Draft: Players you love, and the round you love them in

Ok not literally.
But for me, Dorell Scott, DT/DE from Clemson in round 3 is my guy. The guy just looks like a 3-4 DE and could spell Pickett a bit too. Had kind of a down year, but Clemson sucked overall.
Here's a nice write up from national football post:
Scott’s stock seemed to take a hit this year more because of Clemson’s struggles than his own performance. He’s a big, thickly built tackle who displays a rare combination of flexibility, athleticism and technique inside. He has the frame to add even more weight and possesses the talent to become on of the draft’s top nose tackles at the next level. Scott exhibits an advanced pass-rush repertoire for the nose tackle position and showcases the ability to shed blocks and keep himself clean inside. He opened eyes at the Combine, running a sub-five-second 40, doing 29 reps on the bench and finishing with a 30.5-inch vertical. Scott possesses impressive athleticism for the DT position and has the ability to line up anywhere on the interior of a defensive line. He is now considered a solid third-round pick and could move into the latter portions of round two with a strong pro day showing.
