barnaby8787 Posted April 18, 2018 Share Posted April 18, 2018 Random, but apparently Arden Key is projected in the 3rd or 4th now per most, which is pretty crazy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know, at the end of the 2016 season he was considered a top ten prospect. Now he has too many red flags. Lance Zierlein at NFL.Com outlines his weaknesses. Weaknesses Evaluators are worried about his personal discipline Left team for four months in spring of 2017 for "personal reasons" and had shoulder surgery during that time Saw weight balloon up to 270 pounds Segmented mover and lacks fluidity Liability in run game Struggles to dominate tight ends at point of attack Slow to shed Tightness in hips as an upfield strider Lacked juice even after losing 20 pounds during the season Upfield rush plan was predictable and sluggish in 2017 Shows lead hand early allowing tackles to slap it away before landing Two-hand swipe ineffective at greasing edge Telegraphs spin move Plays with wasted motion on the edge Uninspired when dropping into coverage Plays upright and is lackadaisical in zone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want nothing to do with him. We are finally building a locker room full of guys that wanna go out there and do whatever it takes to win, and Key just doesn't seem like that kind of guy. I don't understand the appeal of him. 6'6 is great, but 238lbs at the combine is rough for a dude that tall. Also he is supposed to be a guy that wins with speed and quickness, and he ran a 4.85 40 at his pro day. That is like a 4.90+ at the combine since pro days are always faster. That is glacial for a guy his size. He is Aaron Maybin with a worse work ethic and a really weird attitude. He answers questions in odd ways. I wouldn't take this guy before the 5th round personally. I would much prefer Nwosu, Sweat, Holland, Ogbonnia, Leonard, and probably several others in the mid rounds over Key. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not saying I want anything to do with him, but found it interesting how far he dropped post-combine. To me, he's Mingo 2.0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rickyt31 Posted April 21, 2018 Share Posted April 21, 2018 Seems like no one has the same projects for rounds 3-6. They are completely different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rickyt31 Posted April 21, 2018 Share Posted April 21, 2018 I think the ILB position is a big one to keep an eye on. None of ours are locked in as a starter for next season and there are some interesting names out there in the 4-6 round range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harris Smith Posted April 22, 2018 Share Posted April 22, 2018 A bit of a project, but OL Brandon Parker is considered a sleeper pick by Mark Dominick, a mid round selection. He's a coach's son with all the physical tools, needs work on technique. That's right in Macc's wheelhouse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
