If it's as you say, the guy showed up out of shape for the 2013 season, he still kicked ass with 7.5 sacks and all that went with it.
Now, it (Tuitt/Nix) could be a Mario Williams/rest of the NC State Defensive line or Julius Peppers/Ryan Sims thing where you have one guy kicking the shit out of stuff and the other guy cleaning up on it, both get drafted high in the NFL Draft, but it's obvious early that it's the one guy versus two or more guys having that talent level, but I don't think Kelly would have put up such a bitch about Tuitt leaving early if he wasn't the keystone of that defense.
I don't necessarily like him at the same stage as I did Michael Brockers for the five tech position, and it ultimately depends on what they do with Jackson in free agency, but Tuitt has a tremendous ceiling IMO.
That being said, that's why the guy isn't going to be around when the Chiefs pick. No way, no how. If I was one of the teams picking in the top ten, I'd be very tempted to take him over anybody in this draft. I think Jake Matthews is the best player in this draft, and then you could make the argument that Tuitt is right there behind him.
And the Joe Don pick is still awesome. Although, if I was picking a tight end around that area, Fresno State's Marcel Jensen is the guy. Huge, athletic and has a very high football IQ.
