Now in his fifth year as a Florida State lineman, Cory Niblock has had
the pleasure of blocking future NFL starters Darnell Dockett and
Travis Johnson and Brodrick Bunkley. So it's safe to trust Niblock
when he uses that history as a measuring stick for the present.




Niblock knows exactly where Andre Fluellen fits on the family tree of
FSU defensive tackles.



"Following the trend of the past five years, I definitely see him as
the next one to go," Niblock said. "He's so quick off the ball and
he's also extremely strong. Those two together are hard to stop."
