I think Shaq Lawson will be a 1st rounder. I don't think Carl Lawson or Dan Voltz are coming out this year.

Carl Lawson's father confirmed his son is returning to Auburn.

I love your first two picks big time!!! Although I think it's likely Lawson lasts till the second rnd. But even if we coukd grab Jack if he slides a little. He definitely has cornerstone player kinda potential. Just his all around ability. I was watching a little bit of him and seeing how he lined up on receivers at UCLA and more than held his own. I think he'd help big time in solving our coverage issues over the middle of the Field. Then of course you have his ability to get after the QB. 

 

I like Butler too, Although I just read on NFL.Com that Andrew Billings has indeed decided to come out for the 2016 draft. And he's a guy I really like at DT, He's a monster up front. And although I think we have a number of solid guys on or D line, I would love to get a guy like Billings who is just an absolute pain to handle and will demand a double team every time, also has the ability to collapse the pocket. BUT.... we'd have to take him in the first to have a chance and with our other pressing needs, don't know how I feel about that.
