Jonathan Bullard ‘might be better’ than longtime NFL DL Ray McDonald

Bullard’s draft stock is high, and Joe Cohen – a former defensive tackle at Florida and in the NFL – agrees with the analysts who are high on Bullard. Bullard is a former five-star recruit who stayed for his senior season and improved his draft standing.

Cohen started at defensive end in 2004 and ’05, then moved inside and played tackle on the Gators’ 2006 national championship team. That ’06 defense held 12 of 14 opponents to 20 or fewer points and nine foes to 14 or fewer, including Ohio State in the national title game.
