Every prospect will be torn apart to the nth degree this time of year. Should it be noted? Sure. Should it override his dominance on tape? No. Well the issue is there were long stretches where he was not dominant as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TeamRamrod Posted February 11 Report Share Posted February 11 Probably should reiterate that I’m not a Bain hater lol I just feel like people are willing to write off the concerns with him a little bit easier than other players right now. He’s a very high floor player no doubt. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

OnsideKick Posted February 11 Report Share Posted February 11 (edited) The Jimmy Rolder (Michigan LB - one year starter) tape was a very pleasant surprise. ______ Arvell Reese is usually labeled as an EDGE, so that's how I watched him initially. I just watched him in the lens as a LB... He is absolutely incredible. So much so that he can absolutely be taken 2nd overall in this class as a majority off-ball LB. Best in 6+ years.

BTiger3733 Posted February 11 Report Share Posted February 11 Will Campbell's issue is less about arm length and more about shoulder width. His wingspan is a bigger outlier than his arm length. His arm length is 21st percentile and his wing span is 7th percentile. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

socaljake Posted February 12 Report Share Posted February 12 Some college players with great tape end up just being great college players who don't pan out in the NFL. Not saying Bain won't pan out, but things like the arm length is going to matter to teams. And I don't think he's going to test super athletic either. He's going against NFL OT, not beating up on college OT. How does his game translate to the NFL does matter. Just being great in college is not a guarantee of success in the NFL.

TF_Titan Posted February 12 Report Share Posted February 12 The average NFL OT arm length is between 34 and 35 inches. If Bain is giving up over 3 inches of arm length against NFL tackles he'd better be a physical freak with impeccable technique. I don't think he's that. I won't be upset if they draft him, but if they do they'd better be right. socaljake 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
