Draft Thread 2020

thehippo73 said:
I would rather have Anae than Bryant or either Okwara. Julian Okwara will not have a positive impact on pass rush. Bradlee Anae can create pressure on the QB.

And Anae just goes to the Cowboys. Watch him make an impact. I realize he won't be an All Pro but Anae can be a good rotational pass rush guy.

Literally crying about not picking a guy who would have never saw the field next year... I love how you already know Okwara isn't going to help our pass rush at all.... Even though he's had the highest pressure rate of any college football player since 2018....

https://www.pff.com/news/draft-2020-nfl-draft-pff-favorite-picks-day-2
PFF's favorite picks from Day 2 of the 2020 NFL Draft. Okwara and Jackson here.
Click to expand...

PICK NO. 67: DETROIT LIONS — EDGE JULIAN OKWARA, NOTRE DAME
PFF Big Board Rank: 28th
Of all the players that we at PFF were high on this year, Okwara is the one who I can’t understand why he didn’t get more love. Usually, edge defenders who check in among the top 10 on Bruce Feldman’s ‘Freaks’ list get over-drafted in the NFL and not under-drafted the way we see Okwara. Although he’s undersized, Okwara is already one of the best bull-rushers in the entire draft class and can convert speed to power exceptionally well. He played only nine games this past season before breaking his leg but earned a 90.4 pass-rushing grade in those outings.

PICK NO. 75: DETROIT LIONS — IOL JONAH JACKSON, OHIO STATE
PFF Big Board Rank: 40th
Jackson is quite easily my favorite pass-protecting guard prospect in the entire draft. On 460 pass-blocking snaps last season, Jackson allowed all of 10 pressures. Of those 10, only one came via a true one-on-one pass-rushing situation. This was nothing new, though, as he allowed even fewer pressures in 2018 (seven) on 398 pass-blocking snaps at right guard for Rutgers before transferring. He should be able to replace Graham Glasgow seamlessly for Detroit.

Those are some pretty glowing reviews for 3rd round guys.
