When I watch him in last seasons final two hames against some of the better OLine he will face in his college career ...I think " The NFL scouts are probably all in on big Dexter . "

I'm confused.

Dexter is #9 with 63 tackles and seven sacks

Rashan Gary is #6 with 27 tackles—five for loss—along with half a sack

SI doesn't do maff very good.

We will see. Michigan started like 30 seniors on defense


Jul 6, 2017, 9:59 PM

last year so Gary didn't get a ton of snaps, but he looked like an absolute freak of an athlete in camps leading up to signing day in 2017. I wouldn't be surprised if he lives up to the hype, but it really is mostly just hype at the moment. Big Dex is more of a sure thing and i wouldn't trade him for Gary at this point.

I was about to post the same thing . . . what a crock!

Big Dex had a much better season that Gary. This love affair between Michigan and the sports media is sickening.

He is by far the most disruptive on that list


Jul 6, 2017, 10:10 PM

I'm sorry, but a DT that can disrupt run and pass plays like Dex can is always more valuable than a DB or a LB. You win in the trenches. So the only ones on that list that compare are Oliver and Gary. Gary was a non factor last year and barely played on an over rated team that played an easy schedule. Oliver plays on a team outside of the power 5 and therefore doesn't play top competition. However, he also was always double teamed and still made plays even against the power 5 teams. He is very good and he and Dex should be 1 and 2.

I wouldn't trade Dexter for a single other defensive player in the country. Period.

No offense, but how he made it on that list over Christian

Wilkins is beyond me.

It really is dumb that Wilkins isn't in there too. He and Dex are both high draft pick freak of nature players.

Just goes to show that Gary made a bad choice. He would have started for the national champs and been part of the best DL in the country his last 2 seasons at Clemson. Instead he's stuck at Michigan which is set up for a monumental let down season after they couldn't win much with tons of NFL talent and an easy schedule last year.
