ravishingone Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 I liked what I saw from Penny and Davenport. Both look like smooth athletes for their size, they may have a bit of a learning curve, but I believe both will be good pros Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bucsfan333 Posted January 27, 2018 Author Share Posted January 27, 2018 I like Penny. But it sounds like he's awful as a pass blocker. Which Koetter won't like. Penny would be more of a third down/change of pace kinda guy with us. But not if he can't pass block. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bucsfan333 Posted January 27, 2018 Author Share Posted January 27, 2018 I honestly think we'll bring back Sims. So a guy like Penny wouldn't have to worry about being a third down guy. But I'm worried drafting a guy like Penny would result in him not playing until he can pass block. Which would be a mistake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
REDandPEWTER Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 @bucsfan333good work. Agree with you on a few things. - Davenport is raw and my knowledge him is limited. From what I saw all week, he’s a hell of an athlete but needs coaching. Lot of bull rushes. Saturday he used his hands better. Interesting to see where he goes. 7 is a bit too high for my liking. - penny is a day three prospect that is being hyped. I read the in game and in practice scouting reports is that he misses holes and has questionable vision. While in the open field, he can do damage with the ball in his hands, you need good vision In the nfl to succeed. If coaches noticed this in practice all week, they’ll have to go to the tape and interview processes will be key. - the article on Wadley: I can see him being a buc or a patriot. He’s a good pass blocker, receiver and physical runner. HE reminds me of a dion Lewis. Interested to see his time but if I’m Jason Licht, Id have him on my radar for day two. - justin jones and Phillips are two DTs I have my eye on too. Like the most both. Good DT class My overall take: Jason Licht should draft to the strength of the class. This year it’s DL,G and RB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like sims because you can split him out wide and in the slot. He’s a nightmare as a receiver and good pass blocker. He’s no bruiser at RB. He’s a good depth player. I hope koetter and Monken can get more creative with him on toss and sweeps and screen plays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we could run him out of the gun more than once every few weeks, it would help our third down offense quite a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good DT class My overall take: Jason Licht should draft to the strength of the class. This year it’s DL,G and RB. Davenport has a ton of potential. He shows a ton of upside with his hands, strength, and speed. He has a massive frame. Imagine him with another 15lbs of muscle. But I don't think he can really contribute right away. And our entire regime doesn't have the time to see a guy like Davenport all the way through. I liked what I saw from Penny. He only had like five or so carries. But each one was one cut and go. And he lowered his shoulder to finish every run. He had a drop but it was thrown behind him on an out route, so you can't really fault him. I thought he had decent burst. He's not 4.4 fast, but he's fast enough. Wadley didn't really impress me. But I think that's probably because the dline he played against was so damn good. It was hard to really see him when he was only able to squeeze out a yard or two before he was swallowed up. Poona Ford was another DT who made a couple plays. He's small for a DT and not really what Mike Smith looks for. But he stood out to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
REDandPEWTER Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 Yeah if Nelson is on the board with Davenport, as badly as we need an Edge, not worth the risk vs a guy who I have pegged as a perienal all pro guard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
