| Pos. | Rank | Player | School | Ht. | Wt. | 40 |
| DT | 1 | Ndamukong Suh | Nebraska | 6-3 | 307 | 5.02 |
| Notes: Andy Hart] Athlete who closes in both run and pass, but sometimes doesn’t finish. Powerful and quick. Great motor. Has a litle nasty to him. [Erik Scalavino] Relentless getting after the QB or ball carrier; tough to block 1-on-1; very athletic for his build; knack for blocking kicks, too. | ||||||
| **DT** | **2** | **[Gerald McCoy | Oklahoma | 6-4 | 295 | 5.04 |
| Notes: Andy Hart] Quick. Makes plays. Moves laterally very well. More one-gap than Suh. 40 starts. Great attitude. Uses hands well in pass rush. Solid tackler. [Erik Scalavino] Nearly identical skill set to Suh. | ||||||
| **DT** | **3** | **[Dan Williams | Tennessee | 6-2 | 327 | 5.19 |
| Notes: Andy Hart] Strong. Good burst. NT type. Moves well, athletic for size. Active. Two-gap potential/experience? [Erik Scalavino] Noticeably slower, heavier than the top two, but still makes plays; moves well for his size. | ||||||
| **DT** | **4** | **Jared Odrick** | **Penn State** | **6-5** | **304** | **5.03** |
| Notes: [Andy Hart] No Comments Posted . [Erik Scalavino] No Comments Posted | ||||||
| **DT** | **5** | **[Brian Price | UCLA | 6-1 | 303 | 5.08 |

| **Pos.** | **Rank** | **Player** | **School** | **Ht.** | **Wt.** | **40** |
| **DT** | **[Terrence Cody | Alabama | 6-4 | 349 | 5.71 | |
| Notes: Andy Hart] NT. Two-down player. Fat. Can hold and beat double teams. Pops up at snap at times and plays too high. [Erik Scalavino] Just a big, slow blob with no moves. | ||||||
| **DT** | **[Lamarr Houston | Texas | 6-3 | 305 | 4.84 | |
| Notes: Andy Hart] 3-4 end potential. Good motor, strenght buy can be held in check at LOS at times. [Erik Scalavino] Limited footage, but seems like he has potential. | ||||||
| **DT** | **[Arthur Jones | Syracuse | 6-3 | 295 | 5.04 | |
| Notes: Andy Hart] Injuries. Undersized nose tackle? Made a lot of plays. Two-gap?. [Erik Scalavino] Reminds me of Jarvis Green; seems solid; nothing spectacular, but could develop in time. | ||||||
| **DT** | **[Torell Troup | Central Florida | 6-3 | 314 | 5.12 | |
| Notes: Andy Hart] NT, 3 year starter and captain. Dropped 30 lbs as senior. Reads plays well. Plays high vs. double teams. Versatile potential. [Erik Scalavino] . Best suited as a 3-4 nose, perhaps; not a large arsenal of moves; could be a project. | ||||||
| **DT** | **[Al Woods | LSU | 6-4 | 312 | ||
| Notes: Andy Hart] Once a highly touted prospect. Big, athletic man who eats up blockers and can make plays. Little high at times. Production doesn't equal potential Good versatility.. [Erik Scalavino] Moves well side-to-side and can get into the backfield; great potential as a 3-4 end; would be a developmental player, but definitely worth taking in mid to late rounds. | ||||||
| **DT** | **[Tyson Alualu | California | 6-3 | 295 | 4.87 | |
| Notes: Andy Hart] Good athlete. 38 starts. Lean build. OK quickness. 4-3 guy. [Erik Scalavino] . Speedy, relentless player; athletic, probably better suited as a 4-3 end or 3-4 OLB.. | ||||||

| **DT** | **Cam Thomas** | **North Carolina** | **6-4** | **331** | **5.18** | |
| Notes: [Andy Hart] No footage but scouting report is as a two-gap, nose tackle run stuffer. [Erik Scalavino] No Comments. | ||||||
| **DT** | **[Geno Atkins | Georgia | 6-1 | 293 | 4.75 | |
| Notes: Andy Hart] Inconsistent. Quick, fast and strong. Undersized and explosive. 4-3 guy. Makes a lot of plays when at his best. [Erik Scalavino] . Pretty quick shooting through the gaps; could have some versatility along the line as well, though he'd need to add weight. | ||||||

| **DT** | **Cory Peters** | **Kentucky** | **6-3** | **300** | **4.98** | |
| Notes: [Andy Hart] 4 year starter. Inconsistent. Can be doubled. DE? Two-gap?. [Erik Scalavino] . Not as quick as others his size, but could be a late-round project. | ||||||
| **DT** | **Jeff Owens** | **Georgia** | **6-1** | **304** | **4.97** | |
| Notes: [Andy Hart] Strong, 44 reps. Not quick. NT project?. [Erik Scalavino] . Does everything OK, nothing great. | ||||||
| **DT** | **Malcolm Sheppard** | **Arkansas** | **6-2** | **285** | **5.11** | |
| Notes: [Andy Hart] Makes plays only when unblocked. Decent effort and motor. Looks like big LB. [Erik Scalavino] . Athletic; seems quick, too; can shoot the gap; a nice sleeper pick. | ||||||
| **Pos.** | **Rank** | **Player** | **School** | **Ht.** | **Wt.** | **40** |
| **DE** | **1** | **[Derrick Morgan | Georgia Tech | 6-3 | 266 | 4.77 |
| Notes: Andy Hart] True 4-3 end. Good motor. Doesn't always close well. Not elite in my mind. [Erik Scalavino] Tough to handle 1-on1; speedy; stout vs. run and pass. | ||||||
| **DE** | **2** | **[Carlos Dunlap | Florida | 6-6 | 277 | 4.68 |
| Notes: Andy Hart] Physically compares to Peppers or Williams. Elite measurables. Closes and finishes. . [Erik Scalavino] Uses speed and power to rush the QB; can pursue down the line as well; great talent, but an off-field headache; if not for the latter, he'd be the ideal pick at this position. | ||||||
| **DE** | **3** | **[Jason Pierre-Paul | South Florida | 6-5 | 270 | 4.71 |
| Notes: Andy Hart] Limited experience. Raw. Pretty explosive and closes well. Good motor. [Erik Scalavino] Very raw talent; still has a lot to learn, despite showing great athleticism and instincts; probably overrated heading into the draft. | ||||||
| **DE** | **4** | **[Everson Griffen | USC | 6-4 | 273 | 4.65 |
| Notes: Andy Hart] Inconsistent. Good but not elite pass rush. Not as good a FB player as his measurements. Huge upside that he'll likely never get to. [Erik Scalavino] Gets a lot of "easy" sacks/tackles after others have done the work; not overly impressive highlights. | ||||||

| Notes: Andy Hart] Pretty quick and fast, but doesn't always close well. Not a big hitter. Decent power. Position?. [Erik Scalavino] . Good speed/power combo; can drop into pass coverage far downfield, too; maybe better suited as a 3-4 OLB. | ||||||

| Notes: Andy Hart] Lot of injuries. Made plays when healthy. High upside. Doesn't play strong. [Erik Scalavino] . Very quick, athletic moves to rush the passer; an impressive mid-round talent. | ||||||

| Notes: Andy Hart] Looks part as OLB. Decent athlete with good power and tenacity. Late OLB option?. [Erik Scalavino] . Decent power moves for a lighter guy; another potential OLB prospect. | ||||||

| DE | Clifton Geathers | South Carolina | 6-7 | 281 | ||
| Notes: [Andy Hart] No Comments. [Erik Scalavino] . Intriguing size; decent athleticism; a bit raw, but could be worth the time/effort to develop. | ||||||
