The likelihood of 4 pass rushers being gone by pick #8 is beyond slim.
Again, in the past 10 years, not a single time have more than 2 pass rushers been drafted in the top-8.
Someone will reach for an OT and DB. And Kevin White and Amari Cooper are almost certainly going top-8 too. At least one of them for sure.
I think there's no question what so ever that one of the top-4 pass rushers will still be there at 8.
Even if just 3 go before us, it'll destroy a 10-year trend, and I just don't see that happening.

Im not big on Beasleys size. Id rather trade back with Fowler not available

That is probably true. But Fowler and Beasley will be gone. So, the Falcons will select from Ray and Gregory. And that will be 3 pass rushers in the first 8 which breaks the 10 historical mark.
If it were me under that circumstance, I would opt for Dupree. He may not be as day 1 ready as Ray/Gregory, but in 3 years he very well could be the cream of all of the pass rushers crop.
