I thought Nolen could play a 1 tech? I mean, I know he’s not 330 lbs and I wouldn’t put him in that spot in goal line. Maybe he isn’t a two gap player? He splits a lot double teams. I would think Nolan would be starting next to CJ if we take him.
I’d like to see this revised as a trade up mock.

He's just too damn talented.
I mean no question that's a dream pick because he can A) spell Jones (which CJ needs badly next year) and B) Step in at the 3 tech for Jones when Jones moves out to the edge on pass rush downs.
I mean you could have that guy as a DL 5 who takes reps off Jones, Karlaftis (through Jones moving out) Omenihu (see Jones) and even the Nose if they play in a nascar set with Jones and Nolen inside.
It would be a RIDICULOUSLY good fit. I just don't see us getting that lucky.
He's really really good -- there are too many teams picking in the 20s that would be willing to take the risk. If you want him, I think you're moving up to 24ish. I don't see him getting through the back of that round when he's easily one of the 10-12 best pure talents in the draft.
