Clark Kent™ Posted May 24, 2014 Share Posted May 24, 2014 I agree with you OP. Thats definitely something that puzzles me. I haven't been impressed with him from what I have seen. But for us to trade up to select him would make anyone believe that we must really have wanted him. Maybe he projects as a really good ILB in our 3-4. Who knows, but for now I don't see much to be excited about. Also keeping in mind he was a mid-late rd pick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trubirdfan4life Posted May 24, 2014 Share Posted May 24, 2014 There's plenty to say about this draft, and most of it has been said - WTF is a Dezmen Southward, etc...I honestly thought we had a GREAT draft. Matthews is... Matthews, Hageman should and could have been a first round pick (he will beast). I feel like Devonta could be our Ray Rice. ****, I think Tyler Starr could end up being a Worrilow-like surprise.But the biggest question I had of the whole draft -Why the **** did we trade up for Marquis Spruill? I've seen highlights on everyone, I called Bartu and Worrilow to be stars when I first saw their highlights. But this guy I don't get. I saw nothing truly impressive in his game at all - his biggest trait seems to be just running fast at the QB if he has a straight and clear path to him... Is there something I'm missing here? Any 'Cuse fans that know something I don't? I just don't get why we'd waste 2 picks to trade up for him.Spruill, a 6-foot-1, 224-pound linebacker, runs the 40-yard dash in 4.52 seconds and owns a 37 1/2-inch vertical jump. He hang cleans 385 pounds (a number Hicks says will rise the next time the Orange test for maximum weight) and bench presses 405 pounds.
