Here's my list...
Michael Brockers - Might have to trade up a few spots to get him. Could be an impact player. High ceiling, and even if he doesn't reach his full potential, he will still be a good player. Ideal size at 34 DE, will develop into a great run stopper. Not a good pass rusher now, but gets his hands up and bats down passes. Time to trade up and take a big DLineman prospect as Pryor, Love, and Deaderick are all average at best.
Courtney Upshaw - Falling draft stock due to questions about his athletic ability. Jets apparently like him at #16. If they don't draft him, he could slip to us at #27. His game tape speaks for itself. The guy is a football player and has experience in a similar 34 scheme. Elephant OLB in our scheme, and can play with his hand in the dirt as a 43 DE. Wont be a superstar, but will be an upgrade over what we have now and a solid player for years to come.
Shea McClellin - Played OLB, ILB, DE in college. Would be a weak side 34 OLB in our scheme. Energetic, good balance, versatile, can get to the QB. If he's there at #31 and all the other top pass rushers are gone, I would like McClellin as our pick. Seems safer than Mercilus or Vinny Curry.
