I really like David Amerson, do you think with the proper coaching he will become more consistent? he seems like a ball hawk but is fooled by double moves easily
Great info!
What do you think of Chris Faulk, OT, LSU?
Also, I read that Dion Sims has dropped from 285# to 262# and his lean body comp is now 13% down from 18%. Given this commitment to get better, and his past success as a receiving threat, shouldn't he have some serious upside? We need a blocking TE now and if he can get "faster" and become even more of a receiving threat, wouldn't he be a steal in round 3 or 4?
Many of your targeted players will slip through to round 4 and beyond, I think we should try to obtain some extra late round picks and draft them for cheap.

Hoops, whats your take on Nickell Robey?? I went to high school with him and hes great corner IMHO but im curious what you think about him..
You know what...the more I watch Mingo the more impressive he is. I don't understand the love affair with Dion Jordan, everything I see Mingo do points towards him being a superior prospect. I'm not sure how much I like either of them in a 4-3 but even as a situation pass rusher in his first year I'd sign off on him as a Dolphin. Pass Rush > Run defense, across from Wake we could have our Bruce Irvin type guy, except I think with a higher ceiling.
On top of that, I want to see Odrick playing on the inside a lot more than the outside, if we could have a front of Mingo-Odrick-Starks-Wake on passing downs I'd be fine to take the trade off on the other downs for that type of pass rush! Not a lot of these pass rushers in the draft impress me too much honestly, so thanks for opening my eyes.
welcome to the light...
I've been condensing all my film watching a little bit late in the process...think it took me watching some of the other guys to really see the "light" hahahha.
But honestly, why is Dion Jordan a consensus top 5 pick??? I've seen very little as far as rushing the passer.
explosive tools...terrific size...serious upside...but he's a stand up guy all the way...very fluid...34 team is gonna love him...pass rush though is very raw...but the tools he has are very high end...just needs work and polish i'd say...but 34 olb all the way
I see the wingspan, definitely a 3-4 guy. I guess when I'm looking at a 3-4 rusher in the top 10 I expect to see some pretty impressive pass rushing ability and I just flat out don't see it. He seems OK against the run, moves well but I just don't see the production/power I'd expect out of a guy who's such a consensus top 5 guy. I see him on tape and I see a guy who's in the 15-25 range at best based on his tools.
i agree with the pass rush sentiments as of right now...he needs a lot of work...no rush arsenal no counter pretty much just runs around guys on the edge but he does dip the shoulder at times and he flattens to the qb well once he gains the corner...his get off of the ball and first step though is extremely good and will have tackles attention...needs to get stronger i agree with that also...
talent wise i think he shows top 10 type worthy pick stuff and upside...pass rush wise this kids not very polished does not have the same immediate rush impact as a von miller...not sure i ever see that in the cards there...
