Pastor Dillon Posted March 6, 2022 Share Posted March 6, 2022 Ridder has blown up the measureables. I’m not sold on him but he’s having a nice week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not worried about 4.4 speed from my S. He’s got the instincts to make up for not being the fastest. He’s also playing S cause he’s not the fastest. I believe Sean Taylor was a low 4.5 guy 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Texansfan713 Posted March 8, 2022 Share Posted March 8, 2022 I guess its time for us to look up some Travon Walker highlights? Lance Z did a mock and has him going 3rd to us off his exceptional combine performance. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I've read, it seems like untapped pass rushing potential because he spent time inside on passing downs. Seems like best case scenario is Rashan Gary, worst case is Clelin Ferrell. I just struggle with drafting a DL who won't be a 10+ sack guy in the top 5. Maybe he's a trade down target? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lance Z did a mock and has him going 3rd to us off his exceptional combine performance. Oooooh, this would upset me. He played on an incredibly loaded defense, surrounded by FRPs at all levels… but he never really played well, never produced on the field. Walker had a phenomenal combine, sure. He was a starter on what might be the best collegiate defense ever assembled (ok, that was actually those Miami teams in the 90s and 00s, but this Georgia D is in the conversation). Despite all of that, the guy produced like a low end rotation guy. Why? Honestly, this reads like a guy who should be drafted in the 3-4th round as a developmental project - high measurables at the combine but no real production to justify anything in the top 96 picks. But it seems as if the combine is going to inflate people as it usually does. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pastor Dillon Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 Mcshays post combine mock has us taking Ekwonu. Lots of guys elevating him over Neal now. Thibo fell to 9th. I wouldn’t mind trading back and taking him 9th. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thibs at 9 would be glorious, because that would mean the Texans got a pretty nice return by jumping back six spots… I still feel as if Neal is the better option, but I’m slowly going to be on an island on that one.

Texansfan713 Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 To be fair, his stats are underwhelming because of the scheme Georgia runs. I have to see more film on him to get a further assessment. From what I'm reading is that he would be perfect as a 3/4 DE. Unfortunately we dont run the 3/4 anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see it being a situation like in 2020 where teams overlooked Tristan Wirfs a bit because he was so dominant that it was normal. Thomas and Becton had the higher ceilings and Wirfs continued to dominate like he does. The longer you look at a prospect, the more scouts tend to poke holes. Sometimes the obvious answer is the right one. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lumberjackchris Posted March 10, 2022 Author Share Posted March 10, 2022 Listening to Seth on 610 this morning, he seems to really like the film of Ekwonu. He admittedly hasn't watch much of Neal but defiantly sees why Ekwonu is being mocked in to top 3-5 picks 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pastor Dillon Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 If we get the panthers pick, I’m. It opposed to going o-line at 3 and taking a WR at 6. Might be a few spots high for a WR but it gives us the best in the class Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
