Five who truly raised their stock during Senior Bowl practices

Put him at DE to replace Dorsey. Duh.

He is a good pass rusher and he's the same size as Ngata.

He's 6'2" and fat.

You have no idea what a prototypical DE is supposed to be, do you?

So, after drafting Poe, having Powe, you want Williams? A guy that's going to have a harder time transitioning to the NFL than Poe?

Three nose tackles? Two of whom are going to play the DE positions?

That's great.

He's not fat you dumbass.

He's stout with definition.

Yeah, he's svelt as all get out.

So, you're telling me that having three nose tackles is the correct choice for this team?

Just because he's that big doesn't mean he's a NT. He can easily play DE. He's shown the speed to get to the QB all this week.

That's great. As a NT.

He's a shade under 6'2" and doesn't have long arms. He's not a defensive end by any stretch in any system.

And the Senior Bowl always favors the defensive linemen - in the one on ones and the game itself. Add to that, he's coming out of a small school. His adjustment period to the NFL is going to be a long, slow, steep climb unless he's a prodigy level guy like Jared Allen.

I think you're making too big of a deal for his arm length. Sylvester Williams is a first round 3-4 DE prospect and his arm length is the same. Same for Everette Dawkins and he's a 2nd/3rd round pick.

Even Dontari Poe has shorter arm length and many thought he would be a 3-4 DE like Haloti Ngata.

I agree with the small school comparison though. You don't think he'd be a good developmental prospect in the late 3rd or 4th round?

Allen wasn't a prodigy. He was a D1 recruit that couldn't control himself.

Off the field troubles led to him going to a small school.
