In my opinion a 330 pound monster from the big 10 goes a long way towards stopping the run.
Who would the offense double team? Griffin or Branch? Doubling one of them up frees up the ends and linebackers. If they can get Rocky coming from the edge, look out!

Yeah, if we stay at 6 I think Branch is the best option. He's not glamorous per se, but he can instantly make the "playmakers" excel. Everyone remembers Ray Lewis, but ask him and he'll tell you Adams and Siragusa were instrumental to his success, ask Singletary and he'll tell you Hampton, ask Mann and he'll tell you Butz and so on.
Anyhow, you can chat with Alan Branch Wednesday at 1pm on ESPN.com
