Our defensive needs a leader.
A face of the franchise on defense
Stat can be that guy for the next 10 years!
Mcfadden or Pryor can be the face on offensive in the future but Star can be the the man on defense
Per Wiki
High school career
A native of Tonga, Lotulelei attended Bingham High School in South Jordan, Utah. Playing defensive lineman at 240 pounds, he helped the team win a state title in 2006.
Regarded as a three-star recruit by Rivals.com, Loluletei was listed as the No. 3 overall prospect from Utah.[3] However, he was overshadowed by Oregon-bound Simi Fili, who was labeled the best defensive lineman from Utah since Haloti Ngata, but eventually bounced around between junior colleges before falling into obscurity.[4]
[edit]College career
Lotulelei originally signed with Brigham Young University, but did not qualify academically, and spent what would have been his freshman season delivering furniture for a store in Salt Lake City.[4] Eventually, he enrolled at Snow College in Ephraim, Utah.[5]
In 2010, he arrived at the University of Utah, making the starting lineup for the Utes' final three games of the season. A regular starter in 2011, Loluletei was a All-Conference performer.
Lotulelei had a heralded performances against highly rated USC Trojans center Khaled Holmes.[6]
[edit]Professional career
[edit]2013 NFL Draft
Forgoing the chance of a professional career in 2012, Lotulelei decided to return to Utah after the 2011 season. In preseason mock drafts from May 2012, Lotulelei was listed as a late first-rounder for the 2013 NFL Draft as well.[7] By mid-season, he had moved up to a top-3 spot.[8] |

we need a stud NT!
get a stud NT all of sudden McClain looks like a star. get an edge rusher in 2014. I like Werner too, but Star has more star power.
I would like to see use go to a 3-4
Houston
Star
Bryant make a great 3-4 line |

Raiders can't miss on their 1st pick. They have so many needs
I hope they can trade down a few spots and draft Warmack. I don't have any doubts about his game.
I do like star he is my 2nd rated player. Warmack being one. Werner being three |

he's a NT
I think he can be the next NGATA
we should model our defense after the Ravens..
Get a NT then proceed to get a Suggs and hopefully so how McClain can flash some talent inside in a 3-4 |

I'd be happy if he ended up in the Silver and Black but I'd prefer for us to move back and take Sheldon Richardson. _________________

Need a trade down if were picking in the top 5.
We have too many needs and this is a pretty weak class of prospects. Best case is to swing a trade with a team who thinks Barkley is a franchise QB. |

I'm sold on Louis Nix III at NT. Is it confirmed he's coming out? _________________

He's a far superior prospect then Teo. I read that he's leaning towards staying in school, but I have my doubts as hed be a top 20 pick at worst. _________________
