With the deepest DT tackle class in history upon us. Which one will go on to have the best career?

Now I bet 8/10 people will post either Suh or McCoy, and I don't think Suh will be great in the NFL considering he has had 2 knee surgerys already. I believe 1-2 good-great years and he will level out to become an average DT.

McCoy will become a good one, but that is not my pet-cat at DT this year.





mine is;

Brian Price(6'1 303 pounds) out of UCLA, he is built in the mold of Jay Ratliff(6'4 303 pounds). The new era of DTs is upon us, Ratliff has opened the door for undersized/quicker DTs in the NFL, Brian Price will be the second(after Jay) to dominate using this new standard.

Suh. Total beast.

In fact, I was going to start a thread asking if anyone here would take McCoy over him. I just don't see it.

I too, think Ndamakong Suh is going to be outstanding from the start. I'm an OU fan, know members of the McCoy family, and I believe he'll be good, but Suh is the "once in a generation player" the NFL people talk about.

People are mocking him to the Giants and that scares me.

Totally Agree, he has it all, like a randy white, reggie white

Why do you say so? Just curious.

I'm not an OU fan like Batman, but OU is one college team I see play quite a bit, and McCoy has never stood out half as much as Suh to me.

I would still take Suh, but one advantge I think McCoy has is he keeps his pad levels so low and he's so explosive off the snap. Suh just likes to stand straight up and out-physical his guy at the point of attack, and that style is going to open himself up to veteran professional offensive linemen will have a lot more tricks and techniques up their sleeve to neutralize Suh's raw physical prowess than college offensive linemen had. But it's more a preference of style. If you wanted more of a one gap penetrator ala Warren Sapp, you might lean towards McCoy.

From what I've seen from McCoy I liked, I'm not doubting Suh's abilities at all I think he's a beast, but I always like taking the underdog type players :D. I hate OU but McCoy will be beast, atleast I think.

I think it's going to be Suh - I don't think either him or McCoy are going to be Hall of Famers personally, but they will be good players.

The best player out of this draft is going to be Russell Okung IMO - I think he'll see Canton some day.

Okung & Eric Berry are the same picks for best of the class.


My picks are; Eric Berry, Jason Fox, Matt Nichols and Brian Price.
