If we decide not to re-sign Hicks, then it makes a lot of sense. It makes sense even if we do re-sign Hicks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheRealMcCoy Posted January 19, 2019 Author Share Posted January 19, 2019 (edited) Terry Godwin looking good in the Shrine Game and was impressing in the practices prior. Possible slot replacement for Agholor. Edit: he’s pretty damn slight tho at 5’11 and 174 lbs Edited January 19, 2019 by TheRealMcCoy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRealMcCoy Posted January 19, 2019 Author Share Posted January 19, 2019 Terry Godwin and Emmanuel Hall on day 3... hmm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRealMcCoy Posted January 19, 2019 Author Share Posted January 19, 2019 Saw Dane Brugler's top 10 by position and glanced at the RBs and saw someone listed at 5'7" from Utah State ranked 10th.... his name is Darwin Thompson. This is what he said about him in the short blurb where he provided a few thoughts on some of the guys: Quote Darwin Thompson might not be one of the first 10 backs drafted, but I’ll bet a few teams looking for a Tarik Cohen-like skill set will have him rated as a top-125 pick. That had me really intrigued since I wanted us to take Tarik Cohen in 2017 who went the pick after we selected Mack Hollins. Instead we ended up selecting Donnel Pumphrey later that round and we all know how that ended up. Anyways.... It's hard not to watch clips of him and get excited. Dude can scoot, bounces off tackles and while short he's got a well built body at almost 200 lbs. Not saying he's Sproles, but that move using his hand to keep himself up and keep going is something we've seen from #43. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRealMcCoy Posted January 19, 2019 Author Share Posted January 19, 2019 Pumphrey listed at 5'9" and 180 lbs according to San Diego State.... came in at 5'8" and 176 lbs. Thompson listed at 5'8" and 200 lbs according to Utah State.... Brugler has him listed at 5'7" and 194 lbs. Been compared to Jerick McKinnon, Dion Lewis, Darren Sproles, and Tarik Cohen..... So, here are their measurments coming out: Sproles.... 5'6" 187 lbs Cohen... 5'6" 174 lbs Lewis... 5'6" 193 lbs McKinnon... almost 5'9" 206 lbs Smaller RBs can be fun, but they gotta have some weight to them and the only one who was under 185 lbs was Cohen and Pumphrey didn't have his level of shiftiness. Not to mention Cohen was up to 190 lbs according to him during the off-season last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRealMcCoy Posted January 20, 2019 Author Share Posted January 20, 2019 (edited) It would be real nice if we could draft another impact defensive player..... I mean the last one really was Fletcher Cox. Not even just talking about an elite player...... just a really good one. Like what's the closest we have come to that? Hicks? mannnnnn Obviously we all are hoping that Barnett can take his game to a new level next year.

Was on the path to being pretty damn good though. Yeah I just want some guys who will make plays, not just wrap up and tackle around where they should.

Haven't broke down film, but obviously liked him a lot when I watched Bama live. If we decide not to re-sign Hicks, then it makes a lot of sense. Dude looks like a stud, plays the ball extremely well for a LB and also looks like he stonewalls into a hole. I'd be in, I like hicks, but he didn't seem himself this year...and he has his injury problems...with a tight cap maybe they let him walk. Or yea maybe they would just take Wilson and have him and hicks share the two spots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EaglesPeteC Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 What round do we think Daylon Mack goes in? From all accounts I heard, he looked sexy throughout the whole process of the Shrine Game? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I´m tired of this team not valuing off the ball LB. We need impact plays on defense so bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
