If you want to know about those very impressive North defensive tackles, you only have to go to Wood:
B.J. Raji, 6-1, 335, Boston College: "We've got the same agent and I work out with him in California. He's having a great week. When we were watching SportsCenter on ESPN tonight, a feature on him came up and I couldn't be happier for him.
"You have to make sure you keep your balance with him. He's so explosive and uses his strength so well. What he's really good at is rushing the passer. That's why he's getting a lot of attention. A lot of tackles can plug the hole, but the pass rushers are the moneymakers. A guy like that, the only thing you're trying to do is block him. Just block him."
Ron Brace, 6-2, 330, Boston College: "He's almost as powerful as B.J. and almost as effective. He's not quite as active, but he's a powerful guy that likes to two-gap you and plug it up."
Ziggy Hood, 6-3, 295, Missouri: "He's quick. He's got decent pass-rush moves. You can't ever extend yourself against him or he'll embarrass you."
Mitch King, 6-1, 280, Iowa: "He plays real well with his hands and he's pretty powerful."
Plus, there is Pittsburgh linebacker Scott McKillop, another guy Wood knows well because they are also represented by agent David Dunn and are roommates when they train in California. "He's always by the ball or making the tackle," Wood said.
