Y'all are way oversold on the defensive players and these rookie LTs.
And undersold on the defensive players at the top of the draft.
None of these players besides Butler have NFL experience with a 3-4. Besides Lofton and Jordan, the only experience this front seven has is getting their asses handed to them on a regular basis.
As for the LT spot. Yeah, having Bushrod back may have given us more comfort, but he wasn't a stud. He was average and there's no reason Brown or Smith can't be just as average. And nobody is saying these LTs in the draft are potential stud LTs who you plug in and play for the next 10 years. They've actually said if they were in past drafts, they would be late first, early second rounders. They could be the next Robert Gallery.

You've been missing the word then. I've heard several people(and these are actual former front office and talent evaluating people, not Kiper or the espn goons) say the top 2 are some of the best LT prospects in years outside of only a couple of guys the past 5 or so drafts. They said Johnson is close to on par with Joeckel and Fisher and not to be too surprised if teams value each differently.
