2010 NFL Draft rankings: Defensive ends

The defensive end rankings were somewhat difficult to knock out, mostly because a number of the players who are ends in college won't be in the NFL.

For instance, Texas' Sergio Kindle has played outside linebacker for the Longhorns but will move to end this season. But in the NFL, he's strictly a linebacker prospect. For now, he's in the end category. The same goes for guys like Jerry Hughes of TCU, Antonio Coleman of Auburn and Eric Norwood of South Carolina.

Like many other position, the best ends seem to be juniors. Carlos Dunlap of Florida is an incredible prospect and Everson Griffen of USC has scary potential. But the best defensive end in college might be Greg Hardy of Mississippi. At least, that is, when he wants to try hard or is not injued.

So, check out the defensive end rankings. Use this post to tear them apart or offer your own. After all the positional rankings are revealed, a top 200 will be put out.

Looks like another good DE/OLB hybrid class.

I don't think my Jags will pick a DE

so i’ll skip this one, thanks for the articles tho, especially the one about DTs.

Selvie

I really like this kid. Sounds like a perfeft 3-4 OLB with a great first step and closing speed.
