Draft Analyst Ethan Young: S Jamal Adams Not Worth Even A First Rounder?

[top dawg]

Budda will be bedda!

It seems like the analyst is trying to analyze Adams in a box.  Like he has to be this thumping box safety when his major selling point for the draft (and to the Panthers for that matter) is his versatility and ability to play both spots and the defensive looks that can be disguised because of that.  I don't see it, but what do I know.

Ethan Young is also a Ryan Delaire fanboy. That alone tells me he can't evaluate talent...

yes..I have more questions about Young than Adams...

sorry OP, but usually a good analysis or criticism doesn't consist of just little more than calling the interest for the footbally player you don't want a "hype train" and then just copy/pasting a bunch of tweets from some guy who reaffirms your opinions.

 

let me guess, you're one of the guys on here that wants us to waste the 8th pick on a running back instead?

I originally wanted Adams. Thought he was actually good, but Ethan Young proves a point. He does have issues being the 'enforcing' type on a consistent basis, and re-watching his film shows that.

I'd hate to see us hit on a runningback in the 8th as well. Already made a thread on Fournette and an article proving how he's not a fit, and I don't see any other RB worth it at the 8.

I also looked up DE data, and - to my surprise - you'll barely find any big-name pass rushers after pick 20 except for a scarce few. I'm on the Thomas train at 8 right now, and I wouldn't be complaining.

I respect the hell out of Ethan for standing by a unpopular opinion. Same as Josh norris, they truly have their own opinion. In the the copycat, scared world of draft ranking it's rare to have your own nonbias opinion.

That said I disagree, Adams for sure is a first. Plenty of times he was a man amongst boys out on the field.

Hell Mike Mayock has Peppers as the best safety, when experts can't form a consensus are they really experts?

An alternative view is that he's just being contrarIan in order to get attention. Otherwise nobody knows or cares who he is.

True, I mean skip Bayless has made a career out being one. I don't know his angle.
