They showed him on ESPN, there was a delay

Best pick today

Intrigued cause of his upper body power got to watch some more tape. Reading Lance Zerlion write up on him he doesnt shed blocks well. He does shed them but he cant do it quickly. And thats the Northern Iowa level competition.

Easily

Great pick at 199. And not saying this is necessarily gonna translate to the field, but 38 reps of 225 is INSANE. Manimal

We needed a nose guard and I think he was the highest rated remaining.

I wanted TE McLachlan to Cincinnati who was my favorite for this and last round, here is my consolation prize.

There are very interesting guard/center prospects still available, hoping one fall to us.

He pops on tape, i know its Northern Iowa. Just heard what his bench was. Im digging it for a 6rh rounder

short armed big guys usually have outstanding bench numbers.

Not to knock on the guy. We needed a Roach replacement and he fits the bill.

 

[Joey bourque]

Not explosive is what I read. Never seen him, just going off cbs detailed analysis.
Did say he’s very good a stacking blockers, stuffing the run.

Same school that gave us Trevor Penning. Just saying

 

[GilFinnerty]

Thats very true hell i got shirt arms and i got a decent bench lol. Quickness and Strength though u can do so something with that.

 

[Taker597]

His short wingspan and arm length at defensive tackle is going to be an issue.

I don't think he'll be anything more than a run stuffer. Which is getting crazy de-emphasize

 

[Ti Rider]

Same school that gave us Trevor Penning. Just saying

Entirely different position, on the other side of the ball, so I’m not going to hold Penning against him.

 

[Andrus]

I love this pick!

 

[Elvis]

I don't know how to feel about this.

His age is also a factor. Most 24 year olds are entering their 3rd or 4th season. Like every
pick, time will tell.

I don't know how to feel about this.

Don’t overthink it. Just one old teammate supporting another.
