Star Lotulelei probably has Ngata, Smith or Watt's potential and those guys are so important for their defense. But yeah, a top QB is worth 10 times more.
Like Brock posted earlier, Cortez Kennedy was one of the best DTs of all time and his team not only didn't win a Super Bowl, they managed only 2 winning seasons in his entire time there.

The best 3-4 linemen in the NFL were almost exclusively acquired in the back half of the 1st round.

If you like at tackles taken high, all you see is a big string of busts.

We're not talking about picking 10th here, we're talking about picking FIRST.
