    Out of those players... either DeCastro or Barron. Those guys will be instant stars for whatever team they go to.

    Out of those players, I picked DeCastro. But he's not going to be there.

    How the heck did Nick Perry go from "too small to play DE" to "able to play all 4 line positions" by gaining something like 7 lbs for the combine?

    I think Perry and Wimbley are similar players. I wouldn't mind Perry at all, but I think a different skillset (like one of the DT's or a G/C) would have more impact.

    The Cleveland Browns would disagree. Twice they've used the 21st pick on Centers. First on Jeff Faine in 2003, and then on Alex Mack in 2009.

    The Steelers used the 18th pick a few years ago on Maurkice Pouncey.

    Normally you'd be right, but there are some players worth reaching for. Alex Mack and Maurkice Pouncey are great Centers. If Peter Konz is great, which he may not be, but if he is, he's worth taking at 20.

    Exactly. Perry is actually smaller than Wembley and has never played a down at tackle.

    Well because Klug can play all 4, and Perry is better than him and stronger.

    My two options:

    Option A:
    (sign a vet C for 1-2 years)
    1st Round: DE - Nick Perry
    2nd Round: BPA
    3rd Round: Ben Jones, C, UGA

    Option B:
    1st Round: Peter Konz
    2nd Round: Vinny Curry
    3rd Round: BPA

    No. Hopefully we learned our leasson with JJ. Don't take your 'athletic' pass-rushing DTs, and switch them to DEs.
