Draft Prospect Videos and Analysis

Would love this pick.........

Still want to see defense though. Been on the fence for awhile now

Same. DEs are intriguing and we only have 2 on the roster that are worth a shit. DT talent at 16 will probably have the highest upside. OT probably biggest need. Then you have glaring holes at cb, lb, rt. Wr probably should be last on that list but treadwells big play ability is something that is lacking on this team right now.

Defense, Defense, Defense. Did anyone notice what Denver did to New England last year? 16 players in Superbowl drafted after 3rd round or later or UDFA. Hmmm....

Analysis

Explodes off the ball in the run game and gets downfield very fast. Sometimes too fast as he sacrifices positioning for speed. That being said his biggest positive is as a second level run blocker. Not a great push on initial blocks at the line in the power run game, disengages early and likes to climb to the linebacker rather than crest that initial push with his linemate before leaving. Has some protection recognition issues, that could be his or the QBs fault or just a great disguise by the defense. Can get beat by athletic interior lineman, Nkemdiche beat him a few times with quickness. Okay not great anchor when holding his pass blocks one on one. Gets by in large part by playing with a high motor and having a willingness to fight defenders until the whistle. Effort player with talent but needs to further develop. I'm not sure he is an upgrade over Swanson year one, and I like most of you am not a Swanson fan.
