The countdown continues and our number four prospect in college football is…
Defensive End Marcel Dareus, Alabama (Junior):
Pros: For a 3-4 defensive end Marcel Dareus is a unique player. The incoming junior, who stands at 6’4”, is expected by many to be one of the elite prospects in the 2011 draft. Dareus became a household name when he won Defensive MVP honors in the BCS Championship Game last season against Texas—Dareus not only knocked Colt McCoy out of the game with a devastating hit, he returned an interception for a touchdown. But that game is hardly the only reason he’s on scouts’ radar; he is no flash in the pan. What truly stands out about Dareus is that he has an incredible fluidity for a man his size.
