Carl Nassib

Nassib will be a DE in a 3pt when we go to four man fronts. Probably could have had him a bit lower, but it is what it is.
As far as I know, I don't think Von ever played as a rush end at A&M. I remember him either dropping in coverage or standing up off the edge. Nothing like what Penn State asked of Carl.

In 2009 (I think 2008 too, but definitely 09) he played pure DE in Joe Kines' defense. He switched to OLB in 2010, his sack number dropped to 10, and he won the Butkus Award.
In 2007 (and maybe 08), he was at OLB then as well, I believe. They could never decide how to use them, but then again he played for two head coaches and three DCs.

Negative. He won't be a linebacker candidate. At least, I can't see that transition happening at all.
Obu, yes. Carl, no.
Don't remember if he was standing up, but I did see him drop at least once and he said in an interview tonight that he dropped a time or two in every game last season, FWIW.
I think you throw 15-20 more pounds on him (he showed up to PSU at 215 and is 275 now so who knows if he's at his ceiling or if he can still grow comfortably), sacrifice some of the pass rushing abilities, and you've got yourself a really good, complete, 3-4 DE.
I worry more about Ogbah's transition than this one, but Hue said Ogbah stood up a lot in college.

I wouldn't put any additional weight on Carl. His game is what the tape shows a LE in a four man front which we'll play plenty of. He'll give a tackle fits here and there, he'll probably be great for your linebackers to that side and string out any stretch plays or curb them back into pursuit. Trying to do to much to this kid is exactly why I hated what Pettine did with my boy Billy Winn.

Agree... if he adds through maturation, fine, but don't pack it on and lose his burst.
Any thought on Zettel? When I watched Carl's tapes, I found myself being distracted by Zettel fairly often. Actually ended up feeling that he had more value potential in a 3-4 than Nassib did.

When I first heard the Nassib pick, my immediate thought was 'why not Zettel'.
I think because Horton realizes he'll be playing more four down than usual and went with the pick that would provide more immediate returns. As for my thoughts on Zettel, I can't say I've watched him extensively. This draft season has been a rough one for me, I haven't watched nearly half of the players I wanted to.

Sure... if you add about 40 pounds.
Bryant is 6 foot 6 310 pnds. I can guarantee you he wasnt 310 coming out of harvard. Nassib is 6 foot 7 280 pnds. So hes almost there. Im sure by the start of the season he will be close to 300 pnds for his playing weight. This guys game isnt his speed or finesse its his power and motor so more weight and strength wont halter that. Perfect fit for hortons 3-4 DE position.

Hes 6 ft 7 and not playing olb. They will surely have him put on weight at his position. Im not sure what you were watching but this guys game is not finesse or speed its shear relentless power. Which it will continue to be as he gets bigger and stronger. The frame is there to build on.

Also i dont see him playing in our 4 man front nickel packages that will be an olb on each side and most likely two defensive tackles in the middle. Maybe in a few yrs hed play in those fronts in the middle but doubtful. Hes a defensive end for our 3-4 base packages.
Slow Ur Role Jabroni! -
people just don't walk on to Penn State football. this guy did. Am all in.. Rudy, Rudy (just stay onsides
)Rudy, Rudy
Seriously, shut up with that Rudy crap.
Rudy is an asshole - he was convicted of securities fraud in a penny stock pump-and-dump scheme. He has serious character flaws.
The movie itself was a steaming pile of shit.
1) Rudy was a transient turning tricks for an overbearing pimp with social anxiety
2) That scene where they carried him off the field? Yep, Joe Montana admitted they were completely playing around [and that it was BS].

Going to go ahead and save these posts. Your choice of words and terminology leads me to believe you were first introduced to football via Madden.
So let's just re-visit this topic in six months. If Nassib gets any interior play it will be one gap assignments or a glarring lack of depth. It'll be fun coming back to this.

This kid plays lights out.
-
Ewwwww, 5 tech? Nassib? Oh c'mon Horton....I'm already getting the groans. Frankly I don't see room on the team for both ogbah and nassib unless their planning on moving kruger
-
And by moving i mean trading him the fuck away
-
Ogbah at OLB. Nassib at 5 tech. At least one will pan out, I would bet. And that's all you need.

He might not have the dip in his lower frame but Carl has good burst off the edge. Again,classic LE in every sense of the phrase.

If we can find a way to have them both on the field at key moments in the game when we are trying to pressure the QB, I'll be elated.
Edit: that was the beauty of watching Denver this year. QB's were shaken up so bad they had trouble thinking through the progressions.
-
Or perhaps a package with Nassib, Obu and Orchard on the field at the same time.
It isn't a stretch for Horton to bluff A gap pressure just to get young ends favorable looks on the outside.
Emmanuel won't be be full time linebacker. He's not ready for that. He will have his hand in the ground at times. On a Team starved for pass rushers, no such thing as too many options.
