Andy Reid talking about draft on ESPN now.

Reid on ESPN. Not sure if live or replay.

So, is Menzie just a completely wasted pick now?

penbrook 04-27-2013 12:45 PM

Really like this pick. His tackling is really good and rarely does he miss a tackle. Doesnt go for the big hit but loves to make contact.

Reid just said B Albert wont be traded.

this draft is making almost every Scooter pick but Berry/Houston a wasted pick

Moeaki, Stephenson, Jeff Allen, Jalil Brown, Menzie, Cyrus Gray, etc

By most accounts he's a plus press-man corner that struggles to turn and run.

That's not really something you can coach up, either you can do it or you can't. With Robinson and Smith, it looks like the Chiefs are already looking to go into a fair amount of press-man coverage.

Commings to FS seems to make the most sense, but if they intend to use a lot of press, he could be left at CB and allowed to develop over a year or two. But I think they need to make up their mind fairly quickly to maximize the value of the pick as he's going to need to work on his play recognition if they're going to move him to FS.

Chiefs having a far better draft than the Bucs.

Next guy on my wish list is Da'Rick Rogers - WR 6'2" - 217 lbs


Strengths
Physical specimen with power and strength. Works very well over the middle, and is extremely difficult to bring down after the catch. Gets off the line well for a player of his size. Shows flexibility in adjusting to the football, making difficult catches, and getting out of his routes. Uses his body to shield defenders from making a play on the football. Smooth, with good body control when going up for the football. Strong hands allow him to grab low and wide passes adeptly. Physical run blocker when engaged, will sustain through the play.
Weaknesses
Off-field maturity and on-field effort have been issues. Stops his route at times if not the primary target. Body language on the field can be defeating. Lacks great explosiveness to run by corners, no extra gear. Will struggle to track the football at times. Not a very instinctual receiver, doesn't always run the routes he should, doesn't fight to get open when the play breaks down.
NFL Comparison
Greg Little
Bottom Line
Rogers is a physical specimen with strong hands who overpowered defenders in his routes and after the catch on his way to second-team All-SEC status in 2011 (67 catches, 1,040 yards, nine TDs), and to a dominating season (78 catches for 1,207 yards and 11 TDs) while at Tennessee Tech. His immaturity off the field caused him to be dismissed from Tennessee before the 2012 season, and thus the biggest questions with Rogers will be about character concerns. While he's not a quick-twitch, vertical threat, Rogers is a big, physical receiver who works well across the middle, and has a tremendous deal of talent.
