His upside potential is too much to pass on, especially at a huge hole for us. He's slated to go right at 11, so it isn't a reach. He's got Wilfork potential. Boom or bust, but the upside is having a dominant NT for the next decade plus.

Big Chief Fan...you realize that you just described Ryan Simms. Simms was actually better coming out of college than Poe.
You don't draft at #11 based on potential...not if you want to build a winner. This isn't fantasy football. Careers are on the line here.
Proven production is what smart teams draft in the first round. Poe draws double teams because NTs draw double teams by design. He looks like he should be better than he is, right? But he ISN'T.
