To do this we need a nose tackle that is a beast, he must be BIG, 325 plus, He must poses massive power in his legs & upper body, be quick on his feet, & be intelligent. This is a must in the off season along with another stud linebacker.

I agree 100%. I saw Ngata as a potential candidate for that role in the last draft, he was even there when we picked but apparently the coaching staff felt either that
Tye Hill was too good to pass up or that we could get by with Glover and Kennedy. To me the jury is still out on the first, while the answer for the second can only be a clear "No" at this point with our horrible run defense. So again this year I'll be looking for a player to fit that description you gave in the 1st round, hopefully this year we'll finally hit a jackpot in terms of drafting a DT.
