Yeah but there are going to be 3 guys taken on the O-line in the top ten. And, a team with a smash running attack will grind down a team with a speed D-line. 275 lbs doesn’t hold up against 310 lbs plus for 30 plus running plays.

It always depends on the match ups, execution and coaching plan from week to week.

Oh...no argument there. I was only making the point that speed rushers have increased significantly in value this year.

A 310 pound OT who can do the 40 in 4.6 will always be sought after...Jake Long is still the top guy in this draft. And, me being a Wolverine, could not make me happier. We should have 2 or even three in the first round (Manningham being the second guy in the round).
