Height and tendency to play with high pad level cause him to give ground at times, especially when he's slow to get his hands up. Defenders can get their hands into his chest and pop off to make plays at the line. Leans and bends at the waist, relying on his length to push away defenders instead of moving his sometimes-heavy feet. Must prove he can come off the ball quick and low, tends to raise up on contact to allow opponents to slip past him. Pass pro awareness is inconsistent, will fail to keep his eyes moving to find late blitzers. Can be out-quicked in space, as well as defenders attacking plays before he gets his body moving behind the line off the snap.
I would maybe take Kaufman, too.80 PurplePride 84 wrote:Our last pick gotta be Poyer, Rogers or Wilson.
He's big, that's about it. He also had trouble when he let his weight creep up to 370, so that's not good either. But he's a really big dude, no doubt about it.John_Viveiros wrote: After reading the NFL description

I'm not a big fan. Loved the Baca pick. This one not so much.
And this 7th round linebacker sounds like a good one. But three knee surgeries? He's lucky to be drafted at all.saint33 wrote:Linebacker U

Yep, tore his ACL in both knees. Thankfully, medical science has come a long way.DanAS wrote: And this 7th round linebacker sounds like a good one. But three knee surgeries? He's lucky to be drafted at all.
