2011 was THE year to get a DE, but even if you’re a team that missed out on a playmaker in 2011 this new crop of ends will be plenty to choose from. Quenton Coples is currently the top DE but with a strong season Brandon Jenkins of FSU could possibly catch him. As of now though Coples is in the top 3 of all players for 2011 and that likely will not change baring any medical skeletons fall out his closet.
