Happy T'Giving! A Holiday Gift for the Die-Hard Draft Fans...


Recommended Posts

 

So....   Sports illustrated came out today with comments from various anonymous NFL scouts about who they say are the 15 most interesting pass rushers.     This is NOT to say that's all the pass rushers there are...    but these are the 14 best,  plus one more deep,  deep sleeper...

 

I'll link the article so you can read it all for yourself...     this is NOT a premium article,  so it's a free-be!

And here are the names you're going to read about...

 

N. Bosa      Ohio State

E. Oliver    Houston

R. Gary      Michigan

C. Ferrell   Clemson

Q. Williams   Ala

J.   Simmons    Miss St.

C.  Wilkins       Clem

D. Lawrence    Clem

D. Brown         Aub

M. Sweat        Miss St.

R.  Davis         Ala

D.  Jones       Ohio St

Z.  Allen        Boston Coll

J.  Tillery      Notre Dame

B.  Blevins    Flor St

J.   Jelks         Oregon

 

Deep Sleeper

 

J. Cominsky     Uni of Charleston

 

Don't take this list as a definitive list.    There are more D-Lineman.    And some guys will rise over the next 4-5 months and some guys will fall.    Remember,  it's still early in the draft process.    We are just scratching the surface on some of these guys.

 

Enjoy!!

Interesting what they had to say about the Clemson linemen.  It doesn't seem like they think very highly of them.  I have also heard Q. Williams described as slippery several times, one person described him as a 300lb bar of soap.

With what was said about Christian Wilkins he would fit perfectly in our line. They said all through training camp that they want their lineman to shoot up field and make the play. Maybe he can fall to our first second round pick.

I've heard a lot of people say recently that Clelin Ferrell is overrated and wont go as high as many believe. This backs that up. Sweat and Josh Allen are my two favorite edge players outside of Bosa

Because Clemson has top defensive lineman every year that don’t amount to much at the next level. Remember Shaq Lawson and Kevin Dodd? Carlos Watkins and D.J. Reader? Grady Jarrett might be the only one to have been a solid player.

    • Was that the only good receiver taken in that draft? And did they give up multiple picks?
    • Yeah, I have no beef with MHJ as a prospect (I think some are pumping him up a little too much, and there's some name recognition probably influencing the way he's talked about). It would be awesome to have him on the Colts. But just like every other draft prospect in history, the possibility exists that he will not live up to the pre-draft expectations.    But during the pre-draft process, fans and media start falling in love with players. Terms like "generational talent," "future superstar," etc., start getting thrown around. And now we're talking about a prospect as if he's a lock for the HOF before he's even played a game in the NFL. That's fine, it's fun, we all do it. But that's different from actually scouting, setting a board, and making decisions for the team.   Each of us can point to a previous prospect that we loved and raved about and had them fitted for a gold jacket, but who bounced out of the league within 3-4 years. And the same is probably true for NFL scouts and decision makers. Which is why Ballard's comment today -- there is no such thing as a perfect prospect -- is so important to remember. I'm not against the team identifying a guy they really want and going up to get him, but I hope they're not just doing it with stars in their eyes.
    • Would Cincy have made the SB without taking Chase at #5. I got the answer, and it is easy, it is a FAT NO. They would have never got by KC as great as Burrow is. Giving up next years 1st round pick isn't the end of the world to land a generational WR. We still have picks in rounds 2-7 if we did that. 
    • Definitely was, but essentially all of them received the same punishment initially.     Just thought it was curious, especially right before the draft. Has to put the CB spot for the Eagles in limbo.     Been wondering if Jontay Porter's NBA lifetime ban had any play in the decision.   Rodgers did bet on his own team.
    • sure hope he does we need a game changing pass catcher
