He’s a big ol’ boy for sure. I’d love to have him, but I don’t think we have that luxury this year. I think we have to go OT and Edge with those first two picks.

Also, while maybe not as good as Sweat, there is some DT depth this year. Especially run stuffers.
Ruke Orhorhoro: Clemson 6-4, 290 lbs.
McKinley Jackson: aTm 6-1, 331 lbs.
Michael Hall: tOSU 6-1, 280 lbs.
Tyler Davis: Clemson 6-1, 300 lbs.
Gabe Hall: Baylor 6-5, 290 lbs.
Fabien Lovett: FSU 6-5, 305
Nathan Pickering: Moo State 6-2, 300 lbs.

Most of these guys will be day 2 and 3 picks, but should provide good run stoppage rotation.

Just my personal opinion but I feel the gap between a 1st round graded great run stopping DT and a 3rd round graded good run stopping DT isn't really that drastic. If you are going after a DT in the first round I would rather go for one that can rush the QB with consistency.

Sweat is my homie. One of the first people I met when I moved to ATX. Great dude, would love to have him on the Saints.

I think there is a lot of Dline depth in this draft.

Both inside and out. There will be solid pass rushers available in the second round and interior guys in later rounds.

That first pick needs to be OT in my opinion.

Probably why I’m not a NFL gm, but I wouldn’t mind every pick being either Oline or Dline.
You get one or two to hit and it’s a good draft.

I do find the tight end out of Penn State as a potential steal and Pratt from Tulane as a good QB prospect.
