teamcal00 Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 I'm interested to see if the Skins package a few pics to trade up and get somebody they really love. Pretty sure they're not going to keep all of the picks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mistertim Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 His pressures/sacks allowed stats are nice, and his raw numbers seem to indicate good agility. But I'm a little worried about his size. 6'2 1/2 is pretty short for a G. Wingspan is pretty bleh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said it was the FIRST bad pick. Meaning I loved the first three picks. How the **** do you know Love is going to be a good player? At least I gave several reasons as to why I thought it was a bad pick while you're shooting the Kool aid into your veins We’ve finally got our first “Bruce” on Day 3. That should tell you right there that it’s been a competent draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His measurables are pretty meh except for his bench numbers. It appears he is a better pass pro guy than run blocker. Lets see what Callahan can do with him.

The question was more to the y'all, I'm sure there's a reason. Unless you got one, no need to be a smartass. I like this guy, but Jordan is bigger and played with Haskins, why I asked.

All of that weight lower to the ground is harder to move and gives better leverage in the run game. Harder to get under his pads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlvinWaltonIsMyBoy Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 I like the Love pick. Followed him since high school. Local, NC boy. Great talent and a truly impressive young man. Glad he'll be putting on the B&G. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Birdlives Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 Always amusing to watch people getting butt hurt over day 3 picks. ”They Just blew that 6th round pick! I had 5 guys at the same position ranked higher! What were they thinking!” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wilco_holland Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 When we drafted Austin Reiter we had same reaction. Who? Small? There where better players So I just sit back and see what happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShredSkins Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 1 minute ago, Thinking Skins said: that makes me feel a lot better about this pick. Maybe he was the Guard they wanted and on top of the board...So the trading down and taking Love really was a luxury pick. Or they reached because all the other Guards were gone lol I dunno Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Conn Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 5 minutes ago, turtle said: Why would we replace him? Because he's a walking injury on the last year of his extension? Why would you re-sign a non-special RB to a 3rd contract is the real question, when you can replace them with mid-round rookie contracts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All of that weight lower to the ground is harder to move and gives better leverage in the run game. Harder to get under his pads. It's certainly not as much of an issue as it is for a Tackle, but you still want your Guards to have some length in order to get their hands on a guy first and get that punch. If he goes against a 6'4-6'5 DT/DE with a good wingspan and who can use his hands well it could be problematic. I'm certainly not saying it's the end of the world or a bad pic, just that I can see it as a concern for teams and probably one of the reasons why he isn't really on many peoples' radars.
