so it seems it'll be Taco at #9 or someone else...?
we know they really would like a DE in rd #1...but BPA is always taken into consideration...
tough call....is Taco worth it..?  

Personally, I don't think so.

Would they really pass on:

Foster (even in light of Kevin Minter)?
Reddick?
Ross, Davis, or Williams, or Howard?
Jamal Adams?
Hooker, if he's there? 

I know Taco fits the physical model. But he's a very raw talent to take at 9. 

Check Voch Lombardi's report on him.

Voch observes that Taco is 

a.) slow to get off blocks, 
b.) dances around too much, and 
c.) doesn't use his size enough to his advantage. 

These are all coachable things, but I just think there's a chance he slides to the second round. He'd be a better pick at 41 than at 9. That's all I'm saying.
