2017 NFL Mock Draft: Wild Trade Throws Top 10 Out of Whack

The lifeblood of a 4-3 defense is their front seven, but especially the defensive line. The Miami Dolphins learned this the hard way when their front four were effectively manhandled against the Pittsburgh Steelers in the playoffs. Outside of Ndamukong Suh they got little consistent pressure from anybody. Throw in the fact Cameron Wake is into his mid-30s and Mario Williams may be cut, they need a dose of youth in that group. <p>Caleb Brantley hasn’t gotten a ton of attention lately but the Florida defensive tackle will soon enough. He was an explosive interior presence for the Gators, excellent at knifing into the backfield to blow up running plays. All the potential pieces are in place for him to become a standout interior pass rusher. Putting him next to Suh in the middle would then make life difficult for pocket passing QBs. Like Tom Brady.</p>. DT. Florida. Caleb Brantley . 22. player. 59
