Either that or they went into the off season with nothing at NT, and had to reach for the best available NT, even though he wasn't a good fit for the scheme.

But the fact is, Poe walked in as a 2-3 year project, which means pioli won't have made nose tackle a priority until after his fifth year. Qbs will be a 2-3 year project too, so even if he drafts one, that means pretty much the same thing. Poe is the kind of gamble pioli should have made years ago. Good that he fnally took that risk. But too little too late, and he's being exposed for it big time. |

Good idea. We can pass on these guys just like that scrub QB for the Clones

Jake Knott and AJ Klein are in the discussion with them. Did you miss the "arguably" part in arguably best?

Whether you recognize it or not, you still have to be able to stop the run.
We were gashed by the Bills in the running game. Belcher started to show some progression as a pass defender last year, but has regressed this season. But in the base 34, Belcher is one of the reasons that DJ was blowing up plays over the last couple of seasons. Belcher isn't the useless player many/most of you make him out to be. When he is not on the field, this run defense is terrible.

Your ISU homer posts make his homer USC posts look negative by comparison.

Because I think these two are the only two locks to be drafted, which they are? And almost anyone who knows college football would agree this is one of the best duo's in college football?

Even Bleacher Report who hates Iowa State gives them love, even though they are still ranked too low.
#11 LB- Jake Knott As a whole, Iowa State's defense was far from stellar last season, as the Cyclones ranked 95th in the country in total defense in 2011, giving up an average of 427 yards per game. Still, it would be unfair to blame the unit's struggles on the team's two leading tacklers—linebackers Jake Knott and A.J. Klein, as the two defensive leaders both played at an elite level last year. Both 'backers deserve plenty of credit for their performances in 2011, but the real player to watch this season will be Knott. Last year, the 6-foot-3, 239-pound senior was one of the most productive linebackers in the country, registering 115 total tackles, including six games with at least 10 tackles. Knott may have been an unheralded 2-star recruit coming out of Iowa's Waukee High School. However, he's proven that while he may not be be an top-notch athlete; he's got the type of heart, passion and desire that it takes to thrive and succeed in a prestigious conference like the Big 12. #25 LB- AJ Klein Like his fellow teammate Jake Knott, A.J. Klein was not a very highly rated recruit coming out of Wisconsin's Kimberly High School. In fact, the only BCS scholarship offer he received was from Iowa State. The former lightly recruited high school prospect has definitely made all of those big BCS schools that didn't give him a chance regret their decision, as he's developed into one of the Big 12's most disruptive defenders during his time in Ames. Last year, the 6-foot-2, 244-pound senior earned Big 12 Co-Defensive Player of the Year honors after leading the Cyclones with 116 total tackles. Klein and Knott belong in the discussion with every other top linebacker duo in college football, and the two tough, gritty 'backers have what it takes to go toe-to-toe with any offense that the Big 12 has to offer.

TBF RustShack, I haven't watched them play at all. I'll try to watch some tape on them and give an opinion.
