Time to revisit Brockers, especially since New England is one of the teams he is visiting in the weeks to come. We know he has the length and the weight to strive as a 3-4 DE.
On his pro day, he got his time down into the 5.1 range.
At the combine he only did 19 reps.
His film from last season, especially in the BCS championship game, is amazing.
I think there is good reason to believe he is slipping on some draft board.
No doubt in my mind, that he needs a red shirt year in our defense, but at the same time after the red shirt year, if he develops under the watchful eye of Pepper, he could be the next Seymour in our defense.
Is he worth trading up to go get? How much do we trade?
In my mind if we can trade #31 and #48 to move up to #15, to take him,that would still leave us #27 for ILB/OLB Hightower, #63 for FS Martin, the third rounder for OT Potter and the fourth rounder for OLB Bequette, maybe.
