Going Commando Posted February 29 Share Posted February 29 2 hours ago, Always A Commander Never A Captain said: While I agree with you, Dumervil was built like crazy. Same with James Harrison. They were roughly the same weight, but 3 inches shorter. I still want Robinson on our team, but his usage should be a little more limited. Which is absolutely fine (imo). Don't want a Parsons where he's looking spent by the end of every season. Micah Parsons had pretty similar height and arm length numbers to Chop. The big question is whether Chop will have a 99th percentile 40 yard dash like Parsons did. That is the trait that defines Parsons's game. 2 minutes ago, Conn said: Not a big deal but kinda surprisingly small hands across the board for these guys. A QB or a 5’10” WR with those hands would be considered small. Makes me wonder if they're doing something different in the way they measure hand size. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes me wonder if they're doing something different in the way they measure hand size. Parsons had even shorter arms than Chop (by like 1 full inch too), but his hands were ginormous. 11"! I was looking at all the Edge rushers with hands at least 11" or more that were drafted in the first 2 rounds, and the hit rate for at least average starter is really high. That's really small for Trice. I thought he was much bigger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conn Posted February 29 Share Posted February 29 If we didn’t start seeing some 10” bands I was going to start wondering if you were right @Going Commando about them changing how they do it. Starting to see some normal measurements now but the DL group is trending small in that regard which is weird 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Always A Commander Never A Captain Posted February 29 Share Posted February 29 Who the hell is Eric Watts? I know Wingspan measurements are relatively new, but Edge rushers this long and wide are extremely uncommon. That's really comparable to Montez Sweat, but he's 15 pounds heavier with slightly smaller hands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warhead36 Posted February 29 Share Posted February 29 I just wish there were better TEs after Bowers. With two 2nds and two 3rds we'd have ample ammunition for the money rounds for TEs but after Bowers the well is super dry this year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Always A Commander Never A Captain Posted February 29 Share Posted February 29 So Braswell's arm length was 0.5" shorter at the Senior Bowl. It's also interesting that Braswell is in the LB group and not the Edge group. Wasn't he just an Edge at the Senior Bowl? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clskinsfan Posted February 29 Share Posted February 29 2 hours ago, OtisDriftwood25 said: Not the best wingspan for Chop. I don’t think you need 35 inch arms like Trent Murphy but longer arm’s definitely helps. I remember Dumervil having Borderline HOF career with his arms and leverage. Yeah. Those arms are shorter than I thought. He is going to shred the on field stuff at the combine though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But what a piece of clay there is to mold. 4.85 for Dorlus is a really good time for him. I love him as a 3-4 end. The guy is a beast. Fiske with a 4.78! Ripping.

Always A Commander Never A Captain Posted February 29 Share Posted February 29 Holy ****, this draft lacks size, but all of these undersized DT's are putting up some great testing numbers. Who is Ruke Orhorhoro? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OtisDriftwood25 Posted February 29 Share Posted February 29 I really like this second day DT field. In mock drafts I always find myself taking one between 36-100. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That and his 40 was what set Parsons apart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koolblue13 Posted February 29 Share Posted February 29 10 minutes ago, Always A Commander Never A Captain said: Too bad DT is like the one thing we don't need. Always need youth at strong positions. Allen at DE, with one of these smaller Edge speed guys on the other side. Mathis is a bust, so we need a 4rth IDL and Ridgeway isn't the greatest. Just because it's our best position group, doesn't mean we can't improve on it. 4 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chump Bailey Posted February 29 Share Posted February 29 3 hours ago, DWinzit said: Would Kinchens be 3rd? He's my top rated Free Safety. I felt the need to distinguish between them when ranking though certainly some are very adept at both. 22 minutes ago, Always A Commander Never A Captain said: Holy ****, this draft lacks size, but all of these undersized DT's are putting up some great testing numbers.

He was a bit late on my radar but I'd rate his power & strength ability right up there with Darius Robinson. He does not have the motor though as DR. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
