There's alot of depth along the defensive line in this draft, I'm hoping we can trade down, get more picks, and still fill needs.

My problem with Branch is simple. He isn't a pressure guy. He is a block eater and run stuffer. Those guys are far easier to find(and cheaper too) than a good or better pass rusher. There are only several big time DTs in the league and really not a one of them is big time for being a run stopper. I am not minimizing what a run stopper does but looking at which position offers more scarcity; pass rushing DE wins by a big margin. The question becomes: Are either Adams or Anderson good enough DEs to be a better value pick than the more surefire Branch? I am not good enough of an evaluator to know.
