So what DL do I need to be watching

[CATCH17]

I hate College football so maybe if I knew some of the prospects I could get into it a little better.

[CATCH17]

Wow thanks guys.

 

[TheCoolFan]

Malcom Brown and Eddie Goldman...both beasts

 

[bodi]

Markus Golden, DE, 6-3 #260 Missouri

Despite playing an estimated 40 percent of the snaps last season, Golden recorded 55 tackles, including 13 tackles for loss and 6.5 sacks. Golden also broke up eight passes


Alvin Dupree, DE, 6-4 #270 Kentucky

I think Shane Ray, DE, 6-3 #245 Missouri - this is just to light to play DE in the Pros
are two picks I am looking at

 

[supercowboy8]

Nate Orchard. Guy is a beast and would be perfect develop guy to play strong side

 

[rockj7]

Both will be long gone before we pick, unfortunately.

Not unfortunatly if we pick last fingers crossed

 

[Doomsdayblitz]

Many good names mentioned already. However, we can't afford to select another offensive player in the first round, bundle multiple high picks for players who don't even see the field, or reach two or three rounds because somehow we're so much more "enlightened" than the rest of the league. Just watch Ozzie, Bill, the Seahawks, Steelers, & Niners. Most drafts, they stay right where they are, pick great players, & kick butt with them every season. So, knock off the bundling crap, take the best defensive player on the board, & move on. We must get another speed rusher, penetrating DTs at both the 3 & 1 techniques, and lots of CBs NOT from LSU.

What DL do I need to be watching?

Keep and Eye on this guy for the DRAFT.. projection is 2 - 4 but with 11 sacks already this year in the pac-12 where there are good OT's he might be rising.

http://nflmocks.com/2014/10/07/nfl-draft-watch-utahs-nate-orchard-racking-sacks/

1. Nate Orchard, DE, Utah
   Height: 6-4. Weight: 255.
   Projected 40 Time: 4.78.
   Projected Round (2015): 2-4.
   10/18/14: Orchard has been one of the breakout players of the 2014 season. He has been a pass-rushing animal for the Utes with huge pass pressure. Orchard has a fast first-step with the speed to turn the corner. He also has strength to shed blocks and holds up well in run defense. Orchard's pass-rushing ability has been on display as he had four sacks against UCLA. In 2014, the senior has 10.5 sacks with 39 tackles, 13 tackles for a loss and three passes batted.
   
   As a junior, Orchard had 50 tackles with 8.5 tackles for a loss and three sacks, so he has shown a huge improvement as a senior. He had 48 tackles with three sacks as a sophomore.
   
   Personal: Son of Ana Fakahafua and stepfather is Leti Fonhemia, guardians are Dave and Katherine Orchard. Married with a daughter. Will graduate with a degree in economics in the fall of 2014.

It's a little early to worry about listed sizes. You won't know until the all-star games, combine, and pro days to know what size they are. Ware was 6-4 245 early on. Lawrence was listed barely over 250. So even at that size they can still play the right side if they play with strength.
