Who are some of of the non QBs you like a lot? Anywhere from the top guys to the bottom?

Lots of traditional linebackers I really like a lot

ILBs

My favorite guy at the top is Myles Jack. Ridiculous athlete at the ILB spot, and insanely strong for his size. The guy stuns Lineman when he gets his hands on them.

Then I really like Kendall Beckwith from LSU, and Tyler Matakevich from Temple

Beckwith is a great all around player, huge, and fast. Former DE. Kinda of like a Jamie Collins.

Matakevich is a Tank of a man, I've seen him line up as a 3 tech and shed the guard to make a stop in the b gap. One of those guys that always seems to be around the ball. Kind of reminds me of Chris Borland

Edge

Like Eric Striker a lot, little guy is a maniac off the edge. He's more suited to be a 4-3 rushing linebacker, where you can protect him a bit more. But he's a good edge rusher, and he's a maniac on the field. Definitely an emotional leader, that can create a spark. Pretty similar to Bruce Irvin

Beckwith could also git into this category.

CB

A pretty unknown Corner I really like is Artie Burns from Miami. He's one of the fastest 60m hurdlers in the country and he has incredible ball skills. Haven't seen enough of him to comment on his coverage skills, but his ball skills are top notch.

RB

I really love is Matt Breida from Georgia Southern. He's a smaller back, with great burst and vision. He runs very tough between the tackles, and he's a fearless pass blocker. Reminds me a bit of Charles. He's averaging 10.3 YPC on the season and averaged 8.7 last year.

Also like the Booker kid from Utah. Haven't seen much of him but he looked damn good against Cal. Going to keep an eye on him in the future.


DT/ 5 tech

Nkemdiche, great athlete- but he'll likely be a top 5-10 pick. 290lb 3 or 5 tech in the NFL with the same kind of burst as an edge rusher. Reminds me a lot of Sheldon Richardson, except he's much quicker.

Billings from Baylor is another freak athlete. Probably stronger, and faster than Poe. He set some kind of texas powerlifting records, and is fast enough that he ran down a RB 30-40 yards down field.

Oakman from Baylor. A lot of us liked him last year. A lot of us didn't. Guy makes Allen Bailey look like a regular guy, but he doesn't put up NEAR the kind of stats he should. He is almost like a Super Saiyan Aldon Smith. His Celing is probably limitless, but the probability of him reaching said ceiling? Who knows.

WR's

Coleman from Baylor.. Stud muffin.. Same kind of explosive athlete as Odell Beckham. Doesn't have those ridiculous mitts though.

Michael Thomas from Ohio state. Big body receiver and he's a silky smooth runner. Some very serious YAC ability.


Who do you guys really like? Who should we be keeping an eye on?

ILB: I like McKinzy (Auburn), Beckwith (LSU), Jack (UCLA), Cravens (USC), Burgess (Louisville), and Darron Lee (Ohio State). If Scooby declares, put him in here, too. There's a little guy from Tulane that is always making plays... his name escapes me at the moment, but I just don't see how he can hold up in the NFL. Very stout, but he's like 5'8".

Edge: I am not crazy about this group, but there are a lot of guys I haven't seen. i don't see Striker working out in any role other than WLB in a Tampa 2 like Lavonte David. I do like Yannick from Maryland. Last year, both starting OLBs for Mayland were named Yannick. The one that came out last year blows... but the guy that is still there is good.

CB: I do not like Burns at all. Maybe he's gotten a lot better this year but in previous seasons his name was apropos. I usually watch a lot of Miami and was a big fan of Gunter but I do not like Burns. One guy I like a lot that is not considered a first rounder is Cameron Sutton from Tennessee. The guy can play and has the prototypical build.

RB: I like Kareem Hunt from Toledo. Also like Maguire from ULL if he comes out. William Stanback is a much better RB than Storm Johnson was at UCF, which I guess isn't saying a whole lot.

5T: Yeah pretty much agree plus deforest buckner. Charles Tapper is pretty good, too. Plus he's already got 3-4 experience. My co-worker is a Miss St fan and he raves about Chris Jones.

WR: Josh Doctson is AJ Green. I'd take him in the first round, no problem. Also like Coleman as you say... Bear Wilson from Miss St, Ricky Seals-Jones is a freak. Travin Dural just makes tons of plays for LSU for years.

Thanks Cleve. I like Scooby as well. Not sure he's going to declare now after getting hurt though.

Agree it's a very weak edge rushing group.

Thanks for the heads up on Burns. I only caught the Virgina Tech game, where he made 2 very nice picks, and i checked out his other picks from this season. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XYJwRJcCbFo, and did some research, and found that he hadn't done anything up until this year.

Going to have to check out Hunt and Maguire.

Not a huge fan of Tapper. But I forgot about Buckner, Big strong dude.

Doctson is a monster. He's been tearing it up these past few seasons. It wouldn't surprise me if he had a Chris Conley like vertical jump. I am a bit concerned about his size though at the next level. He is skinnnnyyy.

Jalen Ramsey looks to be the best safety prospect since Berry. Hargreaves looks like he can be a shutdown corner. And Jaylon Smith is an animal

Ramsey is a beast. Kind of reminds me of pre Kiffin Berry. A lot of people think he has pro bowl ability at either Corner or Safety.

Hargreaves probably would have been the #1 CB taken last year.

Smith is a beast as well. I much prefer Myles Jack though.

Made some Myles Jack gifs.. Like I said before I really love this kid.

As a running back

What he's known for-His coverage skills and ability to play man coverage against receivers

What he doesn't give up despite less than ideal size, and insane coverage skills.

I also love how he plays within the scheme. A lot of undersized backers abandon their responsibility and run around blockers. Jack always does his job.

My favorite pick in this draft, QBs included is probably Ronnie Stanley.

Jaylon Smith is a beast as well. Crazy sideline to sideline speed. This is a great year for teams who need linebackers.

I don't want Stanley, But he is a stud. Have you seen that game against USC a few years ago when Martin was still there. They both kicked Leonard Williams ass.

If we don't take a QB in the 1st round, for whatever reason.......I hope we get Jaylon Smith. Dude is the next Luke Keuchly.

As I said previously, I think Treadwell accross from Maclin would be pretty awesome.
