Hopefully he is a great player and already has learned under a HOF DT in Aaron Donald. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dc_vikingfan Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 (edited) I do hope he goes back under 300 pounds. I understand for the draft process of reaching 300 but it should be good weight from maturing. Edited May 1, 2021 by dc_vikingfan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, but not sure how much one actually gets from an agent, what maybe $100,000 because the agent maybe thought he was a 1st rounder. Who knows... Still the difference in contract round to round is massive. Look at the 1st and 2nd round compared to the 6th round. Freaking this should be shown to every single college football player with pro asperations. I mean honestly those are massive money differences there..... 1st Round – $16,939,3702nd Round – $3,7868533rd Round – $946,2114th Round – $692,9255th Round – $301,3696th Round – $161,7457th Round – $88,795 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vikingsrule Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 I really like this pick. Hopefully Twyman makes the team and shows a lot during camp. Might come down to him or Lynch, I see those two as fairly similar in anticipated role. Maybe they can keep both, and Watts? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I assume maybe he got some cash from an agent that way possibly this past year but again was probably the wrong choice long term financially. 1 minute ago, gopherwrestler said: $100k cash can get me a lot....can help out a lot of family’s a lot That is assuming an agent would give him that, I have no clue what agents pay prospects to be their agent up front, hopefully for his family this past year it was a lot. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know, even $20k can get you out of neighborhoods. $20k can pay for surgery’s. when you have hundreds or less.... thousands is life changing. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks quicker & leaner than he did at his pro day. Rick Spielman already stated that he wants Twyman under or around 300. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skywindO2 Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 I saw someone comparing him to Aaron Donald. Not sure if I want them to stop that non-sense or pump it into my veins. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SemperFeist Posted May 2, 2021 Author Share Posted May 2, 2021 It gets very dusty in the room when you watch the video of Spielman calling Twyman. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
