He's certainly a great prospect, that's for sure.

But that Clemson defense would've certainly been a lot better than just average without him. They're loaded to the gills with four and five star recruits. They had the #3 scoring defense in the NCAA, #5 in yards. That wasn't due to just one guy.

Man...I know Clemson.  Future players will be great.  Current last year...young.  Simmons is different.  Without him they would have been very average.

I am interested in your opinion...give me your top guys?  Brown?

A top 5 defense goes to middle of that pack due to losing one player? LOL! No.

He's a great prospect But he wasn't the difference between Clemson being ranked top 5 in D and Clemson being ranked in the 50s or 60s. That's absurd.

Brown, Wills, Wirfs, Okudah, Simmons

I want one of those guys and honestly, that's probably my order. But I don't even think we're going to look at OTs at #7 and I think that's a mistake. Okung is 31, coming off of a injury plagued season, and is in the last year of his contract. Moton is also in the last year of his contract. A lot of talk hinting at Little moving inside to OG.

With our lack of depth at DL you have to go DL.  A great DL can make linebackers and corners look good, not vice versa.  Clemsons DL is extremely well coached (and talented), and it made Simmons job a lot easier.  Put him behind our DL right now and it’s a waste

    • Most teams OLs are dealing with injuries at the end of the season. So by that token all QB play should be horrific across the board, but it's not.  Using the OL as an excuse anytime a QB plays bad is just lazy.  This is the same OL when Bryce had his good games not so long ago.  So do they suck just when Bryce does bad? Obviously they played well enough when y'all were doing your victory laps and saying 'you told us Bryce was the man' in the victories. It goes back to my stance with Bryce all along...he's a low end starting QB.  He'd be a great backup. Bryce is going to have a few really nice games a season at this point in his career, with a few WTF games mixed in, but very middling overall.
    • Good Lord! I bet the O-line play wasn't the worst since 1980.  And @thebdawg, injuries absolutely can make for a bad showing at the end of the day. That's not an excuse, it's just a fact.
    • Defense stepped up after that and held them to a FG. Offense proceeded to turn it over on downs right after.  Was it an incredibly dumb penalty, of course it was. The defense played their asses off though and got zero help from the offense. If you force them to punt at that point instead of the penalty do you really think the offense does anything differently?
