jefferson recorded 59 tackles with 5.5 sacks and three passes broken up. The numbers don't illustrate how good of a linebacker he was. Jefferson was highly recruited and showed why as a freshman contributor for the Longhorns. He totaled 61 tackle with seven for a loss, 2.5 sacks, three passes broken up and one forced fumble in 2015. Jefferson had a bigger presence than the numbers illustrate.
The junior has a nice combination of size and speed. He has a ton of upside, and it wouldn't be surprising if he is in store for some massive seasons for Texas.
Kendall Joseph*, ILB/OLB, Clemson
Height: 6-0. Weight: 230.
Projected 40 Time: 4.65.
Projected Round (2018): 1-3.
4/13/17: Ben Boulware got a lot of attention, but Joseph was the best linebacker on Clemson's National Championship team. Joseph totaled 108 tackles with 12.5 tackles for a loss, two forced fumbles, 3.5 sacks and one interception on the year. He is a fast and instinctive defender

Cameron Smith - USC
It didn't take long for the NFL hype to reach Cameron Smith.
The 6-foot-2, 245-pound inside linebacker had 78 tackles and three interceptions in only 10 games as a true freshman in 2015. He's quick, instinctive, a responsible blitzer and good-enough in coverage. Smith had 83 tackles, seven tackles for loss and four pass breakups last year.

Porter Gustin, DE/OLB, USC (Jr., 6-5, 260)
With the return of defensive coordinator Clancy Pendergast, Gustin moved from outside linebacker to defensive end. The change padi off for both Gustin and the team, as the former five-star prospect piled up 13 tackles for a loss to go along with 5.5 sacks.
Numbers aside, Gustin wreaked havoc rushing off the edge. His game is a powerful combination of speed and strength, and he's only scratched the surface of his lofty potential.

Tyquan Lewis, DE, Ohio State
The Goods:
School: Ohio State Position: Defensive End Class: Senior Height: 6-5 Weight: 266 lbs Projected Draft Round: 1-2
Scouting Report:
As part of a loaded defense the last few years, Lewis has been extremely productive, with 8 sacks and 10 TFL’s last year. A powerful edge rusher, this year will be a potential break out year into super elite status if he can continue his productivity, putting together three very solid years as a pass rusher.
