To pair with Big D? 

Im intrigued by Alim McNeil, honestly despite that hes not thought of as a penetrator type. He is known as a guy who plays three downs and generates a ton of pressure. 

Imagine him and Brown pushing that pocket in while, Burns and Co. are coming around the edge.

Early I like Nixon and McNeil.  Later for a pass rusher Ta'Quon Graham out of Texas.  Versatility and a frame capable of filling out.  Then there is Khyiris Tonga a huge man who will occupy multiple blockers.  Lastly Dion Novil is a small school beast with  impressive size.  6'4" and 330 pounds with decent movement skills.  I feel like we need two guys at DT.  A pass rush guy and a space eater.  With bigger needs and the recent draft of Derrick Brown I don't think Barmore, Nixon or Levi O are options because of how early they will likely be drafted.

I really like Jay Tufele. Seems like a well rounded tackle that can do it all. He would be my top choice for DT in the entire draft.
 

If we wait a little, I like Jaylen Twyman.  

I like both of them as well as Darius Stills if we wait late. Apparently Rhule likes him from the senior bowl

I think Jay and Jaylen are third or fourth round types, but Jay is like you said, more well rounded. 

Jaylen and Darius are third down pass rush types for now.

none before the 5th round

I can't get on board with that.  I would say none in the 1st or 2nd.  If I had an ideal round it would be the 3rd.  LOTS of value at DT in the 3rd.  Honestly I hope we trade back in the 3rd to get an extra pick in the 4th, that way we can target OL AND corner there.  Man, I really wish we had an extra 3rd this year.  So much value there this year for multiple positions.

I think DT is the lowest overall rated group. TE is carried by Pitts and couple of 2nd(late) guys. DT only has Levi Onwuzurike, who is rated everywhere. Id much prefer focus on OT, OL, CB, QB, LB with the first 4 rounds. Marvin Wilson and Barmore are about the only ones worth 2-3 rounder. Just a super weak class, value doesnt match til about the 5th for me. 

I disagree with their being value in 3rd, still what names do you believer will be there and worth the 73rd pick? I feel WR will still hold the best value advantage over DT, but its not a big need. I dont believe Paye is a DT, you may feel different. I still feel the edge group will be loaded for the 39th pick tho...

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By strato · Posted

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.

      Moton Meets the Press

      By Pejorative Miscreant · Posted

      Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.
