He can run and cover though and in the games I watched he wasn't afraid to come up and hit. Even blitzed some. He'll get a chance to shine Saturday, lets see if he sinks or becomes a 1st rounder. How about Jake Replogle from Purdue ? I like him in the 4th-5th round area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To this point, looks like free safeties can be had in this draft in the first and 2nd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hail2theSkins24 Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 I have no doubt we will be able to land a FS with pro bowl potential in the first 3 rounds. These safeties are GOOD. I love watching Evans from A&M, he has an infectious swagger. However, I see him more of a SS, so he probably won't end up with us seeing Su'a will be locking that down. My only worry is a big safety run at the end of round 1-early round 2. It's really early, but I wouldn't hate moving back in round 1 to acquire more picks in mid rounds, and use that ammunition to move up if Scot wants his guy in round 2 or 3. Although this past draft hasn't had a huge impact this year, I still have the utmost confidence in Scot with the draft. I'm looking forward to seeing the haul he brings in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'll have a run fit where instead of going into the gap, he'll stop and wait 5-6 yards down the field and try and catch the RB. Will Blackmon does that on our team and it's maddening.

I've seen a bit of Dawkins and not a whole lot on Feeney. Dawkins projects as a good RT at next level, but I can see him playing guard as well. He came to Temple as a DL so he has the versatility to play a few different positions along the Oline Dawkins seems to have the measurables we look for. As does Taylor Moton. Not sure how much Lauvao has left in the tank. I think we will go OL in within our first 3 or 4 picks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hail2theSkins24 Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 @Alcoholic Zebra He has the speed to be a FS but I'm still skeptical he can handle center field at next level. I'll dig more into him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Evans is absolutely a FS. Would be happy to draft him. "Ideally" we draft a FS high and sign an elite FS. Base package has Cravens and FA as starters. Pass downs, Cravens moves to the box and rookie comes in for our 3 safety set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hail2theSkins24 Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 @Koolblue13 he reminds me a lot of Karl Joseph, might be even better. I think ideally suited for SS but has the measurables/speed for FS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SkinsPassion4Life Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 Tim Williams also has off the field/Character issues....don't think SM likes drafting those kinda guys. I can see us drafting Budda Baker in the 2nd round...also great for marketing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hail2theSkins24 Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 SP4L, I've seen the off-field issues and it's up to Scot to determine his character. Maybe other teams will knock him for it that'll let him fall. I highly doubt it. I saw someone compare him to playing like Ziggy Ansah at the next level. I can see it, obviously that'd be a huge get wherever we draft in the 20's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hail2theSkins24 Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 A couple guys I'm watching today: Gerald Everett - Impressive TE from what I've seen. If we want two Jordan Reed's on the field he'll have to be selected in the 3rd. Taco Charlton- Probably will be a first round pick, and has the frame to pack on some weight and be a 5-tech menace. Athletic enough to rush the passer out of a base 4-3. I like him a lot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hail2theSkins24 Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 @UK SKINS FAN '74 I think where we pick we'll be able to find better. I have Taco in the 28-35 range, he is uber talented and has freak athleticism, but he's a bit of a tweener for a 3-4. He's listed as 6-6 275 but I think he's closer to 260,imo. We do run a lot of nickel, so I can justify the pick with that, but he won't be an effective 5-tech until he puts on some weight. He absolutely has the frame to do it. I think he's a guy who won't wow people his rookie year, but will develop into a key piece on a defense around his 3rd or 4th year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hail2theSkins24 Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 With our first pick I'm hoping for Cunningham/Davis or one of the stud EDGE guys falling to us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CommanderDOOM Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 If we want an edge guy,(like corner) we'll have plenty to choose from. Only Barnett, and Williams(flagged) right now seem to be proper value for pick 18-20ish. I hope that Scot doesn't care about perceived value because IMO getting one of Foster,Cunny,and Davis is crucial to our success in this draft if we don't upgrade in FA.
