    But I want to see how he handles a little pressure in his face...getting off his spot...it’s coming with OSUs interior dline. 

    That is the concern I have always had about both Bama and OSU QB's. They both are surrounded by 5* and high 4* HS best in states they come from players, so against most teams they play the QBs are not pressured that much. Willie Joe is one of the few who was able to make it decently in the NFL. along with Bart Starr, and Kenny Stabler, all Bama players. Tom Tupa from OSU was decent too......................as a punter. Am I missing any other OSU QB who was decent in the NFL?

    One of the reasons why I love small(er) school QBs.   At least, schools that don't have a pool of 5* talent around their QB.   Makes it a bit easier to see who really is the one elevating the play of the offenses.

    Mike Tomsczak is the best by far that came out of OSU.  Played 15 years in the league.  But mostly as a backup.

    Yep-I learned that lesson from some guy in the NFL that played at La.Tech which was close to his HS in Shreveport.

  • I see that Collins of Tulsa won for LBs. He may still be on the board when we pick. And there is my Aggie TE up for Mackey Award, the soph I was telling you about for 2022 draft was in the final 3 along with two Juniors. Pitts deserved it and I doubt he will still be there past top 10. And Safety Moehrig won the DBs award. He might still be there for us, a big "Might" though. Surprised he got it over Surtain.

    Unless we are looking at the next Justin Tucker (I don’t know if that is the case maybe it is). 

    I would prefer to hold a workout on a windy May evening and take a free agent rookie or even a vet that can handle our stadium.

    I think a lot of these are  poor choices....or just cop outs. 

  • I see that Collins of Tulsa won for LBs. He may still be on the board when we pick. And there is my Aggie TE up for Mackey Award, the soph I was telling you about for 2022 draft was in the final 3 along with two Juniors. Pitts deserved it and I doubt he will still be there past top 10. And Safety Moehrig won the DBs award. He might still be there for us, a big "Might" though. Surprised he got it over Surtain.

    Zaven Collins - he's that good. I was watching him keenly in their last game - and he didn't get to do much. Made a few tackles, once went into the backfield on a rush - he was on the right side, the qb rolled out to his right, and Collins forced him out of bounds on the far side of the field. I was hoping to get a better look at the bowl game, but nope.

       What was frustrating - the opposing team ran away from his side most of the game. It was amazing. They threw downfield, or ran up the middle, or to their right. In other games, Collins reminds me a little bit of Clay Mathews. Mathews is 6'3", 255. Collins is 6'4", 260, and has excellent instincts. And he plays sideline to sideline.

       Collins just this past season, had 4 sacks, 2 fumbles, 4 interceptions, and 2 TD's.

    he can really move too -

  • having said that, I am also keenly interested in

    Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah

    "The next great hybrid player, Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah blurs the line between linebacker and safety. Notre Dame was as comfortably lining him up in the slot as they were rushing him off the edge. A Swiss-army-knife, his blend of length at 6’1″ and speed make his floor tremendous.

    However, weighing in at only 216 pounds, I do have some concerns about whether or not he can be an impact between the tackles in the NFL. How Notre Dame uses Owusu-Koramoah this year will likely dictate whether or not the NFL views him more as a safety or a linebacker.

    Explosion like this is unfair form the a linebacker spot. Notre Dame’s Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah(#6) gets after the quarterback in an instant off the weakside blitz. pic.twitter.com/sJV0HtXFxL

    ****************************************

       just my opinion, he could be an all pro safety, obviously a bit light for full time lb. Bolton - has been mentioned - he's very good, but smallish - 6', 235. I like a bigger lb. and very fast at the same time. Not easy to find.

    Owusu-Koramoah is just amazing. He is on my early list for the Browns first round draft pick.  but it's way too early.

    ******************************************

    "As expected, Notre Dame All-America linebacker Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah has declared for the 2021 NFL Draft. A two-year starter at rover, Owusu-Koramoah had back-to-back brilliant seasons for the Irish defense. The Hampton, Va. native racked up 142 tackles ... "

    **********************************************

       However - there is a good bit of talk - about the broncos drafting Owusu with their overall ninth pick.

       dammit.

    tia's gonna hate this, but...

    In Mathews' day we ran a pure 3-4 and at Tulsa they run a 3-3-5. So I have to ask... is he a fit for us?

    Granted... we can change our D to use him, but we are going to need to sign/draft with that in mind.
