    Tyson Jackson as the top ranked DE baffles me.

    Man, I'm not happy with this DT class. After Jerry and Raji it really drops. I was really hoping Suh would have declared for the draft.

    How can you have ends like Larry English as ends when they're going to be 3-4 OLB's and then have ends like Connor Barwin in the OLB category?

    Makes no sense.

    it's tough to categorize those players. There isn't a position called Hybrid defensive end/ outside linebacker. Since more teams play the 4-3, I labeled majoraity of the Outside Linebacker/Defensive End types as Defensive Ends. That make sense

    you should do your rankings based on our defense. meaning 3-4 OLBs and 3-4 DEs and NTs, etc.

    I was going to post this in Reals' other thread, Top 50 prospects, but since they shut that down, I will post it here. As Chris said, copying is going on. I honestly don't know if it is or isn't in Reals instance, but I can bet you that 95 percent of this site is doing just that...copying. Regardless, all of you are hearing things from others, none of you are 100% doing your own true research. Some of you maybe close, but you are all still talking to other scouts, other personnel who have a heads up in the business. Not everyone has the inside sources. Some just watch ESPN, and read websites. Some of these people are just fans of the dolphins, not draftniks who sit by the computer/tv all day watching dudes. I understand crossing territories, but we are all dolphins fans here. Cheers! Man up, Beer down.
