Ndamukong Suh, 6-4/305
Defensive Tackle Nebraska
He's from Portland Oregon. I always wondered why he went clear the hell out to Nebraska.
He's from Portland Oregon. I always wondered why he went clear the hell out to Nebraska.
Here's something of an explanation:
By the end of his junior year, Suh was getting scholarship offers from several Division I schools, including Oregon and Oregon State. After attending the Stanford Combine the summer before his senior year, he had offers from the entire Pacific-10 Conference, as well as Miami, Mississippi State and Nebraska.
One of the primary reasons he chose Nebraska was because of its highly regarded engineering program and the focus the athletic department has on academics for its student-athletes. In December, Suh will graduate with a bachelor's degree in construction management, completing the five-year program in four and a half.
Should football not work out, Suh could easily fall back on a number of career options, including taking over his father's equipment business in Portland.

Who are some of the top corners coming out next year? We really need a big corner opposite wright that can lay a lick on somebody and help out in the rungame. Any ideas on a big physical corner in the 2nd or 3rd round?

- Joe Haden, Florida (5'11", 190 lbs.)*
- Brandon Ghee, Wake Forest (6'0", 190 lbs.)
- Perrish Cox, Oklahoma State (6'0", 198 lbs.)
- Kareem Jackson, Alabama (5'11", 192 lbs.)*
- Donovan Warren, Michigan (6'0", 185 lbs.)*
- Jerome Murphy, South Florida (6'1", 185 lbs.)
- Akwasi Owusu-Ansah, Indiana (PA) (6'1", 195 lbs.)
- Patrick Robinson, Florida State (5'11", 194 lbs.)
Also, there are smaller corners who will get drafted high: guys like Kentucky's Trevard Lindley (5'11", 180 lbs.) and Cal's Syd'Quan Thompson (5'9", 191 lbs.). Not sure either one's a good fit for what we need: though Lindley does have borderline shutdown corner potential, he isn't a consistent tackler.

Good stuff in this thread guys..it sucks that we are so into the draft in sept/october and soo much will change in the next month or two...but one thing will not sway me...and i know we need a QB but Suh is the one..we gotta make that happen
i do not feel as strong about Mccoy DE (Oklahoma) not mccoy QB (texas)...
ALO..you think they draft QB in round 2? if so who do you project still hanging around

With Mays and Berry so good at the top (although I could argue against Mays, he'll be there), some good DBs will drop. A guy like Kurt Coleman, who has been the best player on Ohio State's defense this year, even if he's overshadowed by Gibson, Heyward, and Rolle.
-
Well, if he doesn't make it you can use his jersey as an eyechart in the trainer's room.

Gerald McCoy was great last week against Texas: he had two tackles for loss, a sack, and five quarterback hurries. He disappeared against Miami and Baylor, but he's an elite prospect in his own right. Very Warren Sapp-ish.
Suh's a better projection to 3-4 end because of his great combination of strength, tenacity, and athleticism. But if we were looking for an explosive one-gap penetrator, I'd probably take McCoy over Suh.
McCoy probably will have more career sacks; Suh will clog more running lanes.

Sounds like we could use both!

Yes i watched the Texas game (had to turn it from the buckeye cluster F)
he looked solid...i wouldnt complian..id prefer SUH as you mentioned blowing up the run...id prefer to get a fast athletic quarterback killa on the opposite side of WImbley in addition to SUH...good luck right?

Did anybody see Mizzou vs. Nebraska last night? This guy was all over the place, I would really like to here Alo's thought's on this guy. Here is a scouting report on him.
Ndamukong Suh, 6-4/305
Defensive Tackle Nebraska
Ndamukong Suh Scouting Report
By Matt McGuire
Strengths:
Very big frame
Outstanding muscle definition
Good lower body strength
Elite junior year production
Very active; above average motor
Nice second effort
Good agility
Takes on multiple blockers; run clogger
Highly athletic
Grades out well in chase (pursuit) tackling
Disengages from linemen to make tackles
Powerful
Collapses pocket
Backfield penetrator
Good instincts
Explosive off snap
Great leadership and reportedly solid work ethic
Solid all-around skill set
Good amount of upside
Versatile; can play 1-, 3-, and 5-techniques.
Weaknesses:
Occasionally gets too high in stance; leads to being washed
Leverage technique could be more consistent
Could develop more of a pass-rush repertoire
Multiple knee injuries and surgeries
One-year wonder?
Summary: Suh is an outstanding prospect for the 2010 NFL Draft class because there is so much to like about him. He can play in multiple schemes, which NFL general managers love. His durability could end up being a huge problem dependent on doctors' reviews at NFL Combine like Glenn Dorsey. If he can stay healthy and keep the production up as a senior, he should be a first-round lock. Name pronounced IN-DOM-AH-KEN SOO. "Ndamukong" means "House of Spears" in a Cameroon language.
Player Comparison: Richard Seymour. Seymour and Suh have that great length, explosiveness, and strength that you want in a defensive tackle with the ability to play various schemes.

Thanks BernietheKid! Great stuff!
They were really talking this kid up on the local sports radio show here in Nashville. Another stud who's name I did not catch is supposed to be a LBer for the Arizona State Sun Devils. Allegedly not just good but they think he's gonna be the closest thing to a Ray Lewis type of enforcer as it will probably ever get. That might be a little much to live up to but it at least it means he's turning heads and probably clearing heads on a weekly basis. Of course I don't have his name. I'll see if I can get it sometime soon and post up a new thread about him.

I want to keep this near the top so we do not lose focus on our first round pick...Suh.
Wishful thinking i know..but im trying to keep some positives going!!!!
Hah.
-
Man, this guy looks legit.
How sad is it that what I look forward to most is drafting guys?
Sigh...
-
I dont know how many of you people watched the Big 12 Championship but this guy almost beat Texas by himself
This guy is a Defensive Tackle
Suh had 12 tackles, 7 tackles for loss, 4.5 sacks, and 1 quarterback hurry against TEXAS
Suh leads his team with 82 tackles, 23 tackles for loss, 12 sacks, 1 interception, 10 passes broken up, 24 quarterback hurries, 1 forced fumble, and 3 blocked kicks. Suh has accomplished this despite often being double and triple-teamed by opposing offensive lines.
This guy is going to be a beast in the NFL
Hes 64 300 pounds
He reminds me alot of Kevin Williams of the Vikings
