coordinator0 Posted April 25, 2020 Author Share Posted April 25, 2020 I think this guy has solid upside for the dime role in Baltimore's defense. Not sure I ever want him covering the back half of the field, but that shouldn't be his role either. Smart guy who knows how to excel in coverage despite his limitations. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DreamKid Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 Very similar to the Deshon Elliot selection a couple years back. Super young Safety carrying some very different evaluations from analysts, including some early round grades. I think we could have another steal on our hands. Like Elliot, Stone left school too early in many's eyes and his best football could be ahead of him- if he develops properly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sp6488 Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 Everything I’m seeing on this kid is super positive. Why’d he fall so far? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably not enough splash plays. He had 6 interceptions in his collegiate career which is solid, 4 FFs is hmm, 7 PD is meh, 4 TFL is blah. You contract that to a similarly athletic profiled option in Xavier McKinney (who also fell a little) with 6 FFs, 15 PD, 13 TFL... granted one guy went in the 2nd round and the other in the 7th round, so I get your point... but once a player makes it to that 4th round and below... most teams are looking for an elite trait such as speed, strength, hands, etc. and then build up everything else... with Stone, he seems to be a Jack of All Trades... and without incredible athleticism that might’ve hurt him? Just speculating. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The way he sees the game is just different and can’t be coached. That’s why he earned playing time as a true freshman at Iowa and has the highest coverage grade of any safety over the past two seasons.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoverZero Posted April 26, 2020 Share Posted April 26, 2020 My favourite pick of the draft. Just looks like he has great instincts and makes plays all day. A great way to cap of this draft class. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
