CBSSports.com released its first
NFL Draft Big Board and it has Clemson senior defensive end
Vic Beasley
Vic Beasley (via CBSSports.com) With pressure on the quarterback priority No. 1 on defense, teams are more willing than ever to trade size for speed at this position. Like recent "undersized" first-round rushers Von Miller, Bruce Irvin, Barkevious Mingo and Dee Ford, Beasley boasts a lightning-quick first-step and the agility to stalk mobile quarterbacks. However, both of their draft analysts have Beasley slipping one spot and landing at Atlanta Falcons at the #7 pick. Beasley has 18.5 tackles for loss and a team-high 11 sacks on the season. He holds the Clemson career record for most sacks with 32 and is the current active FBS leader and also has an impressive 49.5 career tackles for loss. He has been already named to four All-American teams after staying for his senior season at Clemson. One additional draft note - ESPN's Todd McShay had Beasley going #8 overall in his first 2015 NFL mock draft earlier in the week.
