You mention Grady Jarrett, but I've never considered him a NT either.
I've always looked at him more in the BJ Hill role.
It's why I'm worried about the run stopping ability of Hill+Rankins. Both are sub-315.
I want to see a big guy lined up next to Hill/Rankins.
So that's why I'm wanting Sweat or Jackson.
I think they are more traditional run-stopping, gap-eating types.
Makes sense from history, but not from watching Byron Murphy on the field. He plays much bigger than his weight from what I see and made
Sweat look better than he actually was. Murphy was the brute that freed up others to make plays and even while being doubled was able to
make plays stopping the run. Size isn't everything for NT unlike back in the day, strength means much more and Byron Murphy is insanely strong.
I only take Sweat if it is mid to late rounds and we haven't taken a NT yet after his dumbass actions.
Might not even see an NFL field how dumb this guy is.
