Shaq Lawson and Kevin Dodd find themselves carrying a flag that has been tattered and torn a bit over the past decade.
Five Clemson defensive ends — Gaines Adams, Phillip Merling, Da’Quan Bowers, Andre Branch and Vic Beasley — have been taken in the first or second round of the NFL draft in the past 10 years, and both Adams and Beasley were selected in the top 10.
None of those five has been selected to the Pro Bowl. Now, Lawson and Dodd seem like locks to join that fivesome, and they might both end up going in the top 20.
