Dre'Mont Jones. 22. player. 46. . DL. Ohio State Buckeyes

Andrew Luck is looking like an MVP caliber player again, and the Colts weapons are gelling well with the dynamic quarterback. The defense has been up and down so far this season, and the pass rush is dead last in the league with 11 sacks this season.

Dre’mont Jones is a raw prospect, but he could blossom into an excellent player in the mold of Jason Pierre Paul, and get to the quarterback with reckless abandon. With Nick Bosa leaving the team, Jones had to step up and has been one of the key pieces on the defensive line.

After being a dominant force in the Big Ten title game he has 40 tackles with eight and a half sacks, and could end up reaching double digits if you include the Big 10 championship and bowl games.

If Jones is picked before this selection another pass rushing prospect should be on deck.
