    Grant Delpit might be chocolate Hitman Harry.     6'2 203.   Kid has the frame to fill out and put on a little more 'good' mass.   But when I watch him I see more of that tweener role and less of a pure deep middle man.    Although I admit he has solid eye discipline and good range, I just think his footwork needs some serious cleaning up before I make him my secondary general.    I wasn't fond of the idea of matching him with Randall, but after watching two games this morning.... I'm warming up to the possibility.

    I've watched him for several games "live" and you can't underestimate a tone setter for a defense. The guy is a leader and a "ball sniffer". Somehow he ends up wherever the ball ends up way more than anyone else on that very good defensive team.

    The more I watch, the more I wonder if injury is why I perceive a drop off.  There's a play vs Alabama I saw that jumped out at me so immediately I had to watch it a few times.   It's one of those where I would love to sit and pick his brain on what he saw because it was either brilliant or reckless. A fine line the best safeties walk play after play. 

    I'll link it later when I'm through with all the busy stuff.

    As for Hurts;   thinking Bill tries his hand at getting his own version of Lamar lite?

    Yup... and if not Bill someone will... maybe Roman, if he ends up with an HC gig.

    I actually like Hurts' chances. He won't be the elusive runner Lamar is, but he has speed and one-cut ability. Plus he has arm talent and showed at OU that he can pick up a new offense PDQ. It'll take some patience, but should end up worth it.

    Depending how the coach situation turns out I like the idea of Hurts in day two. I think Baker would enjoy having an OU dude on the roster and Hurts, if anything, is clearly a leave it on the field guy.

    Watching Taysom Hill and Lamar (although totally agree he’s not the same to Jackson) really makes you wonder how Hurts could look as QB2.

    Big enough names are plug in and watch.  There is usually a few games cut for them specifically.

    I've had to be patient but many people upload whole games, which I then have to go through and play spot.   It's a pain in the ass, but if I want to see more of a player, sometimes it's a necessity.

    That was the great thing about DraftBreakdown... you could find some tape on even Day 3, small school prospects.

    Yessir, the youtubes.

    DraftBreakdown was great.  Shame it sounds like it has gone the way of the dodo bird.

  • Play I mentioned from earlier starts at 23 seconds.

  • I'm watching PBS.  Ok so I'm a nerd.

    Hey only one more actual game until the real NCAA meat market games begin like:

    Both annual college showcases that the NFL supports — the East-West Shrine Bowl and Senior Bowl — impact the community through charitable causes. Created by the Shriners in 1925, the East-West Shrine Bowl supports Shriners Hospitals for Children in its mission to help children in need of expert medical care. The Senior Bowl benefits various local and regional organizations.

    “The East-West Shrine Bowl merges both the game with community service by enriching young lives at the Shriners Hospitals,” said Troy Vincent, NFL Executive Vice President of Football Operations.

    The NFL supports:

    • East-West Shrine Bowl – The NFL provides the coaching staff, game officials and four Legends captains for the nation’s oldest all-star college football game. The game is an opportunity for emerging assistant coaches to gain valuable experiences and showcase their coaching and leadership skills. The 2020 game, Jan. 18 at Tropicana Field, will air on NFL Network.
    • Senior Bowl – Two NFL clubs equip each team with full coaching, training, video and equipment staffs to support the annual Senior Bowl. The 2020 Senior Bowl on Jan. 25 will air on NFL Network from Mobile’s Ladd-Peebles Stadium.
  • The NFLPA Collegiate Bowl

    The future of football is bright – and it’s right here. The NFLPA Collegiate Bowl is the premier postseason all-star game for any draft-eligible college football players. More than just a game, this week-long experience provides players with the chance to showcase their game to NFL scouts and coaches, while learning from the best in the business. The Collegiate Bowl not only prepares players for the speed and intensity of professional football, but also for the business and lifestyle changes that come with it.

  • He'll be in it. Has declared. Hope he doesn't fall to the stupid Patriots. How high in the first round if he goes go in the first round?

    An SI article on his best fit possibilities: If he jumps to the top ten, that could really help the Browns' chances of getting their top desired pick to fall to them at ten?

  • Georgia had high hopes for a final four spot but still had a good season.  Fromm won't be in the top 3 but will all of the soon to be retiring quarterbacks should get some good looks at the workouts.

    Georgia fell short of the College Football Playoff for the second straight season. The Bulldogs finished with a 12–2 record, their only losses coming to South Carolina and LSU.

    Pats have Jason Stitham.  Is Fromm considered an upgrade from him?  

  • QB
     
     
    RK PLAYER SCHOOL YEAR POS POS RK HT WT    
    2 Joe Burrow LSU Sr QB 1 6-4 216

    91 Jalen Hurts Oklahoma Sr QB 7 6-2 218    
    Per CBS here, they give him a late 2d round grade.
  • I coulda sworn a year or 2 ago Fromm was considered the next big thing at QB.

    Does anyone else think it’s funny that there’s a Tua and a Fromm in this years’ QB draft class?
