Like corner, this draft class appears to have good value in the late 1st for DTs. And the thing I've noticed that is unusual about this class is how many BIG guys there are this year, with 5 of the top 8 on one board all weighing in over 320 lbs. That is rare.

Barron, Harmon, and Johnson on the board at 24 I think I take Barron but man, long term I think Harmon fills a bigger long term need.

100%

Barron would fill an immediate need more than Harmon. I think Allen has more tread left than Hargrave.

Hurry-up Vikings, we ain't getting any younger!

I believe Harmon is a decade type player. Not sure about being generational, but he would be simply amazing to draft. I would take him over Barron, if they feel they could get a quality CB in Burke, Strong, Williams. I feel we could get a good starter out of them. I am higher on Burke and Strong than most are I feel.

Barron would probably end the PTSD we all feel when drafting a CB.

Agree on both counts. I think Barron would start for us day one. Harmon would be rotational at best his first season. Barron can play outside, inside and even safety. His versatility is ideal for Flores. But I think these mocks where he goes in the 20s are wrong. I think he goes top 15. If he's there at 24, I sprint to the podium, and wait to take a DT later in the draft or even next year.

I agree, i just cant see him at 24. A pipe dream. 

Lots of mocks have him going much higher -- to 49'ers. Harmon I am seeing more and more going b4 24 too (STEELERS). 

S or RB may be the best value at 24 when we're up - or a trade back. I know Sticky's dreaming of Booker there, but i'm not sure even he drops to 24!

You know how every year there’s a big name guy who goes undrafted? This guy and Burke are my choices this year. Did he have a piano on his back when he ran?

I think West is a nose. And I'd rather have him in the 4th than Grant in the 1st.

I want Peguse. Mfer had SEVEN rushing TDs. Crazy balance and quickness.

I think he's a nose as well, but you can find guys like this all over the place. Situational player. I'd rather take a similar type in round 6 or 7....even UDFA.

LOVE Pegues as a 5th round nose. Guy was a tight end his freshman season at Aubrurn. That's how athletic he is. Put him at FB in front of Mason behind Kelly and Fries, red zone problems over.
