Est.1974 Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 Note to self - don’t spend hours watching day 3 or the draft, it’s completely illogical 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kiper threw out the 23 missed tackle stat. He likes the player though. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DogofWar1 Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 Hampton was Safety #9 on Brugler's Beast board. Had a 4th round grade. Seems like a solid get in the late 5th. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But let us pretend we can get inside the head of a GMAP for at least one draft. He can embarrass us next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mh86 Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 Remember, Peter’s said something they did in San Fran on the last day of the draft is let everyone pound the table and make a case for their guy. He mentioned really liking that, so I’m sure we’ve got that going on here too 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually its average compared to the others. He had 107 tackles which is insane for a safety. Around the ball a lot. When you make a ton of tackles and are around the ball a lot you will miss some. But yeah his tackling can be erratic at times but a hard hitting tackler with a nose for the ball Among the safeties I tracked he has the most tackles and the third best RAS Edited April 27 by Skinsinparadise 3 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I watched every CSU home game this year, in person, and Mo Kamara looked like a man playing against children. So did Tory Horton but he decided to stay for another year.

sinews Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 Hampton is the first real "meh" pick for me (are Forest's days numbered?), but I do know he's the type of player that DQ/Whitt Jr. have a plan and philosophy for, provided he compete for significant playing time.

Skinsinparadise Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 11 minutes ago, Chump Bailey said: Whoa Also #1 in tackles among the safeties His missed tackle % rate which factors how many tackles he misses versus how many tackles he makes is fairly average among these safeties. It's clear Quinn isn't kidding when he said he wants dudes who are ballers and are all over the offense. Hampton fits that to a tee. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Birdlives Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 I don’t know much about anything which always makes the draft more pleasant to watch, but if I were Penix Jr. I’d be pissed. He’s already aging out and now he’s supposed to sit behind Cousins for 2 more seasons. He was supposed to be plug n play. I guess the 8th pick money will help. I think I know what the convo was between Cousins and Penix and why they kept it to themselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mac8887 Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 Im thinking we might take a qb in the 7th, Leary had a pretty good combine, and I like Jordan Travis being able to run whatever offense we install for Jayden. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RWJ Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 Long wait people before the next pick in the 7th but we get an early jump after the 2nd pick in the 7th to start calling UDFA and start signing them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
e16bball Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 (edited) Just watched the first quarter of the National Championship game with an eye on Hampton. It’s an absolute bloodbath for our man 😂 The traits they like are easy to see. Explosive mover, high (almost frenetic) energy, doesn’t give you much room to breathe. But dear God, that was one undisciplined safety. He was like a kid who ate too much candy at lunch and just couldn’t sit still in his chair. Let’s watch more, hoping he settles down.

I think I would take Milton if we are going to take another one. Has all the tools. Needs years of coaching to get it out of him imo. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skinsinparadise Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 Dominique Hampton IMO isn't a meh pick for a 5th rounder. He led the #2 guy in tackles in this safety group by almost 20 tackles. He's 3rd in RAS. Plays with gusto. What got me to watch him ironically weeks ago was Logan Paulsen doing a draft podcast on safeties and he mentioned if he thought of a safety who was in that Quinn mold it would be this guy. When I watched him, I agreed. 4 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RWJ Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 Hampton is the most violent hitter on the team by far! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
