NFL Draft Stock Rises for Michael Brockers (Potential 8th pick overall)

Michael Brockers is making waves at the 2012 NFL Scouting Combine.  His draft stock has risen recently, and teams are now scheduling visits to meet the redshirt sophomore DT from LSU.  Michael has been preparing for the Combine and PRO day in Dallas at CES Performance's newest elite training facility.  He has worked one on one with legendary NFL defensive line coach Pete Jenkins while also preparing physically and mentally for the road ahead of him.  Here are just a few of the things being mentioned about Brockers in the media:

The St. Louis Rams have asked for a little one-on-one time with LSU defensive tackle Michael Brockers following this week's 2012 Scouting Combine in Indianapolis, according to Joe Everett of RookieDraft.com. The Rams were one of four teams requesting a visit.

Would Brockers be a good fit for the Rams?

Brockers is considered by many to be the best defensive tackle in the draft, potentially the best defensive lineman, inside or out. He surprised the football world with his decision to enter the draft after his redshirt sophomore season. A first-round grade from the draft advisory committee changed his mind. The film does not lie, and he has the potential to be a top ten pick, despite a relatively short college career.

Michael Brockers, a defensive tackle from LSU, is rising up draft boards because of his stature (6-foot-6, 306 pounds). His size alone gives offensive lines something to worry about as a run defender, and Brockers is explosive enough to draw attention away from Charles Johnson and Greg Hardy as pass rushers on the edge. The only thing the Panthers would have to be concerned about is a small sample-size when it comes to tape; Brockers, a redshirt sophomore, has played just one (albeit great) season (47 tackles and 9.5 tackles for loss).
