Jennings was a right now pick, where as HIghsmith is a project like Ola and Tuzar, but 3 bites at the apple will work for me. He is an elite pass rusher and ST weapon on day one. I think Ola will surprise this season ( if they play) he looked very good in limited snaps last year. I worry that Jennings is topped out and would really struggle as a stand up player. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chieferific Posted April 9, 2020 Share Posted April 9, 2020 My only concern is none of our backups can set the Edge. AJ could. Not knocking the pick. I think Highsmith can bring the heat early can could develop into a nice all around player. But you are sacrificing a little for the upside. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kurgan Posted April 9, 2020 Share Posted April 9, 2020 2.59--Cam Akers, RB 3.102--K'Von Wallace, S 4.109--Donovan Peoples-Jones, WR 4.112--Solomon Kindley, OG 4.124 --Alex Highsmith, Edge 6.183 5:20-6:00 4/12 7.233 12:40-1:20 4/15 No pick until Sunday. Unless we make that Hilton deal, and that might be tomorrow night. We still need to address F, H and K, not in that order. I am on board with K first, then most likely F, with UDFA for H to compete with our incumbents. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think AJ could have done that, as he plays like Chick to me. But, I understand the concern. He is what he is... might not be any more. But, I think we have a nice mix of solid players and projects. Kindley and Akers are plug and play, DPJ and Highsmith are projects... Wallace is somewhere in the middle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While he is the only one of the backups that can I understand the concern but when there is a chance on a big upside vs high floor low ceiling players I will reach for the high ceiling in a EDGE player. Ola was the only one last year as well as Chick was just all around awlful Edited April 9, 2020 by jebrick 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kurgan Posted April 9, 2020 Share Posted April 9, 2020 I also re-added 29 back to the list. He is a conversion prospect and should be in column K. I left him where he was, but should at least be considered. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AFF Posted April 9, 2020 Share Posted April 9, 2020 170 from F would be a good pick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chieferific Posted April 9, 2020 Share Posted April 9, 2020 Agree with K. You'll get a more ready to contribute player and I'm ok with the the backups we have now for H. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
