NFL Network guys mentioned him as a potential top 10 pick.
He'll be gone then before we pick.

I've read several articles that have highlighted that Hampton would not be as valuable in our current defense,
because we only use a true NT on 40% of snaps. Teams don't run as much anymore.
Teams are more pass-happy, but they also use a lot more 3 WR formations. That forces the defense to add a 3rd CB at the expense of the NT.
Count me as one of the guys who thinks it would be insane to draft a pure NT in round 1. That's also in part because I think Steve McLendon is more than adequate at NT.
Tuitt, Heyward , McClendon , McCullers...sure doesnt have the same ring as Greenwood , White , Greene ,Holmes..
There's not an elite pass rusher there either, Heyward wouldn't do as well vs athletic tackles as he does with Guards, he's not fast enough to beat them with a speed rush, he could bull rush them, but that would be his only move and they'd pick up on that quickly, same with Tuitt, of course there is no elite pass rushers in our 3-4 either. so no matter which defense we run, we need pass rushers.Tuitt, Heyward , McClendon , McCullers...sure doesnt have the same ring as Greenwood , White , Greene ,Holmes..
If we go 4-3 where does Jarvis go? .
hahaha, nice!Somewhere else...anywhere else..
