Courtney Upshaw- Upshaw can get after the QB and tackle the back in the backfield and would be able to help Clay Matthews at Linebacker. Dont'a Hightower- Hightower also can get after the QB and is a good tackler along side Upshaw, Ray Lewis isnt getting any younger so Hightower could be his eventual replacment. Dontari Poe- Poe had poor season results with only 22 tackles but is so fast and powerful that he is hard to pass up at this point in the draft. Vinny Curry- The Pats also need to help their 32nd ranked defense from last year and adding one of the best pass rushers in the draft would help, also Vinny can create turnovers and stop the run. Nick Perry- Will be a nice addition to the Giants D-Line, he can rush the QB and make tackles might not start his first season but will be a contribution and backup if he is needed.

When NFL General Mangers, Presidents and Coaches assemble in their respective war rooms, it's as if they're bellying up to the blackjack table at a casino, risking money and future success on draftees. That goes for any player being drafted, but some players are even riskier and can cost franchises dearly. On the other hand, if a team is willing to go "all in" on a risky athlete, it could earn them the jackpot. That's the subject of this week's Rush Segment from NFLDraft365 as Matt Miller, Dylan MacNamara, Evan Adrian and Ryan O'Leary discuss the merits of drafting some of the riskier picks in the year's draft crop. See what they have to say about the likes of Janoris Jenkins, Dontari Poe, Quinton Coples and Alshon Jeffery. NFLDraft365 is a production of Bleacher Report Videos. The show highlights all of the players, news, happenings and opinion surrounding the NFL Draft and is covered year-round for NFL fans, who are serious about their teams.

Dontari Poe is another polarizing figure in this year's draft. He possesses very rare athleticism for a man his size, but did not consistently dominate against the lower level of competition that Memphis faced week in and week out. Poe rocketed up draft boards after turning in a truly impressive performance at the combine, and if a team can improve his consistency and technique, they could turn the raw workout warrior into a real force to be reckoned with. Combine results: 40-yard dash - 4.98 secs Bench press - 44 reps Vertical jump - 29.5" Broad jump - 8'9" 3-cone drill - 7.90 secs 20-yard shuttle - 4.56 secs Scouting report: www.mockingthedraft.com To watch our collection of player profile videos -- growing every day -- subscribe to the SB Nation NFL channel here, as well as SB Nation's main channel at www.youtube.com Photo Credits: Picture 1: Jerome Miron-US PRESSWIRE Picture 2: Brian Spurlock-US PRESSWIRE Chalkboard: www.shutterstock.com Image ID: 75333472 Copyright: Angela Waye
