Not much I would change in your rankings, I might move Taco and Willis as high as 4 and 5.

Interesting, thanks! I love Tanoh's ability but I don't see him putting it together on an NFL-level. Watkins is intriguing playing alongside Watt, with Clowney & Mercilus rushing the QB

Another guy I would like around the DL12-13 spot would be Chris Wormley, as the replacement for Jernigan.

So you're not a big believer in Jordan Willis?

Not really. I will be shocked if he stays on the line.

I like Conley, but him disappearing against FSU (and my hatred of Michigan) dropped him out of my top ten.

If this is an MFL League, check your position designations. In DT leagues this is important because Solomon and Allen are classified as DTs in MFL leagues. This is a significant advantage as they both will have time at DE in their respective defenses and have more scoring opportunities and 3 down roles.

1. Myles Garrett
2. Solomon Thomas (especially if DT)
-
3. Derek Barnett
4. Charles Harris
5. Jonathan Allen (especially if DT)
-
6. Taco Charlton
7. Takk McKinley
8. Jordan Willis
-
9. Demarcus Walker
10. Daeshon Hall

McKinley is a DE in MFL. Id move him up to 6. He has the best short term scoring potential from 3 down, but Bennet may be the long-term gem. Don't sleep on Daeshon Hall. He is a monster of a man and if he picks up the scheme, look out.

Allen will be reclassified as a DE shortly. No way he's playing nose tackle in Washington. Thomas SHOULD be an end there, but who knows. Maybe they let Armistead or Buckner stay on the edge, a la Campbell in Jax?

1 pt per tackle, 3 pt sack
They certainly shouldn't be DL eligible, but if they are? Top 6 probably

Jon Allen is the one I'm super high on. Dude may not have tested well but definitely plays with a high motor.

Watching any Alabama games or film of other defensive players Allen always pops. Seeing a defensive lineman always at the ball, even 10 yards downfield is impressive.
