headhunter Posted April 25, 2018 Report Share Posted April 25, 2018 Was he a captain? Big ten player of the year? Theres more to it than being a hardworker. Look at the stats and accolades Davis, Jackson and Conklin put up. Hubbard is just a guy compared to them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post woolfolksunclesuncle Posted April 25, 2018 Popular Post Report Share Posted April 25, 2018 Haha...this is classic TitansReport. Each year around this time we often come to a consensus on what the worst (logical) pick would be and then we convince ourselves that this person (Sam Hubbard this year) is definitely going to be the pick. It's like we must be as depressed and hopeless as possible up until the pick because it somehow makes the pick more exciting when it's anyone but Hubbard. And, if it does happen to be Hubbard, we already expected the disappointment so it doesn't sting near as bad. Goddamn....we've been perfectly conditioned for abuse. This is why we can't have nice things. We're fucking weird. Stan17, TitanJoe, prometheus, and 6 others 3 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Face Posted April 25, 2018 Report Share Posted April 25, 2018 Hubbard is tough to figure because the rap on him is that he lacks athleticism but his combine numbers outside of the 40 were very good. His 3 cone was excellent & may have been the best of all the edge players, it was definitely up there. His vertical was also excellent & his broad jump good. The problem is his 40, he didn't run at the combine & he mentioned something to the media about waiting to his pro day because he hadn't had enough training in the 40, or something to that effect. Then he ran a 4.95 at his proday, which means the combine 40 would've been over 5. That's rough. I'd feel much better about him if he even ran a 4.8, because his other drills were so good. The other thing that bothers me is his relative lack of production. For a kid who supposedly has very advanced hand usage & top notch technique, he wasn't very good in college. Like it said in the SackSeer from FO I posted, Sweat actually had about the same amount of sacks per game & also had a lot of passes defensed, which they claim correlates very much to being a good pro edge. So Hubbard really doesn't have the athletic or technique upside. Sweat was just as good a player, maybe better, and he dealt with injuries that impeded his development & apparently wasn't asked to turn it loose to get the QB very often in FSU's scheme. And he blows him away athletically. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
THE_TITAN Posted April 25, 2018 Report Share Posted April 25, 2018 Hubbard's tape is the most uninspiring of any of the edge guys ranked for day one or two. He's got good length and a nice motor but that's it. IsntLifeFunny, and OILERMAN 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
