IMO i would rather have CL over MA

Because Lawson seems to be more of a need right now than Adams. Aside from the LSU game, we lacked a true pass rusher this whole season. Vic was our only pash rusher but wasnt consistent enough. With Grady Jarret and Josh Watson having a pretty good year at DT, i dont see MA coming in and starting right away. If anything Reader will start next season, he had a monster year as a true freshman. Goodman is leaving, so Carl has a chance to start over Vic or the other Lawson. Just my opinion.

DT, if I'm not mistaken, they have to be the hardest position to find great players for.

I'm a firm believer that you need the big boys in the middle if you want to win. I'd say we've got slightly more talent on the outside right now. Getting an elite interior lineman would be enormous.
In my opinion, that's what we need if we're going to start beating Carolina again. We need to be able to play physical football inside.
Carolina, and the SEC style of play, aren't going anywhere.

To clarify, obviously I would LOVE to get either one of these guys...but right now I just think Adams is more of a need.
####, I really do like Lawson a lot though.
They seem to be very similar guys in that they're both quiet, don't like to bring on a bunch of attention to themselves...hopefully they were talking quietly amongst themselves this weekened and decided this is the place to be.

I see what your saying

but maybe if we had a legit pash rusher we could of got to thompson a couple of more times in that game. I thought we played pretty well in the trenches against SC. We contained there rushing attack for the most part the whole night.

Remember, Corey Crawford and Vic Beasley are only going into their 3rd year. Crawford was a big recruit coming out of school.

Goodman was SDE, Carl is listed as WDE

Past that, no need to even compare Carl and Mon.
One word comes to mind, depth.

DTs like Adams are very rare...like a few every 5-10 yrs

Just a harder position to get an elite prospect like Adams form.
Part of me agrees with you as far as us needing C. Lawson more, b/c of his pass rushing ability (he shoots out of a cannon when the ball snaps).
Lets play it safe and sign both

No, no, no. Pressure up the middle disrupts even Tom Brady.

A premier DT is hard to come by.
