My hope is that we end up with three first round quality players out of the 2016 draft in Ragland, Washington, and Lawson. I have two thoughts when it comes to Lawson. First the injury and coming back from it takes time. I look at Vic Beasley in Atlanta for how tough it is for a healthy rookie pass rusher to make an impact. My second, and pessimistic thought is, I hope this doesn't turn into a Hardy and Johnson situation. The later pick turns into the productive player. Granted Hardy had issues off the field which most likely led to his down fall.
Ultimately I think you have to wait till the second season on D Lineman to make an educated judgement to what you have.
