Carlton Powell, DT, Drafted by the Denver Broncos in 5th

A 6’3″ 300 pounder out of Virginia Tech, Carlton is a run-stopper who was projected for late 4th round; so at the middle of the 5th round, we may have gotten great value here. He needs to work on his technique and he is a mediocre, at best, pass-rusher so he is the sort who is likely to play situationally in run situations, but given his excellent run-stopping capability, he seems likely to compete for a spot in the rotation right away, especially if he can contribute on special teams.

I very much like this pick. Read more about Powell
