It’s a little disappointing, but realistically the odds of getting a starting DT the last couple of rounds is slim. The one pick I think they should have used for DT was their 1st pick in the 4th round. I don’t get the undersized, one dimensional DE they took.

Collins played all season on a broken foot, nobody knows how good he could be at the 1 tech.
blind---now that is totally true...maybe had he not had that foot condition he might have performed superbly at 1-tech...but for me he does not hold enough bulk...but remember the undersized tackle we got in 7th round like in 2009..he was not suppose to be good enough cause of his lack of size but he was almost the best in all of NFL...we got rid of him cause of his mouth..he liked to rip into Jerry a bit too much

Omer i am in agreement on that pick of Armstrong...we have enough DE's if we are going to look at other parts we need much more desperately...they must be happy with Collins at 1-tech and Price under him?....maybe the fact Collins had a bad foot last season was reason he was being bullied so much?...but i dont think he has enough bulk for 1-tech....but remember that pro bowl defensive tackle we got in 7th round in like 2009?....he was suppose to be way undersized but kick butt on double teams and penetrated....but of course it was his mouth that he fell to 7th round and it was his mouth that got him cut off our team

Jay Ratliff was drafted in 05, was an end in the 3-4 under parcells and kicked inside in wade's 3-4 as the starter after Jason Ferguson broke his elbow in week 1 in the 07 season.

Where is our starting defensive tackle? Not saying i hate any of the picks but are we really gonna roll with price or udfa as the 1 tech to anchor this line?
Opposing Offenses run up our gutt every year, yet no 1-techs. Unbelievable.

You mean Irving? Or Collins? Or Price? Or Crawford?
