The NFLNetworks Mike Mayoc, who I regard as a real authority on evaluating football talent, has stated that Paul Kruger "holds the edge" (is solid against running plays) but lacks a real burst as a pass-rusher. That's good enough for me to mark this guy off of our list of possible solutions to help our deficiency of putting pressure on QBs.
The last thing we need is to expend a first-day pick on a player who will be just another guy when it comes to pass-rushing. I say spend a top pick, even a first rounder, on a real speed guy off of the edge who can really press QBs even if he's just on the field in passing situations.
