Well, we desperately need a great pass rusher and he and Montgomery have the "it" factor. I've heard a lot of people were high on Montgomery last year and he was dominating the o-line in practice. The only reason he didn't play was because he needed to add weight to his frame. Ego is physically ready now.

With us getting Copeland...I think we'll be ok at DT for now. We'll slide Brockers in the middle too, which I hear the coaches are high on. I have no idea how a 6'6+ DT is going to do though. To me, that seems more like a 3-4 guy. I hope he can maintain leverage at that height...

I'm very high on Brockers...I think he's one of the better prospects from last year's class.

He looks mean.

A successful 6'6 DT in a 3-4 is a rarity due to the factor you listed: Gaining and maintaining leverage.
