Watching the combine today and doing some research on a very deep class of Defensive Tackles. I love the value of this class and I cannot see us not drafting one in the first 3 rounds. I will keep this thread updated, but who are you most impressed with thus far?
Group 1 -
1. Andrew Billings - Dude is just a total load and you can tell this guy is strong as a bull. I'm not sure where he falls in the draft, but I wouldn't hate this pick.
2. Kenny Clark - Great balance and body control. I'm a bit concerned about his power, but another riser in this draft class.
3. Sheldon Day - He worked out well today and I see his stock rising. I had him mocked in the 4th round, but its unlikely he makes it past round 2 at this point.
4. Javon Hargrave - Most people didn't have him high on the boards coming into draft season, but his stock has risen. I like him as 3rd or 4th round stud. With a deep class I can see value picks later in draft.
Group 2 -
*Update*
1. A'shawn Robinson - No way this dude is 20 years old he looks atleast 35 years old. All jokes aside this guy has tons of upside and a body that will develop even more as he hits his physical prime.
2. Sheldon Rankins - Really impressed by this kid
Players that I have reservations about:
1. Robert Nkemdiche - This guy has red flags all day long. Looks like Tarzan plays like Jane and his off the field issues are a huge red flag... pass
2. Jarran Reed - I just dont like him at all for no particular reason. He has the tools, but I don't think he offers the upside of most of the guys listed above.
Overall a great class and I think we should draft a guy in rounds 2-4 because of the depth of the class. With as many developmental guys behind peko that we have on the roster. One of which is Williams who I really liked in the preseason last year... I don't think we should reach for a 1st round guy. Linebacker doesn't have the depth and is a much greater need for our division. That being said I wouldn't be unhappy drafting a stud in the first round.
