He does fit the "mold" of bigger Defensive Ends but that hasn't paid off with Clark and Hunt so I wouldn't mind switching it up at Defensive End if a guy like Solomon Thomas is available and we go pass rusher in the first. Also, a trade down and still landing Charlton or McDowell would make a lot of sense this year if it wasn't for the fact we already have too many draft selections. Maybe we trade down some to then add more ammo for another trade up to the end of the first and have two first round selections. I like the picks of McMillan and Schuster quite a bit. They would both be good value selections at positions of need. Well done mock overall.
I think the difference between Hunt/Clarke and Charlton, is Charlton is a natural athlete that can bend and turn the corner. Hunt and Clarke are just big and strong and their best move (only move?) is a bull rush. Personally I'd take a Thomas over Charlton, but I don't think the Bengals would. Also, Charlton was a 5 star recruit coming out of high school and Clarke was just a 3 and Hunt wasn't rated for obvious reasons. I think the ceiling for Charlton is just way higher than Hunt or Clarke.
