Jerry Hughes a possibility at #9?

BTW Graham abused Buffalo fan favorite Bob Bulagalagalaga a few times this last year.

Iowa would have played Michigan just once this year...I'm pretty sure.

 

Also, (and by now everyone should know I'm a big Graham supporter) Bulaga was coming off a viral infection affecting his thyroid which caused him to miss three games and lose 10 pounds. So he was not at his best for the game against Michigan.

 

So this is not really a fair statement about Bulaga, whatever anyone thinks of him.

I didn't mean a few times as in games, I meant as in a few times during the game.

Sorry. Thought you meant games.

 

Not to get too caught up in stats, but as I said, Hughes played in the Mountain West Conference. He had ten sacks (11 per some sources) last year. Five of those sacks came in two games...he had three sacks against (drum roll please) Texas State. He had two sacks against Colorado State.

 

In their bowl game against Boise State, he had no sacks.

 

As I said above, DeMarcus Ware is proof that a small school, small conference guy can be an elite pass rusher.

 

But in Hughes' entire 4-year career at TCU, he had 28 sacks, 2 forced fumbles, 3 ints, and 1 pass defensed.

 

I think there's too much risk taking this guy very high. Certainly not at #9, IMO.
