    Ben Powers interior lineman from Oklahoma

    Dude is pretty strong, and plays physical. Uses his hands pretty well. Not a great athlete, but he hits people.

    Can this guy block?

    I’ve always dreamed of having a TE with that massive length and athleticism.

    Geezuz.
     
  5. I havent seen him in line or blocking very often if at all.Stetson appeared to be a pass first style team & usually the ball going in Parham’s direction

  8. Tony Pollard All purpose back Memphis

    Lines up all over the place to run routes & take hand offs,also a dangerous returner. Just an out & out playmaker.

  9. Jace Sternberger TE TAMU

    1 year of great production but very well rounded w impressive hands,size & a smooth athlete.

    The first name & being from a Texas school does cause a split second of pause from a green tinted perspective..

    Looks like a more athletic playmaking version of Trenton Cannon (although not as fast).

    Jawaan Taylor OT Florida

    Seems to be a good pass blocker and has a high football IQ FWIW. Might end up at RT, but that position is becoming as important as LT. Jonah Williams is getting the label as best OL in this draft, but I feel Taylor has more upside.

    Here's a multi purpose playmaker who's faster than Cannon: Mecole Hardman - electric.

    I'd take Taylor over Williams. Williams lack of length projects more as a guard in the NFL. If the Jets ever traded back (with Jax at #7) I wouldn't mind Taylor (before the Bills at #8 can get their mitts on him). From there maybe look to grab another OL with one of their 2 third round picks as well as a playmaker, sign Matt Paradis as a FA and bingo, 3/5th of the OL replaced with a playmaking weapon for Sam to boot (lots of WR depth)...

    Gase is probably looking at this guy considering he drafted Kenyan Drake as a multi-purpose back in Miami.


    Later round - raw and often out-of-control but with a huge motor: Trystan Hill, Central Florida.

    Rock Ya-Sin CB Temple

    Good size, speed, and awareness of where the ball is. Can play man or zone, but not a finished product. Might be available in round 4.

    Ronheem Bingham, OLB, Arkansas State

    Unbelievable get off and motor. I think he's going to be an absolute steal for a 3-4 team in the mid rounds. He's as productive a pass rusher as anyone in the nation (albeit against lesser competition for the most part...did manage to clown Jonah a few times though).

    Well done Kurt and this an awesome thread. One reason why we need more draft picks. Def need a recurved at 3.
