Mel Kipper's draft kit had Matt Roth, De/lb, Iowa dropping out of the top 25. Anyone think he would be a good fit in Miami? I think he is a heck of a football player and left a lasting impression on Saban when Iowa stunned LSU last year in saban's last college game.

I wouldn't mind seeing him personally. Me being in Iowa.
But with so many holes on offensive side. I don't think this will be a big draft for us defensively. but then again I am not Nick Saban. And who knows who he actually has targeted to draft.
I hope Saban has both Roth and Babineaux on his short list. Those two would fit in well with the versatility he wants in front 7 defenders. Roth could be a DE in the 4-3 and Sam OLB in the 3-4. Babineaux could be a 4-3 DT and move out to end in the 3-4. I actually like Jonathan better, though we are talking about different roles, he has to be one of the quickest off the snap I've seen.Iowafin said:
As for Roth, if we didn't get Merriman or Pollack early, I'd be glad to see us get him late in the 1st or early 2nd.
