Mr. Wit The $h!t
I wanted to raise the topic about if they can be effective. With the draft looming and our need to stay strong on the d line I've become really interested in this topic.
Two players I have in mind when I ask this Dominique Easley [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HMhd__Dkoh0]Dominique Easley (DT Florida) vs Tennessee 2013 - YouTube[/ame]
[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yCDlbWHqjFA]Dominique Easley vs Louisville 2013 Sugar Bowl - YouTube[/ame]
(who has an acl tear right now)
and my favorite d lineman Aaron Donald [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C25r8eN44yA]Did You See That? | Aaron Donald vs Georgia Tech | PittLiveWire - YouTube[/ame]

I'm not sure if Donald would be there for us in the 2nd, how much of a mistake do any of you think it would be to spend our late 1st on him? He's going to shoot up draft boards during the draft process and will be a border 1/2 based on size (6'0 290).
To me, he could add weight and dominate at nose, plus move to the 3 tech when we run 4 man fronts.
What are some reasons people think/say that an undersized d lineman can't be effective, especially when they put up a monster tape?
I'm curious
