Consensus Top 9?
#7

I'm starting to lean away from a pass rusher at #9 because I don't think Barnett is the safe pick that everyone thinks he is.  The lack of explosiveness is very concerning, although he is outstanding with his hands.

Adams is a much safer pick than Foster, imo.  Foster is athletic, but his bad instincts show up on tape and his DL kept him clean to make up for it with his athletic ability.  

I'm not against a pass rusher at 9, but there's a significant dropoff after Garrett, Allen, and Thomas.  I don't see how anybody can say Barnett is a safe pick.  The guy doesn't have the physical tools to be a top shelf pass rusher in the NFL, and only has one move.  He could easily be a complete bust, and best case, a 7-9 sack guy.  Charlton is a safer pick for a 4-3.  If your looking for a boom/bust guy, McDowell has a much higher ceiling than Barnett, but a lower floor.  If the top three are gone, I think we should look at a different position and get a ***** rusher in 2 or 3.
