Bullpup969 68 Posted November 26, 2012 Share Posted November 26, 2012 We really need a anchor man for the middle. Probably even more than another D-end in my opionion. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

birdz4i 9,741 Posted November 26, 2012 Share Posted November 26, 2012 we could use a space eater to help with the hybrid 3-4 we run but there are more pressing needs. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

uvanell 7 Posted November 26, 2012 Share Posted November 26, 2012 I think we have a nose tackle already, just waiting to mature in ability, strength and size. Robertson is the only one of our dt's to come out of college 300+ pounds. A young man at his age can add 20 pounds of solid muscle easily. Also at his young age, he is said to be the strongest of all the linemen, and typically men don't reach full maturity in strength until the late 20's early 30's.

Optimus*Crimes 1,952 Posted November 26, 2012 Share Posted November 26, 2012 nahUsually agree with most of what you say, but IMO, our DTs have been pretty good this year. Babs has been outstanding. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Babs has been outstanding.im not saying that they aren't playing good but for me I wanna see them get more pressure on the qb. They are stellar against the run but they play a huge part in our weak pass rush. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
HEIST 5,268 Posted November 26, 2012 Share Posted November 26, 2012 (edited) Daniel Mccullers from Tennesee~6-7 360 pounds OF STRAIGHT UP MAN.Exactly what we need. He can be had at like round 3 because of the immense amount of DT depth in this draft. Edited November 26, 2012 by HEI5T Quote Link to post Share on other sites

hjerry 27,014 Posted November 26, 2012 Share Posted November 26, 2012 There is strong evidence that Nolan was searching for a NT last year, so he will probably seek one this year. I want a great DE too, but I'm not sure what prospects will be available at our pick, so it depends. Plus, Nolan is kinda limited schematically right now, and I think that's why he targeted NTs last year. He's shown the ability to dial up pressure through scheme, but can't do everything he would like to without that big NT. There are also a lot of interesting options this year, including: Star Lotulelei (Utah), Jesse Williams (Alabama), John Jenkins (UGA), Brandon Williams (Missouri Southern State), with even a few possible underclassmen like Jonathan Hankins (Ohio State), Louis Nix (Notre Dame), Daniel McCullers (Tenessee), and Kwame Geathers (UGA). There are a few to choose from, so I would be surprised to see us not picking one in, at least, one of the first three rounds. Having said that, though, it all depends on who's there and there is still a lot of time for needs and draft stock to change. It will certainly be interestingto see who we pick this year, and I'm arguably more excited to see who we pick than ever, now that we have a sampling of where are new team is headed. It will be fun to watch. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
falcon90 362 Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 We got a lot of speed DTs. They play well cause they fast but when you play an elite O line they can be moved. That is why we need a big DT who commands a double team and it would help out the other linemen and linebackers. Just think when Ray Lewis was asking for a guy to plug up the middle and they got Ngata. It allowed him to flow freely to the ball. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

A NT that will eat up blocks for LBs and pass rushers, be stout at stuffing the run up the middle, as well as get to the QB.Ngata can do it all. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
