Yep, as always UGA is stacked on D. They also have arguably the best Safety (Starks) in the draft.

UND:
Rolling w/ the original 3:
WATTS/S
CROSS/DT
EVANS/TE

UGA:
JALON WALKER/LB: We ask a lot of our LBs and Walker can do it all. Has the size and skillset of Micah Parsons

TATE RATLEGE/OG: Would you use a mid-1st RD pick on a dude who has pro-Bowl potential and will be your starting RG for the next decade?

SMAEL MOLDEN/LB: A different LB than Walker, Molden is a typical off-ball LB, will Walker offers more playing on LOS.

I'd certainly add Malaki Starks (S) and M. Williams(DE) on Georgia's D. And both Fairchild (LG) and Wilson © on their OL. 

No way would I take Ratledge Rd1. I like Fairchild slightly better. For me  those guys are Rd3-4. Wilson Rd4-5. Watts is a Rd3. 

Starks and Walker, I an RUNNING to the podium in Round 1 if either guy is there. But I doubt either will. Though I worry vanilla Lou wouldn't utilize either guy properly. 

Williams is a high ceiling but lower floor guy. I like Scourton better in Rd1, but his ceiling is lower.

Is there any argument on Starks as the best safety?

Delp at TE in the later rounds.

Jalon Walker is really good but he would replace Germaine Pratt at stack OLB and Joker.

Notre Dame up by 10 at half. ND defense without 2 starters including possible 1st round CB Morrison.

Walker looks very good pass rushing from both left and right side. Watts has shown he can tackle in space.

As a ND fan, I know Georgia is a beast of a team and will not quit. Great talent and maybe best coach in college football Kirby Smart.

Ratledge is a 2nd rounder currently don't really see him dropping and Fairchild is a borderline 4th rounder. I think Watts is way to good to last long.

The Ole Miss entire DL is playing vs Duke. Umanmielen, Nolen, Ivey, and Pegues.

To Watts? No chance.

How did Nolen look?

I think that JJ Pegues looks like a player that would fit in really well in the AFCN. With Nolen getting all of the primary attention, I hadn't really taken much notice of Pegues until last night.

He only played about a quarter and a half. They were running stunts upfront to confuse the Duke OL so he spend alot of time looping to the outside similar to his game against Georgia.

bfine did not say Watts would be drafted higher. He said Watts outplayed Starks last night. As I said earlier, Watts is a very good college safety who is fast and a sure tackler (he showed it last night with several one-on-one solo tackles.

Starks will be drafted higher. But the funny thing about the draft, guys drafted later end up being better pros. How many QB's went in front of Mahomes for example?

We may get Watts against Tyler Warren next week. ND may use a CB mostly on Warren, but I could also see Watts covering him at times.
