It wasn't until the Combine that the media actually considered him a legitimate top 15 lock. Also, going to toot my own horn because I projected Donald to be who he is right now. I seem to remember a lot of people on here liking him as a top 5 pick. Including myself, shocked Donald fell that far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just remember him being a fringe 1st round prospect at the start of the process who a few liked (I massively drove his train that year) and he just really ascended from the combine onwards. His stock was definitely at an all time high come draft day, don't remember thinking it was a slide when the Rams picked him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thought he was the best & most accurate intermediate passer I'd ever seen. Get those lips ready. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandyMossIsBoss Posted March 27, 2019 Share Posted March 27, 2019 No idea, certainly has seen his stock plummet in mock drafts... TBD if it actually did in real life (that is, if he was ever top 5 to teams to begin with). Still my favorite DT in this draft, and what I consider a prototypical pass rushing 3 tech.

goldfishwars Posted March 27, 2019 Share Posted March 27, 2019 Man i went back to Oliver's tape and it's still really really good. It'll be classic overthink if he drops out of the top 10, unless he's a real character problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeezla Posted March 27, 2019 Share Posted March 27, 2019 I don't think he's Donald 2.0, but he could be Grady Jarrett 2.0. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember i watched a couple films and the guy was an easy top 10 pick for me. Then the combine reinforced that. Another case of teams overthinking it on height/weight.

PossibleCabbage Posted March 27, 2019 Share Posted March 27, 2019 Oliver is still my #3 overall non-QB prospect. But the NFL likes making the same mistakes over and over again, so I imagine he will go later than that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m haynes Posted March 27, 2019 Share Posted March 27, 2019 Size. Thats what the draftnicks are basing their rankings on,. Forget the tape and what he does on the field. He small downgrade. Big mistake!!!! He remind me of John Randle, not the biggest, but man can he play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoboRocket Posted March 27, 2019 Share Posted March 27, 2019 I have Oliver as my #1a, Williams 1b talent-wise, so I'm on the USS BtC as well. I project Williams to be picked higher because he's been picking up steam, whereas Oliver is old news. Allen is my favorite player in the draft due to versatility, though. Only four blue-chips, and Oliver is one of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nastradamus Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 Still an elite defensive prospect Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He gets penetration so easily and he CONSTANTLY faced double and triple teams. He could definitely handle most one-on-ones and some double teams at the next level. He's not as strong as Donald, Quinnen Williams is more along those lines as far as a speed-strength-natural leverage body type goes. Oliver is honestly unique. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
