I recently saw a mock that had him going in the 3rd round. anyone think this happens? I think he's still a first round talent, but will probably go early second.
He's kind of like Burfict last year, someone talked about for a long time as an easy top 10 pick then after the combines begins to fall. I don't think he'll fall to undrafted like Burfict did however. There are players like that every year, sure thing top 10's around this time suddenly fall to 2-4th round picks. Te'o was a sure fire top 10 till 2 months ago. Now there's a question of not only is he a first round pick, but is he even one of the top 4 ILB's in the draft.
Word is that he hurt himself more in the interviews than on the track during the combine. He seems to be viewed as an immature 20 year old kid and a risky investment.
Wow, it's really amazing how much his stock has fallen. There was a time I thought he couldn't be available at #9. Now with all the arguments/debates on who should be drafted on this forum you don't see anyone even mention this guy. And this is a forum where people are always ready to defend different opinions. I wonder what Denver would do if he's on the board. Him & Von Miller are college teammates. Surely Von Miller would give them an advantage in dealing with him if he has any personality or off the field issues.
would be awesome. or even take someone like Warmack in the first then go Moore in the 2nd, and/or Cornelius Washington in the 3rd.
Honestly, a week ago I would have been set to take him at the 9 (assuming Jordan and Jones were already gone.) Even now I think he's worth a top-20 pick. I would be ecstatic if we could get him in the 2nd.
I wouldn't mind him at 9. Unless Jarvis Jones is there of course. If he was to be there in the second I'd be ecstatic.
