2024-25 NFL Draft Prospects

[GatorAZ]

The edge prospects in our range leave a lot to be desired. Very BJ Ojulari-ish.

True if you’re thinking round 2

Here’s a technical question.

Would a dominant DT help our pass rush?
Would a dominant pass rusher help our d-line.
Which would help more?

Depends on the player.
I personally prefer middle pass rush because when a qb can't step up the play is broken.
Aaron Donald.....

However, a guy with real twitchy quicks can often get to a qb before he finishes his drop, and outside guys are often harder to double team.
Chandler Jones-Micah Parsons.....

The DT often has the added benefit of helping you stop the run moreso than an edge guy...usually...some dudes can rush but are shyte against the run.

A good team really should have both. But if you have a superstar level DT, you can put average guys on the edges and still get 8 sacks a year from them because they will mop up once the DT flushes the qb.... but those DTs are hard to find and are why even with flags Carter went high in the draft.

Matthew Golden, Texas’ leading wide receiver in 2024, tells ESPN he’s leaving school early and declaring for the NFL Draft. He had team-highs with 987 yards and 9 receiving touchdowns. He finished with 54 catches and averaged 17 yards per catch.

Tricky question! A. DT who collapses the pocket would help other pass rusher quite a bit. Of course Edges get more sacks as that’s their role.

Kenneth Grant is very interesting. Can he become a similar player to Vita Vea? Is he just a 2 down NT whose athleticism doesn't really show up on the field?

I guess my question was if we could get one, which one would benefit us more.

IMO. An Aaron Donald is more impactful than a Lawrence Taylor in today's NFL (not saying Donald is a better player historically than LT). Getting an interior player who can generate pressures and double digit sacks is tough to beat.

I feel like Carter is a better rush prospect than Will was.

Completely agree. Anderson is good but he doesn't quite hit the elite edge arena. Carter can be special.
