DT Prospects and more

 

Sanders_fan89 did a good post about the DT position and the prospects in the next draft.  However, I wouldn't be surprised if Polian does the usual and drafts someone we would have never expected.

What other positions/players could you see Polian taking in the draft?

Alphonso Smith, CB - Wake Forest

Victor Harris, CB - Virginia Tech

Both of the cornerbacks are ideal fits for the Cover-2 scheme.  More scouts are high on Harris (probably due to size) although Smith has much better numbers this year and in this career.  Smith could fall to us in the 2nd but Harris could go late 1st or early 2nd round.

Max Unger, OL - Oregon

Max has played every position on the Oregon offensive line in his career as a Duck.  He also seems to be a very intelligent player.  He's a Mudd type of lineman and if Ugoh/Johnson don't show significant improvement I wouldn't be surprised to see Polian keep rebuilding the depth of this line.  He's a first rounder and could end up top 15 or 20 depending on what underclassmen declare.

Jarett Dillard, WR - Rice

Dillard is not blessed size or an outstanding 40 time.  He has put up some huge numbers and is a very sharp route runner.  He currently leads the nation with 14 TDs and has 5 NCAA receiving records.  He could probably be had in the third round.

 

Personally, I think we miss out on Unger in the first and grab a DT(I like Jerry).  We could then go with Smith in the 2nd and Dillard in the 3rd.

 

Anyone else have any prospects that you believe could be a good fit for the Colts?
