Athlete wise, Yeah 100%.What does it matter? He was the 47th best rated college tackle since 1986. He looks solid af
His technique needs a lot of work.
But what do I know.
I'm still just salty about last season.

Oh, I dunno...maybe because he was really the 8th OT taken?So he was like 13th OT taken why?
He's certainly a polarizing prospect, and I understand those who dismiss him because they want players who will start immediately.I don't generally quote Simon clancy but he had some enlightening info on the quality of coaching, or perhaps lack thereof, Paul received in college:
"For those curious about his coaching, last season the OL was coached by Eman Naghavi, a pretty young coach at 36. He got his first job at McNeese at age 23. Unless I missed one, this is the first of his OL to be drafted in his career (which spans Tulane and Georgia State too).
• Naghavi (pronounced ee-MAHN nuh-GAH-vee)'s 2023 unit was led by left tackle Patrick Paul who earned Second Team All-America honors by The Athletic after leading the nation with a 92.8 pass block grade according to PFF. Paul, who became Houston's first First Team All-Big 12 honoree, did not permit a sack alongside just one quarterback hit in 468 opportunities at left tackle.
Prior to that, he was coached by Brandon Jones, who has also not had one of his players drafted with additional stops at Cal and Texas Tech."

I don't even know what you are debating; I just find it humorous when people use wiki to attempt to prove their points. I guess sites just like to round up, to keep it simple.View attachment 169584
PFF also says so. What is the big difference between 6’5 and 6’6? Or 6’7 for that matter. It doesn’t matter at all lol
He 100% has the physical traits and we know TA will miss time.Because it was a deep class and he was the 8th OT taken. ThreeOTs went after him that a lot of people had as second round picks too. Amegadji, Rosengarten and Suamatia all have potential as well.
6 OTs went ahead of Terron Armstead too including the No.1 and No.2 picks, who TA ended up being a lot better than. Only Lane Johnson can say he was in TAs league.
Production, size and agility like Paul has is all you can ask for in the 55th pick.
Fair enough...Yeah I agree 100, you are dead on.
He'll start day 1, Chop higher ceiling.
He 100% has the physical traits and we know TA will miss time.
And we do still have Lamm.
I just don't know how much this helps us this year is my beef.
I’m debating the height difference between Hunt and Paul. Which is 1or2 inches which doesn’t make any difference. I gave you two websites that show Hunt is 6’6. You keep responding saying Hunt is 6’5.2. What is your point? What does that matter?I don't even know what you are debating; I just find it humorous when people use wiki to attempt to prove their points. I guess sites just like to round up, to keep it simple.
Hunt was measured at 6 feet and 5.13 inches at the combine when he was 24 years old. He certainly didn't grow at that age.
And the phucking Eagles take Jaylx Hunt. They are absolutely killing this draft. Jesus Christ.
Hunt was 6'5.13". Even you just measured up. Paul was 6'7.5"I’m debating the height difference between Hunt and Paul. Which is 1or2 inches which doesn’t make any difference.

Ok cool. That means nothingHunt was 6'5.13". Even you just measured up. Paul was 6'7.5"
So there's really no debate; the difference is 2.37". Or if you're like most sites, 3".
