Is Cam Akers going to be the real deal in the NFL?
I honestly have no idea. Impossible to know what he can do behind the line he’s run behind the last two years.

He was an option QB in high school and it definitely shows sometimes when he tries to break the big run every time he carries the ball. He’s gotten better about it though.
 
slow LBs don't transition well in the big leagues anymore. He would get abused by Dion in practice, then by any RB thats not LenDale white in games.

To be fair, how many fast and shifty rb's was Suggs covering? Probably none. Polite is not gonna make a living doing that. His best strength is 3rd down pass rushing.
 
No to Polite or DK in the first. Also really don’t want to see us take Marquis Brown in the first. Dude is less than 170lbs. No thanks.

These guys aren’t on my off the board completely list, just guys we pass on in the first. Obviously all TEs are a no go with our first as well.

Desean Jackson was about 170 too. With speed and Hands like that, you can get away with it. I'm not necessarily endorsing the pick, but I wouldn't be mad about it. A true burner who can take the top off a defense is always valuable.

Either way, if we don't pick up another d lineman in free agency, I think it's safe to say you won't have to worry about getting a reciever with our 1st.
 
Reports out of the combine say he looked sloppy

That is concerning. Never understood how you could show up unprepared to the biggest interview of your life.

That talent though...I imagine there's a lot of untapped potential. One of those is the risk worth the reward situations. I still see a lot of mocks with him going in the early 2nd. I don't think that will be the case though

I did some digging and his interview he said he hadnt watch much of his own tape,

some people are interpreting that as hes an idiot..

Yeah..I could see him slipping to the 3rd where I think he'd be a steal.
 
Based on his tape, he shouldn't go later than round 2 and there is a GOOD argument to be made he should be a first rounder. A lot of the EDGE guys though have question marks and all will need to be developed outside of guys like Bosa and Allen. Several of these guys like Polite are kinda boom or bust types.
 
You like lanky edge rushers who rely purely on speed to overwhelm slow college tackles? He's gonna get shut tf down in the nfl if he trys that weak ****

Watch him, he is not purely speed, he has moves. Also has good lateral movement.

I see alotta potential, but I mainly see him just being way more athletic than the sorry tackles he's going against.

I like ferrell and sweat a lot more, although at 19 he wouldn't be a horrible pick. I just think he has a ways to go. With having wake to help mold him, it could work out though.
 
This is probably going to be an unpopular opinion, but I don’t want us to go defense in the 1st.

We loaded up past couple of years, this is a heavy draft for pass rushers. Take one in the 2nd.

I want a WR or TE.

Anyone in particular?

What we did last year doesnt matter. You have to look at what we need right now. Just the way it is.

I'm adding Cody Ford and his 19 reps to this list though. And since I'm doing that I gotta add the rest of the olineman because ford has better tape than the rest of the class. This O line class just isn't very good, and if we get one it needs to be in the 2nd or later.

I’m a fan of Brown

Thats a poor way to draft. If this wasn’t such a heavy draft for pass rushers, I’d agree, but I think we can find a very capable guy in the 2nd.

I’m of the opinion that MM isn’t likely to be back next year, we need the offense with a bit of experience if we bring in a new guy.
