Big Board: Pitt penetrator Donald reaches No. 7 as steadiest riser

"7. DT Aaron Donald, Pittsburgh (6-1, 285, 4.68): Given the way he dominated competition in the ACC and at the Senior Bowl and combine, no player has enjoyed a steadier rise up draft boards this year than Donald. His size likely limits him to a three-technique role in the 4-3 alignment, but given the NFL's increasing reliance on the pass, he is entering the league at the perfect time to star in just this capacity."...
No doubt that the pass rule changes made interior pressure a priority.
Anybody like Donald at #9?
