Who's your Tyson Alualu?

Tyson Alualu was a DT that the Jaguars selected #10 overall in the 2010 draft. The pick was controversial because Alualu was mocked just about universally to be a second rounder. So it goes without saying that when the Jaguars selected him at #10 in the first round, just about everybody had one of two reactions: 1) Who?; or 2) WTF... Alualu?

But we all have our guys, don't we? We all have a guy we like, that we would take in the first round if we could, even if nobody else in the world would. It doesn't have to make sense. It doesn't have to be rational. You just know that this guy in this system is gonna be superfantastic.

So who's your guy? Who's the guy that you would take at 16, even though nobody else thinks he's a first rounder? Who's the guy you kinda wanna take at 16, even though everybody else is absolutely positively positive that he has no business being taken anywhere in the vicinity? Eff conventional wisdom. Eff (nasally) "trading down for value." Eff everybody and their momma. Who's your guy? Who's your Tyson Alualu?
