Thoughts on Keeanu Benton?

[CJD]

extend DJ after this season, but now, if this is the case, I would be fine with Benton at 28 if he is THAT versatile. Definitely something
we need to think about with this being DJ's last season under contract. Love Mazi Smith as a DJ replacement, but like he says, he isn't
THAT good of a pass rusher.

Kancey's short arms and the fact he cannot play on run downs takes him out of my thoughts in the first.

I think I am leaning more Corner as we lead up to the Draft at 28 and Forbes will be the pick and I would be happy with it. Darnell
Washington might fall to 60 for all we know because he wasn't a pass catcher much at Georgia even if he was behind the best. If this
happens I would like DW in the 2nd and look for a DT in the 3rd or a RB. Surprised he has Pickens ranked that low, I like that guy.

If you watch his section on Pickens, he loves him as an interior pass rusher, HATES him as a run stopper. Basically, he said Pickens will be a 3rd down DT until he learns to hold up against the run. He says if all you're looking for is that extra juice on obvious passing downs, Pickens is a great selection on day 3.
