Tempered Expectations for Draft Picks

college speaks volumes. Having a good Slant passing and deep ball QB like Andy will really help JR.

Willis has it all, don't know why you don't like him. I guess you are a bit correct on him being a bit stiff but he does
have bend which is what MJ and Hunt do not have and Dunlap does. He also has size and the ability to both stuff
the run and rush the passer. His range of pass rush moves are actually pretty daunting for a guy just coming into
the league.

Evans is a Simmons grab, dude could be that stud LB he wanted Lamur to be.

But in the end you are correct and it is unrealistic for all these guys to be studs.

I had Ross, Mixon, Willis and Lawson all being great players before the draft. We will see.

Watching Willis I see severe issues in his technique translating to going against NFL tackles. He doesn't have the angle of bend to win consistently from what I've seen either. Obviously players drop for many reasons, but if Willis had his ridiculous athletic scores and teams didn't question his technique and general football abiity, there would be no way he'd drop to the 3rd
