Jonboy Posted March 31, 2018 Report Share Posted March 31, 2018 Moved to the main board for draft month, and also merged with @Adams thread. If someone compiles everything into a neat, formatted post, I can add it to the OP for easy-reading. Edit: Videos had to be moved to a separate thread as they were causing some browsers to crash, per Guru. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably 1 in the first and 1 in the 3rd/4th. I expect we draft 3 linebackers in first 5 rounds. 1 for speed, 1 for polish, 1 for project. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GLinks Posted March 31, 2018 Report Share Posted March 31, 2018 I can see two easily. I expect a NT, OL, S and WR or pass catcher. I think one of the LBs will be a pass rush specialist. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know what position is markedly absent? Offensive Line. I've noticed a lot of the DL we've looked at have been in the 6'4 300 or so range & are more 1 gap pass rusher types, which surprised me a bit. We looked at some NT's but I thought the DL we looked at would be bigger. Jullian Taylor is a guy who could go earlier then expected. He's an awfully impressive athlete & had huge production the latter part of the year after some injuries. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they didnt get a private visit we didnt draft them. I'm going to go back & look at that list, but they're obviously strongly considering Josh Sweat. He's a kid that I'm sure JRob has spent a billion hours on already because he's really the opposite of what we look for....average production for various reasons but is such an amazing specimen. Besides the 40 & the insane vert/broad jumps he has 35 inch arms & 10 1/2 inch hands. He's the absolute prototype. And he did have decent numbers his last year & had 7 sacks the last 8 games of his sophomore year. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GLinks Posted April 1, 2018 Report Share Posted April 1, 2018 The big hold off on Sweat is his knee injuries. But I think they’re targeting an edge rusher in the 2nd or 3rd. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GLinks Posted April 1, 2018 Report Share Posted April 1, 2018 Yeah, this is what I found: “The collision dislocated Sweat's kneecap, tore his ACL and left his leg dangling at a 45-degree angle.” http://www.tampabay.com/sports/college/fsus-josh-sweat-having-5-star-impact-after-recovering-from-knee-surgery/2299796 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

FRT Posted April 1, 2018 Report Share Posted April 1, 2018 After watching the Braxton Barrios videos he seems like a good 4-6 rd guy at WR and PR. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They said that's by far his main issue. I have to assume that's correctable but a lot of the great pass rushers almost seemed to have an innate knack for getting off at the earliest possible millionth of a second without being penalized.
