JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — Prior to this year's NFL Draft, Jacksonville Jaguars defensive lineman Michael Bennett was considered among the top defensive prospects. However, the starting defensive tackle on Ohio State's National Championship team fell all the way to the sixth round.
Still, despite his draft slide, Bennett is thrilled where he was picked up.
"This is the place I want to be," said Bennett. "This is the place where I think I can excel very, very well."
Bennett is a traditional three-technique and may see some time at nose tackle, but right now he's just trying to learn the in's and out's of playing in the NFL.
