Or Zach Kerr. Either has the potential to be outstanding. Look at Damon "Big Snacks" Harrison - he was a UDFA in 2012, and was an impact run stopper last year. You can find dominant run stoppers on day 3, or even as UDFAs. And Sealver Siliga has the potential to develop into a Harrison-type run stopper. Last year was the first time he really got on the field and into a consistent situation, and he has plenty of room to develop.
I'd still rather have a guy like Ellis who on occasion is athletic enough to use his athletic ability to shoot a gap and blow up a play. I know Kerr has good numbers on the drills but I don't like his tape as much as Ellis. But yes I more or less agree with your premise. There's no reason to over draft a Mount Cody when there's guys down the draft board every bit as good.
