But I think if you're looking to add physicality (a staple of Zimmer defenses) and toughness while addressing the core of the defense, and shoring up the ability to stop the run...Colson has to be the choice. And I honestly don't think he will last to our round 2 selection. I'd be fine.with round 1. Maybe not the best "value" but since when has this team really drafted on value in the last decade and a half? They add good players even if it's a stretch of where they take them ... in round 1 especially Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly, I don’t think that any of the true LBs will go in the 1st round. The talent at that position (aside from Chop Robinson and Jared Verse, who should both be converted to OLB/DE) is in the 2nd-3rd round, which is where Cooper, Colson, Wilson, and Trotter are slated to go.

And that’s really his best position. When Penn State played him there in 2022, he was a sack machine. When they kept him primarily as a DE last season, he was a terror because of the pressure he created, but his sack numbers dropped significantly.

And, we should never pass on superior talent just to fill a need. That’s a terrible draft strategy. We did that from 1996-2003 (and worse in 2009 when we deliberately drafted backups from start to finish), and we paid dearly for it. Just because he’d be a good fit doesn’t mean you sacrifice the talent ahead of him. Edited March 1 by plan9misfit 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaddHatter Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 Byron Murphy tested well, not great - but his fluidity through the drills probably locked him as the first DT off the board. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
