I like Newton, Murphy, Robinson, and Sweat like others here. Later round guys like Gabe Hall and J. Jefferson from LSU. Not too enamored with this class either.

The more I look at the class the more I think we need to sort DT in FA. We're either working miracles to keep Jones or we're going after 2 guys a tier or 2 lower than him. Fine to get a R4-5 guy in this draft but man there's not much earlier than that that appeals to me

Jenkin's sounds interesting:
"He made the 2023 list of Bruce Feldman Freaks at #6 - he said: "Jenkins recently did a Turkish get-up with a 170-pound dumbbell — the heaviest Herbert has ever witnessed. Jenkins does pull-ups with a 100-pound weight strapped to his waist. He also moves incredibly well for being a 300-plus pounder, running a 7.16 3-cone, a 4.33 shuttle, broad-jumping 9-8 and vertical-jumping 34 inches. Jenkins’ shuttle and 3-cone times are both almost two-tenths of a second faster than the quickest interior defensive lineman did at this year’s NFL combine. His broad jump would be tied for the best. His vertical jump would be second-best, and only Smith topped his number on the bench press." |
Dane Brugler's Top 100 Big Board DT Rankings (2/13):
1. Byron Murphy II (15 overall) 2. Jer'Zhan Newton (30 overall) 3. T'Vondre Sweat (33 overall) 4. Ruke Orhorhoro (52 overall) 5. Kris Jenkins (66 overall) 6. Michael Hall Jr. (79 overall) 7. Brandon Dorlus (83 overall) 8. Braden Fiske (90 overall) |
Sign me up for some Sweat with Cullen and our group to help him with the maturity. If he falls deeper in the second that is.

I wouldn't be surprised if he ends up going in the 20's though, he had a 15.4% pass rush win ratio from the NT position at Texas! That's tied with Newton by the way who's 72 lbs lighter than Sweat. |

If we then brought in a guy R2-3 to drip feed in that'd be fine by me. What's interesting to me is how little Veach has cared about the position. Is that just because we've had Jones filling the role of 2 people? Or does he just see the position as one you can fill cheaply. Should find out this year. So far rhe approach has worked pretty damn well. |
This guy is a monster.

Evan Anderson might be a guy in the 6th or 7th round worth considering.
Florida Atlantic, listed at 6-0 319 lbs on one site and 6-3 356 lbs on another? Had 5 sacks and 11 tackles for a loss from the NT position last year. 83.7% run defense grade 72.4% true pass rush grade. |

But he'd be on it at least. |
