He could get down to 290-293 range imo and get that explosiveness back. In round 2 i would love it

Agree. but i dont think he gets down past 295. cutting .21 seconds off your 40 in a couple weeks is crazy tho. He worked his tail off.

Not to mention the 39-yard 40 that most college teams utilize on their Pro Days.

I read somewhere that his toughness has been questioned. If that's the case, I don't want him within 100 miles of Dallas. We need the opposite of that at Valley Ranch.
I remember Jimmy Johnson said he only drafted guys who liked the contact and liked to hit. He wouldn't even use a late round pick on a guy who didn't relish the contact... even if they were physically talented.
We definitely need to get back to that... so, if that is true about Sutton, then I don't want him even in the 3rd.

He weighed 297 today, down 6 lbs since the combine. I saw that the Cowboys also met with Bradford and Coleman today.

Sturm's write up
Here is a player who has not received any positive press in the last several months when it comes to his draft stock. In fact, he is spending most of his time being called fat by those who watch his 2013 film.
Sutton was asked to gain lots of weight because his coaches at Arizona State wanted him to play more Defensive Tackle in 2013 and they projected him as a force in the middle that would be unstoppable. However, as we saw so much at the Senior Bowl, the extra luggage he was carrying slowed down his cat-like speed in the trenches and actually made him a less appealing prospect. BUT, that doesn't mean that you should be scared away from a 22 year old who exhibits a number of traits that I would love to add to the Dallas roster.
Sutton is a stud and if you can just go back to his old weight of 290, you would see a player who looks just as troublesome as Aaron Donald. His USC game in 2012 was a thing of beauty as he had a violent game that was destructive in so many ways. That is who I would be betting on returning. He has a swim move and a relentless pass rush from the interior, and as his 37 TFLs in the last 2 seasons indicate, he will destroy some running plays with great ease.

In 2013, he looked bigger and also looked slower. He was chopped a few times in September, once in the Wisconsin game, and that looked like it slowed him down quite a bit as he might have transitioned into "careful to not get hurt before my draft" mode. All that is true, but with 53 destructive plays in 2012-13, I wouldn't call him "fatso". I would call him productive.
I think he is dropping weight and if so, he might be the 2nd best candidate for the 3-technique vacancy that is being left open by Jason Hatcher. I don't like him as much at 315, but this weight issue and his poor 2013 tape (relative to 2012) might allow him to fall down the board. If he is there when the Cowboys go up in the 2nd - and I am absolutely guessing on February 12th that he might be, then I sprint to the podium and take him while giggling (unless I don't already have Donald in the 1st Round).

I can't put my finger on it, but something about him really reminds me of Sapp and no, it's not the braids.

I would wet the bed if we got Donald/Ealy in the first and Sutton/Jernigan in the second.

Short arms bother me. I'm probably OK with him in R2 if we whiff on both Hatcher and a R1 DT. He'll have to stay in the mid-290's range though.

Yes, he seems like a Nevis clone.
