FYI… this kid weighs more than the DE we drafted.

All the measurables look great.... now it is what's between the ears

19 reps weighing 250? Not to get too caught up in gym numbers but that seems off. Guess he doubled up on leg day.

Yep,that's what i concern about too.

But another side,Parsons did 19 reps too

This man needs to get the Jeremy Chinn treatment where he has his own personal coach

I knew once we got into the later rounds we'd be taking players who could contribute on special teams until they we're able to start or rotate in for us. Just look at the 40 times and you can see they'll be running down the field to cover kicks.

He has very long arms, which always knocks the total number down.

That's a good point, and is the exact reason why my own gym numbers were never comparable to the barrel-chested short guys.

Did not like this pick. Yes, he has great measurables but he absolutely CANNOT cover. He allowed a 75% completion rate in coverage. That's insane. He must not have made any plays on the ball. Hell, 25% of the time it's going to be a bad throw, a throw impacted by the pass rush, or a dropped ball.

But gave up no TD'S and again he's a LB.. A position not known or needed to be great coverage guys.. 

And we got him in the 4th round.. At that point you're looking for physical attributes not perfect prospect..

Seems like a guy to play on blitzing downs in an EDGE type role in our hybrid fronts. Needs some development before more downs are given but Marquis Haynes could be a good mentor.
