Phil Taylor said it best- You need veterans to step up and chew dudes out so games like the Atlanta one never happen. Not just vets, Clowney was a vet, you need the right type of guys. Our culture in the locker room has been an issue forever. I really hope the nerds took a harder look at the personal side of things and that these guys are the types of leaders we’ve been needing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
candyman93 Posted March 14, 2023 Author Share Posted March 14, 2023 Question, do you draft another big body to play next to Tomlinson at 3-tech? Or do you draft a smaller and faster guy like Calijah Kancey? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NateDawg Posted March 14, 2023 Share Posted March 14, 2023 It might have been a little bit of overpay, but the need for a big bodied defensive tackle was real. So, there’s a sense of desperation, especially with us lacking a little bit of draft capital. We are throwing money out there, but if we are going to compete, this is the window. So you have to fill those major holes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you go BPA regardless, but Kancey is super twitchy and explosive whereas I still believe your old school big stuffers can be had later, so value says interior rusher earlier IMO.

Having to pay Conklin and Pocic and Teller and Bitonio after having 3 years of Callahan is a bit disappointing imo. Like, I’m glad they didn’t that they’re keeping good players, but at some point you’d like to see them be confident enough in their drafting and development to let a player walk knowing they can plug in their replacement who’s been developed properly. 2 minutes ago, MWil23 said: He was hurt a lot in LA and I feel like he’s a 3rd DE type. He will get hurt and/or mauled if he’s a JAM tech like we “need”. From what I’ve read it sounds like he’s short, but that’s about it. Very physical, plays with surprising power. James Harrisonesque (not as good obv). 2 minutes ago, MWil23 said: Somehow I’m waking up even earlier now. Probably work related stress tbh. I’m having issues turning off my brain. Wouldn’t seem to be a particularly difficult switch to pull 😘 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kancey R2 and Mazi Smith R3 and my dong is throbbing for a month. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not wired to bail on my kids at school even if I have that card to play, but I’m going to try to do so…I have a lot of sick days left and more than I can use 😂 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Kancey makes it to R2 after blowing up the combine after already being a fringe R1 prospect, that’s a no brainer. I’d probably lean Zach Harrison R3 with his enormous frame and athleticism, as this year he finally put it together as a run stopper. Likely a capable NFL starter with 3rd down value as an interior pass rusher. Oh, and a Buckeye. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
