I’ve personally been on his bandwagon for a while now. Kid would instantly make us better. I look at getting a handful of picks for him as lottery tickets, whereas he’s a sure thing (or as close as they come).
Yes, without a doubt. If someone just offers a boatload, then okay, sure. However, aside from that, we need to take him. I think this would be the best tape of his ability. Penei Sewell vs Auburn 2019
In this video he goes up against Derrick Brown (#7 OA in 2020, Jersey #5), Nick Coe (undrafted in 2020, Jersey #91) and Marlon Davidson (#47 OA in 2020, Jersey #3) and he blanks them all. There are several points where he straight up manhandles them, including Derrick Brown. There is a play at 2:15 where he takes Marlon Davidson and just tosses him out of the play so the running back has the crease he needs, which I just love watching.
I try to remain as objective as possible on my Ducks. I didn't want us to draft Herbert, though I would have been fine with Throckmorton or Lemieux in the later rounds. Given the state of this roster and the potential we have at QB, if Sewell is there, I am taking him without hesitation.
