Tanoh Kpassagnon is a HARD pass for me. He is a Margus Hunt type player. Big, Raw, Upright, kick blocker with little technique to speak of. If they couldn't develop Hunt, I doubt they will be able to develop Kpassagnon. That would be the definition of a lateral move.
We desperately need a finesse rusher. Someone who doesn't need to overpower their OT in order to get a sack.
Other than that, it's a decent draft. Ross/Mixon is one of my least favorite top 2 combos because it pairs health concerns with red flag concerns in a double whammy that could either make our offense elite, or tear it down and ruin the franchise.
I have been warming to Ross recently though, especially if Barnett is taken before our pick, as a few mock drafts have indicated in the last few weeks.
I am still bothered by Mixon.
Part of me wants to believe that he was a young man who was goaded by a woman who obviously thought there was no way anyone would ever hit her, no matter how she acted. The lingering reports that she and her friend called him the N word, as well as apparently spitting on him and blowing smoke in his face earlier in that night, lends credence to this suspicion.
The other part of me sees a violent man who may have severe anger issues and could easily enter into Ray Rice territory. Also, he may be homophobic, per reports of the incident.
I don't really want to take that risk in the 2nd round. If he's still there in the third round, I'd be open to it though.
