    Hey from France

    The draft will be here soon now, and I need your opinion on the DT position
    Do you think Willis could be our third or fourth DT come September or does he's only a PS player and we need to draft a DT to put in the DT rotation ?

    I think we are lacking depth on the defensive line. We should draft at least one if not two defensive linemen next week.

    I think we need to draft a big nose tackle a gap type player. Raekwon Davis from alabama would be a good pick around the second or third round. Kinlaw also with our 1b pick could fill that need.

    Clearly we have needs on the interior D line. I imagine we will draft a couple and they will most likely pick up a couple of udfa's immediately after.

    Slightly left of center
    Derrick Brown at 5 or after trade down to 6 or 7 and Loki Fotu in 3rd. And pick up a vet. The middle of our defense hasn't been able to stop anybody for years. Fix it.

    I'm sure I'm in the minority but I think I'd rather have Kinlaw over Brown.

    Leki is a big strong dude, but he has a bad motor, takes plays off, and has bad overall technique.

    I would much rather we target a Raekwon Davis, Kinlaw, or Brown to fill the need at nose tackle.

    Brown and Kinlaw would likely require either #5 or a trade up from 18, and I wouldn't value either highly enough to do that personally, not at the expense of a QB and additional resources. You want to trade up, do it for an LT, not an DT.

    Davis is a good planet theory guy, but also has some questions, namely how a dude with his measurables playing at Bama was just kind ... ok. Still, I wouldn't complain if we took him in round 3. Davon Hamilton is a big dude who would also intrigue in that bottom 2 through 3/4 range.
