"There are 10 to 12 interior defensive linemen who could have first-round gradesfrom some teams," Mayock said. "It is by far the best year for interior defensive linemen in my memory."

 

With the possibility of Losing Wilkerson now to trade or Next year, Losing Snacks AND Losing Sheldon to suspension/drugs/Driving 150 mph this might be a great draft to restock in round 2 and 3. Which guys you like in the second/Third rounds?

Neat order of the draft grades.

9.00-10: Once in a lifetime player

8.00-9.00: Perennial All-Pro

7.99-7.50: Future All-Pro

7.00-7.49: Pro Bowl to All-Pro Ability

6.50-6.99: Good NFL Starter with Pro Bowl Potential

6.00-6.49: Chance to be a good NFL starter

5.70-5.99: Could be an early NFL starter

 

16 of the top 40 players (ranked 6.00 or higher) are D-lineman, but outside of Buckner, Bosa, and Robinson, they are all rated 6.4 or lower.  So yes, there is a great DEPTH of D-lineman, but the quality of that depth isn't overwhelming by these draft grades.

Tunsil, Laremy 7.7

Jack, Myles 7.5

Buckner, DeForest 7.3

Elliot, Ezekiel 7.2

Smith, Jaylon 7.1

Ramsey, Jalen 6.8

Bosa, Joey 6.7

Hargraves, Vernon 6.7

Stanley, Ronnie 6.7
