With Godin, Wormley, and Strobel having the ability to play 3-tech DT, I think NT was a bigger need.Thunderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09708792562446136381noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2440694009017367434.post-42996378627399593942011-08-10T23:58:56.603-04:002011-08-10T23:58:56.603-04:00Magnus, with the recent news about Schutt, I'm...Magnus, with the recent news about Schutt, I'm curious to know where you would have ranked him with Pipkins and O'brien.<br /><br />Thanks in advance.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2440694009017367434.post-61400717195562815992011-08-10T18:46:16.629-04:002011-08-10T18:46:16.629-04:00@ Michael 12:04 a.m.

The list consists of...<br /><br />...nobody. Alan Branch was close a few years ago, but even the good ones in the past 20 years (Will Carr, Renes, Taylor, Watson, etc.) have been 4th rounders or lower.<br /><br />Meanwhile, although he'll probably move up, the scouting services have anywhere from 11 to 44 defensive tackles ranked ahead of Pipkins. I don't think it's a stretch to say he doesn't grade out as a probable future 1st rounder, although I'm not saying it's completely impossible.Thunderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09708792562446136381noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2440694009017367434.post-70288999755909284402011-08-10T18:37:23.490-04:002011-08-10T18:37:23.490-04:00@ Paul 4:40 p.m.

I wouldn't mind adding O'Brien to the class, though, because I still think Michigan needs another DT in this class.Thunderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09708792562446136381noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2440694009017367434.post-11224104564133265652011-08-10T18:36:11.861-04:002011-08-10T18:36:11.861-04:00@ BISB 3:32 p.m.

I try to base ratings more on film and less on combine numbers, so there's really nothing to change over the summer if I've already seen their junior year film.Thunderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09708792562446136381noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2440694009017367434.post-2467718898780741532011-08-10T00:04:36.442-04:002011-08-10T00:04:36.442-04:00He'll end up being the best player of the '...He'll end up being the best player of the '12 class.Michaelnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2440694009017367434.post-39361820383099200862011-08-09T21:44:50.184-04:002011-08-09T21:44:50.184-04:00@ Anonymous 7:10 PM

For example, if Ben Braden comes out and has a monster year and looks like a world-beater, or if Kyle Kalis's arm falls off, are you gonna adjust their rankings or let them stand as-is?BISBnoreply@blogger.com
