Devon Still, DT, Penn State


Rags

Recommended Posts

Not gonna lie, I haven't heard much about the guy before today's game, but I looked up some info on him and watched him play today and oh my god, the dude's a beast.

Still's 6'5, 310 pounds, and is a force on Penn's D-line. He's strong and pretty fast for someone his size. He's also been a leader on Penn State's Defense. And despite what's going on at Peen state right now, I'm sure he was coached well by Coach Paterno.

He's constantly doubled but he still can fight through them and be pretty disruptive. he has 14 tfl and 4 sacks this season, and apparently canly play both 4-3 DT and 3-4 DE, which I'm sure Ron and Sean will love.

I can honestly say I've got a bit of a man crush on this guy, and he's on the top of my list of guys I'd love to see us draft, it'd be a pretty fugging great addition to our Dline almost instantly.

Draft him and Travis Lewis in the 2nd (granted he's not as big headed as they say) and I'm happy.

But he does and can demand a double team.last night I kept seeing 2 guys on him.I'm also interested in the NT from memphis.has anyone seen him play yet?

Poe is a monster, weight wise, havent watch him play but he would demand a double team each snap. Plus he could assume the NT role in the 3-4. Going by pre measurables, he is my second round pick

    • There's some big assumptions in here - first, I think Canales HAS helped Bryce a poo ton. To pretend he hasn't is asinine. Has he fixed him?  I mean, the dude looks like he could perhaps be a backup or low-end starter now, whereas he looked like he didn't belong in the NFL a year ago. You're talking about a coach that brought one of the worst NFL QBs of all time to a point where he may actually be a low-end starter. That IS impressive. Second, the bolded. Come on - given the offense, the dude is far from "trending towards bust." He definitely needs work but he's shown an impressive ability to get open. He's contributing to an anemic offense. The dude is our leading receiver (though he'll be #2 in yardage by end of season by a little, as Thielen does better per game).  As to his coaching, he had this team competing and believing against 3 of the better teams in the NFL, despite the lack of talent, and despite our QB situation.  Yes, things fell apart vs DAL, and he was outcoached. But that will happen with young coaches IMO.  I don't think it indicates he cant' be better. The idea of "pulling off the bandage" is ridiculous. Who would want to coach here if we fired this guy after one season? 
    • Whatever they are in totality the cowboys are beat up all to hell on both sides of the ball and even that was too much for lil Bryce to overcome.  Bryce defenders have to hype up every other team and trash every other part of the panthers just because of the situation they’ve put themselves in. 
    • JB had a first round grade in the eyes of a lot scouts based on HIS TALENT LEVEL. If not for the injury he would have gone higher in the draft, possibly between the middle and the end of round 1. To get him just before the 50th pick is a steal. He'd be on a 4 year deal. You can't even renegotiate until the end of the season 3. You're basically paying him nothing for 3 seasons. I don't buy into all back are interchangeable. No they're not. You have average backs, good backs, then your great-exceptional backs. The latter category doesn't grow on trees. If a back is special it pays to keep them. The key is knowing the difference between the first two categories and the third one.
