I think everyone knew Zeke would be a good pick, just not everyone was happy we took RB over Ramsey. I remember a lot of guys being miffed about Frederick and calling him a reach. I liked the pick.

If our first four picks go: 1. OLB LVE 2. OG Will Hernandez 3. WR (Insert player of choice here) 4. DT Maurice Hurst That’s a grand slam draft.

WizardHawk Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 Not my favorite pick, but could have been worse. Assuming Jaylon's health progresses accordingly, Lee gets a year to mentor LVE and then gets pushed out the door. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texas_OutLaw7 Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 It's funny. When I first mentioned him it was a complete joke given our love of BS players. But I'm pleased with the pick. We upgraded our LBers from last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I fail to see anything Daniels or Wynn have done to warrant a 19 overall pick. And you would have given up a 3rd for a guy who is really not much more athletic the LVE and didn't have the same amount of production failing to live up to his measurables. Not to mention kinda trash talked us at the combine about how we would need to trade up alot for him. For an actual defensive leader. One who has been compared to Brian Urlacher in terms of physical ability. So a 2nd round grade on that? Plus he missed games in 2016 for various injuries. One was a pinched nerve in the neck I believe. Which can hold you out a few games, but it's not career threatening by any means. I've watched him, and that's the grade I gave him. I don't like how he takes on blocks with his shoulders. I don't think he has as much pop as a tackler as a guy like Evans. I love his ability to cover. He's got great instincts. Great athlete. Love his off field intangibles. A lot to like as a player, but again, there were just other guys I liked better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyingmonkey30 Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 I will say this too - anybody comparing him to Bobby Carpenter is being lazy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaBoys Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 The only guy worth trading up for was Vita Vea. As the board fell... I would have picked Landry. 2nd choice would be Evans. 3rd choice is LVE(Who I mocked). I'm happy with the pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get him in the weight room with Woicik, let him learn from Lee and work with Bloom and Marinelli...I think he'll be something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We haven't seen what he can do at 260 which is what he showed up to the combine at. He claims he was playing around 240 during the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D82 Posted April 27, 2018 Author Share Posted April 27, 2018 Wikipedia has his number as 55, for what it's worth. This generation's Lee Roy Jordan? ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
