Alualu now the only player left on the roster from the 2007-2010 drafts
|
Quote:I believe he was drafted to be a penetrating DT, not a run stuffer. You don't draft run stuffers with number 10 pick. And as someone else mentioned, he would be a disappointment if he was drafted in the 2nd. Sometimes dominant two-gap guys get drafted high but they really need to be physically dominant. Alualu wasn't either. Gene Smith once again thought he was the smartest guy in the room and could project Alualu to do something he didn't do before. If Alualu had been Albert Haynesworth size and physicality I could understand taking him #10, but he was sub 300 lbs and without dominant pass rushing ability. You're right, he would have been disappointing drafted any time before the third round. |
