Popular Post SleepingTitan Posted April 28, 2018 Popular Post Report Share Posted April 28, 2018 I honestly didn't think we would draft him. Didn't want him. I dismissed him as another overblown ACC guy who exploited lesser talent, but upon really watching these games and some of these draft breakdowns, I can't understand how he was available. Dude is an animal. He's mental. He's a tactician. He's doing some NFL level shit on these college kids. It's not his athleticism that's allowing success, it's his drive for success and his work ethic. Total Jrob guy.

Justafan Posted April 28, 2018 Report Share Posted April 28, 2018 Voch is entertaining for sure. I like how he compared him to Von Miller there at the end and went through the draft profile. I think he did a good job to show Landry's potential. I don't think he did a great job of showing his weakness in read and react run plays.

pat Posted April 28, 2018 Report Share Posted April 28, 2018 Ironically the QB is making plays all game while Harold is working to break down the tackles. I like the pick but don't expect a dominant pass rusher. Rolltide 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like a DE version of Tajae Sharpe Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SleepingTitan Posted April 28, 2018 Author Report Share Posted April 28, 2018 He has nearly identical measurables to Von Miller. As stated in the video, a guy like him getting in touch with pro strength and conditioning + adding swim and spin moves...you got a monster. He landed on the perfect team.

Alcibiades Posted April 28, 2018 Report Share Posted April 28, 2018 And he doesn't HAVE to start right away. It's a perfect scenario for him. As a rookie, he can play to his strengths, and then get a full offseason before needing to be the starter. It gives us flexibility to let Rak or Morgan go, if they start to decline. If they don't, we end up with a wicked rotation in 2019, keeping everyone fresh for pass rush downs.

This is a kid with loads of athletic talent and explosion trying to make himself better. You talk like he is a dud athlete that is only having a chance with great technique (Sharpe). Watching the video, he showed a lot of skills. I like the pick. But. The opposite QB consistently made plays. Landry was winning battles while his team was losing the war. Am always hesitant to overrate the valiant loss. He'll be a good player but Super Bowl MVP is a stretch. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pat Posted April 28, 2018 Report Share Posted April 28, 2018 Happy to be wrong here. Watching the video, it kept being an odd juxtaposition. Landry puts a great move on the RT, QB throws for a first down. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The college to pro transition of pass rushers is hard to predict. I get the feeling that some good coaching could turn Landry into a Freeny type guy because his technique is so good. woolfolksunclesuncle, and SleepingTitan 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Justafan Posted April 28, 2018 Report Share Posted April 28, 2018 Watson was an amazing QB in college and Boston College was unranked. It shouldn't be a surprise that one DE, even a great one, can't singlehandedly win games when coverage is consistently breaking down and you're up against a really good QB. Landry put up big time production in college and has some elite traits. He needs to bulk up a little with some NFL strength and conditioning, and he needs to work on tackling and he could stand to develop some as an advanced pass rusher but he has huge potential. Coaching will be critical and so you just have to hope that Dean Pees, Shane Bowen, and Terrell Williams can help develop him.

A college QB calmly throwing a 53 yard play action TD is not the best evidence of a disruptive pass rush. That's the first example. And it continues. Until Landry gets hurt. If Josh Jackson can eat Harold Landry's lunch, then so will many other NFL QBs. Landry's a good pickup but there's some hyperbole going on.
