Lose Suh-weepstakes? Can't get the real McCoy? We can still name our Price!

This 300 pounder is Sapp like in strength and speed. He is a Tampa Two style defensive Tackle, and may be ours if McCoy or SUH are gone.

What to do if Suh and McCoy aren't there after pick numbers 1 and 2 are gone? Draft a Safety and miss our chance at a defensive tackle? Maybe, but the Bucs arnt just after any ole D Tackle. We know what we need. And there is another option besides the two we have heard about lately.

UCLA's Brian Price.

Price is 300 Pounds and is fast, very fast, off the line. He reportedly excels at launching from the 3 technique and just gets better when the guys he faces  get tougher.

Price has over 20 tackles for a loss including 8 in a three game span this past season, and more than 7 sacks on the year. The best part is he is doing it against double teams. His coach Frank Neuheisel and college scots think he is a sure first round pick, probably the third best Defensive Tackle in the draft behind Suh and McCoy. 

He is a 300 Pounder with an exceptional first step, which is what's needed to be the next Warren Sapp, like Suh or McCoy. Or now Price.
