Surely we all know that it takes a couple of years (often more) for a defensive lineman to make the jump to the NFL. Nutrition, off-season strength training, technique development and refinement ... they all contribute to the player's ability to effectively transition. And those are not switch-flip deals ... they require time and dedication and more time.

I'm not giving up on Speaks yet. Not at all. I see his fat ass as a potential run-game base and, given Clark's influence on him, he could be a 2019 wildcard. I will gladly discard Ragland, though.

I've seen several people weigh in on Ragland and universally they have been impressed by his athleticism and aggressiveness this season. By all accounts he looks very good in camp and if we're speaking exclusively on merit, he'll have made the team.

And by the same token, Speaks has looked lethargic and caught in between. From what I've read/heard, his draft status is the only reason he'll make the team.
