There is a reason why that 2018 Clemson defense was so dominant!

Exactly 5 years ago today, Clemson set a new record for DL taken in the 1st Round with the 2019 NFL Draft.

- Oakland Raiders selected DE Clelin Ferrell with Pick 4
- Miami Dolphins selected DT Christian Wilkins with Pick 13
- NY Giants selected DT Dexter Lawrence with Pick 17

Still can't understand why the Raiders drafted Ferrell that high. It was clear that Dexter and Christian were the best 2 we had.

Answer: That was the Raiders just being the Raiders. They have never done anything "normal" as far as I can see.

That was a really solid class for defensive linemen too.

But Jon Gruden still drafted Ferrell over...

Rashaun Gary
Christian Wilkins
