Karnage84 Posted January 12, 2023 Author Share Posted January 12, 2023 I added another 47 names to the LB group in my offline sheet @Sllim Pickens. I'm working through that but will get it up when it's done. A couple names that are popping up at the moment (above average in OVR, RDEF, COV) Ryan Smenda, Wake Forest (79.3 man cover; 64.2 zone > above average); 8.6% missed tackles KD Davis, North Texas Ezekiel Noa, Boise State Jackson Mitchell, Conneticut Dallas Gant, Toledo DaShaun White, Oklahoma Seth Benson, Iowa > Dude has 228 snaps at SCB but looks like a LB from the 80's Nick Anderson, Tulane As part of my process, I'll be trying to identify guys that fit how the Lions have been using their LB's. I also think some element of size is going to be a consideration. Anzalone is almost 240 and seems to struggle with being out muscled at times. Rodrigo is 230. Board is nearly 240. I think the Lions are going to want a guy that's at least 230 to ensure they're stout enough to man the middle of the front seven. Not all of those guys above fit that so there will be a paring down. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
General Tso Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 Can you do guards next? I'm a proponent of drafting our next starting RG in Day 2 or 3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can/will. Just trying to work through the LB's (a deeper dive) as I expect we're going to be spending a higher than usual for Brad Holmes pick on the position (like a low 2nd or 3rd) but I also think there's a chance we double dip in the later rounds.

I've uploaded an incomplete list. I at least did height, weight, PFF ovr, PFF run, PFF pass for all 13. Skoronski is projected to be a guard which is why I've included him here. They did say that about Jonah Williams who has over 1,000 snaps with the Bengals. Zone Gap Run Snap Snaps Snap% Snaps Gap% Penei Sewell 477 193 40.5% 241 50.5% Frank Ragnow 447 186 41.6% 225 50.3% Evan Brown 312 124 39.7% 162 51.9% Jonah Jackson 364 155 42.6% 173 47.5% Taylor Decker 477 193 40.5% 241 50.5% Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So we should be looking for an OG that is stronger in this area (or at minimum isn't too bad but stellar in zone). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

General Tso Posted January 13, 2023 Share Posted January 13, 2023 Cooper Bebe is someone I keep mocking to the Lions in PFF's simulator 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Louis Friend Posted January 13, 2023 Share Posted January 13, 2023 Jaxon Kirkland is someone I like in the late rounds to be a backup swing T. I think adding Kirkland, re-signing Evan Brown and drafting someone like O'Cyrus Torrence would solidify our OL 7-8 deep for the next 3-4 years.

Louis Friend Posted January 13, 2023 Share Posted January 13, 2023 I'm surprised by Layden Robinsons numbers. I don't watch alot of his games, but I've watched a view and these numbers don't match what I've seen. So now I have to see more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karnage84 Posted January 13, 2023 Author Share Posted January 13, 2023 I'll be adding some of the Senior Bowl guys to the OG list tomorrow. There's a couple guys who are missing. If they've been invited to the Senior Bowl I have to assume there's a reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
