DT Jordan Phillips Highlights

[DOLFANMIKE]

6'2 312 pounds, has quickness inside, can play 1 or 3 technique. He will make the team and be in rotation. Mostly considered a bull rusher. ONLY 20 years old.

Love it he's crazy strong just drives people in the backfeild

 

[BONG SHULA]

Don't know anything about him, but don't mind more help for the d-line. That said, I'm pretty nervous about our secondary with Ramsey on the way out.

 

[SF Dolphin Fan]

Badly need depth. I'll take it.

 

[WCUPUNK]

Not much production in college but he just turned 21 and has insane measurables. Nice day 3 pick

 

[zullo1]

Strong as an ox. I just read he squatted 665 lbs and did 365 lbs in the overhead press. That's beast-like!

 

[Meerkat9]

I hope this Jordan Phillips is the better version.

 

[Danny]

Like this pick too. We needed DL help and we got it.

 

[jimthefin]

More beef up front.

Former wrestler and weightlifting champion. Doesn’t put up the stats but pulls a lot of double teams.

Overview
Powerful nose tackle known for his work ethic and leadership. Phillips is compact and explosive at the point but is inconsistent at controlling blocks quickly enough as a read-and-react defender. He can be quick off the snap but lacks fluidity and tends to get sealed by move blocks. In general, he’s gap-sound and can be hard for blockers to finish. He has yet to display he can provide pass-rush production, so he will need to prove he can at least be a run plugger in the pros.
Strengths
Explosive hips with twitchy upper-body power.
Generates instant press and separation at the point.
Can spring into gaps off the snap and penetrate upfield.
Has spin counter that can peel him off the block.
Secondary effort to strain and maintain gap integrity.
Uses slap-to-arm-over to bypass block.
Weaknesses
Initial strike comes in two segments instead of a fluid motion.
Gets too far out over his pads, limiting his two-gap control.
Fails to read and mirror lateral blocks quickly enough.
Below-average shed timing as a potential tackler.
Had no sacks over two seasons at Maryland.

I’m all for it. Maybe Grier took some notes from this forum on the need to build the trenches
