Wow! What a great look at the DT position heading into the final month leading up to the draft. To be honest I think DT and OG are probably the two least discussed positions ( other than special teams specialists) so this was great. While I am well aware of our need I have to admit I hadn’t done much homework on that spot yet. This was a great head start. 👍

Surprised not to see Karl Brooks, defensive tackle from Bowling Green on the list.

Supposedly had an excellent senior bowl week but was not a combine invitee.

Quite a few draft writers have him going in the 4-6 range.
