When you are scouting a prospect on tape, who is diverting your attention?
-
Checked out some J. Ramsey tape and Florida State has 2 of em....Lamarcus Brutus, hard hitting safety with an awesome name.....and Terrance Smith, OLB.....both guys Id take a late round waiver on or snap up as UDFA's....
Just watched some of Brutus' play. He puts it on people for sure. I hadn't even heard of the kid before you mentioned him.

Is this happening to you? If so, who?
Always happens to me sooner or later...
I'm breaking down some OL and I keep hearing the announcers mention a name over and over and... Often a name I do not know/never had an interest in. Pretty soon I am fighting to keep my attention on my intended.
Might be another offensive player...
Might be a defender...
Has happened twice so far to me.
The first was a ND WR named Amir Carlisle... 5th year Senior... 5'10 190
Low production... low mileage... seems destined to be an UDFA.
Kid was freaking electric vs. Texas and flashed vs. Clemson and our Buckeyes to boot.
The 2nd was Ole Miss QB, Chad Kelly... Jim Kelly's nephew... 6'2 215 r/Sr.
Other than a couple inches (and a couple of "run-ins" with the law) the kid appears to have a good shot at being a complete QB. Looks a lot like Uncle Jim in his play. DraftScout has him as their early, 2017-Class' #1 QB.

Chad Kelly is the man.
He's no Dr. Bo, but he's still good.

Tyler Matakevich Temple ILB 6'0 233
Scouting ND's Nick Martin and this kid is making plays all over. I'd never heard of him, but turns out he's DraftScout's #4 ILB prospect with a second half of Day Two projection.

Meanwhile back at the topic...
Cheated a little and spent some time watching Hunter Henry (AR) TE... In a word, wow...
Kid is 6'5 250+ and glides through pass routes. Saw him run a square in that was so sharp it'd have made a smurf proud. Good hands although did tend to body catch. Only real receiving needs seems to be learning how to read so he can figure out when and where to settle.
Blocking looks good with OT Jr. technique. Handled a couple Edge rushers all by himself. No problem finding and handling run blocking assignments.
I know Barn hadda year... etc., etc... but that was one... and it came from left field.... and it did not include blocking.
In this kid you have three or four years of no concern with the position.

Just read that Akron Linebacker Jatavis Brown was the star of the regional combine this weekend and ran a 4.4....so I looked him up and liked what I saw...small, but lightening fast and MAC defensive player of the year.....dude can definitely pursue and catch ya!

Tour-You must have seen Hunter Henry's bowl game and/or his games against the two Miss. teams. Pretty damn impressive.

Checked out some J. Ramsey tape and Florida State has 2 of em....Lamarcus Brutus, hard hitting safety with an awesome name.....and Terrance Smith, OLB.....both guys Id take a late round waiver on or snap up as UDFA's....

One thing about FSU players is that they are often very productive players in the NFL as well. I like Terrance Smith also FWIW

oooof. forgot. post/pres-season garble is so important that you can't make fun or have a laugh because someone might take it is an insult to their logical question posted a week after the final game of the season.
film room? isn't that where your dad and his buddies that hung out and made my life miserable would come in and sit around with snacks and drinks the wife made while watching the 'swedish eroctica' series (vannessa del rio tape was always sticking?) on video.
great fun for kids on a sunday after doing your godly duties.

One of the things about him is that he was behind Jalen Ramsey, so really never was a starter and missed out on some playing time.....BUT...still led his team in INT's and was third in tackles....impressive....

My dad is a Temple grad. I got to see a fair bit of him. Tackling machine and generally in on every play.

Brown ran a 4.47 at the regional combine.

Seems like NFL Network or someone is missing out by not broadcasting at least the highlights of these regionals, if not, a general broadcast.

Indeed. I think it would get a decent amount of viewers.

Couple of TarHeels...
Elijah Hood (RB) 6'0 220 w/ very fast feet. 2018 prospect unless declares early. Very determined runner.
Ryan Switzer (WR) 5'10 185 *cough* undersized, but extremely quick and fast.
