And when you're going against the team with the fewest sacks in the NFL you don't care what the interior of that line looks like, because you have all day to throw the ball.
We were #23 against the pass, #27 against the run.
Carter and Daniels will get you some sacks, but Griffin and Salave'a won't stop anybody.
You have to stop the run first. Draft Branch.

why does drafting a good defensive tackle seem to mean that they are great against stopping the run to everyone here?

cause branch is 350 and pretty good vs the run, and that's really the only guy being looked at at DT.

branch at times has been able to cause pressure at Michigan. Bringing him here would sure up the run d and take the double teams off of Griffin and Carter. He would be o the overall best pick for us. I am probrally the only one who thinks we should draft him and then give up next years pick to get back in the 1st to get Paul Poluszny later in the draft. Have Paul play MLB, I would also try to pick up Lamarr woodley, Eric Weedle safety of utah.
