Defensive Tackles Available in 2009 draft

Some of the top DT's
(not necessarily in the top order)
http://football.about.com/cs/positionalran...draftdtrank.htm
1. Terrance Cody, Alabama
2. Sen'Derrick Marks*, Auburn
3. Peria Jerry, Ole Miss
4. Geno Atkins*, Georgia
5. B.J. Raji, Boston College
6. DeMarcus Granger, Oklahoma
7. Evander Hood, Missouri
8. Fili Moala, USC
9. Terrance Taylor, Michigan

Cody, Atkins, and Granger are staying in school.
Jerry & Marks are good prospects (especially Jerry), but neither's a good fit for the 3-4.
Working on the fly, here's what an updated list would look like:
3-4 DE
- Tyson Jackson, LSU
- Fili Moala, USC
- Alex Magee, Purdue
- Dorrell Scott, Clemson
- Jarron Gilbert, San Jose State
- B.J. Raji, Boston College
- Ron Brace, Boston College (would have been a DE in Romeo's fat guy 3-4)
- Terrance Taylor, Michigan (questionable scheme fit)

I was kinda intimating this in another thread, but to me it seems there aren't any 3-4 DE (our gaping hole) worth a high 1st round pick.

B.J. Raji may be a top 15 guy, but he's more of an NT (Mayock compares him to NE's Vince Wilfork).
If we didn't have Shaun Rogers, he'd probably be one of my top 5 guys.

We already have mega bucks tied up in our defensive line and have 4 solid players. BTW, I count S.Smith gone, but we really missed Robaire Smith this year. The only way I look at Dline early is if they get rid of Cory Williams for draft picks. I think the light bulb has gone on and theyrealize that they need LBs, bucsue LBs make or Break the 3-4.
I think drafting a defensive lineman on the second day to develop would be a solid idea. MY belief is that rounds 4 - 7 should be taking the best player available. Those are really crap shoot picks. Good rounds to find developmental guys for O-Line, D-Line and DBs.

One of my favorite mock drafts has the Browns taking Donald Brown with the #37 pick. I really don't know much about this kid.
Good size and speed and but I never watched him closely.

Cody did not declare for the draft
Cody did not declare for the draft
Which is shocking to me.
I wonder if his family is finacially well off?
