AlexGreen#20 Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 Devin Bush is basically Lavonte David. He's a natural fit as a 4-3 Will. I'm not sure I like the thought of him inside in this defense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the caveat that if he lands in the right spot he's making pro bowls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd take him over Sweat in a heartbeat. I don’t understand why Sweat has such a bad rep on this board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure I like the thought of him inside in this defense. I'm not advocating for him but he reads plays well, he's got great lateral movement. He would clearly be able to play inside out and get outside our outside linebackers holding the EDGE on wide running plays. Other than his height he's not a liability in coverage so I"m not sure why you feel that way. For the record I do not want this kid in round 1, either pick.

Something to be said for it. Just not loving the thought of Bush playing any kind of regular safety reps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because somebody has to be taking on lead blockers at the second level. Not sure that's where Bush is gonna stand out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cannondale Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 Shedding blocks is everything. If he can't do it, he isn't any better than Burks, who couldn't get on the field because of it. For some reason, at least Jones was able to sift through the traffic on occasion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beating blocks is everything. I dont care if he stacks and sheds. If he can beat the man to the spot I'm good. Burks is slow on the recognition which is a major problem for a smaller LB.

I wasnt 110% tuned in but from what I gathered, he wasnt tasked with coverage responsibilities as much as rushing / spying the QB. Those that have watched more tape on the guy have a better feel for this - just thought to mention the comment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently coaches were literally screaming at Burks nearly every practice rep to get off blocks. Either way, it's not as simple as just drafting a fast guy and plugging him in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PossibleCabbage Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 I would take Tillery at 12 before I would take Bush, so I just hope 2 ILBs go in the top 11. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me he's Bruce Irvin 2.0, guy who was overhyped because he ran fast at the combine but ended up having a mediocre career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
