Jigglypuff Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 worrilow reminds me of a smart dude that just happens to play football, and he has the physical tools and dedication to developing those tools to compete at a high level Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Sarcomere Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Personally thought Bartu had the better season between the two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FalconAge Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 On hard knocks during the slo mo of the Oklahoma drill he looked so intense and focused, like he wanted to go to war with the man in front of him and he was going to be the victorious gladiator. He might have been whipped in that drill but he certainly looked the part before the start. It's nice to see some intensity from all of our guys.He didn't get whipped, they cut up the footage between him and another linebacker who was being washed out, maybe Dobbins or Spruill?Smith certainly looks the part though. He is lean and chiseled in a way that few of our guys are.The person he should study/try to emulate is James Harrison.Like Smith, Harrison was undrafted, lacked ideal height (6 ft. tall), and ran a slow 40. 5.2 vs. Smith's 4.9. Harrison was cut more than once, but kept coming back and eventually went on to become one of the greatest linebackers in Steelers history.Unlike Harrison, Smith is apparently a sweetheart off the field.https://www.youtube....h?v=JcRxcaIv8a0Harrison on the other hand, is a psychopath, as viewers of last year's Hard Knocks can attest. Fun fact: Harrison estimates he spends 400 to 600k each year just to maintain his body. He does diet, supplements, daily massage, hyperbaric chamber, and everything else you can imagine.

I absolutely hate saying an UDFA before preseason is going t be anything. But with smith, I just see a "dude" factor. A swagger and intensity that translates well to a successfull nfl career. He does remind me of a young Harrison in that way. Great news is plenty of good OLBs that pass rush have been UDFAs or late rounders. But where I'm reserved in my pronouncement of his being a nfl caliber player is can he he marry the "dude " factor with production. Simply put you can be a bully but if you can't reach the QB you're just a bully. He does interest me, greatly. To contrast him to an existing player, I'll use Kroy. Kroy has this bad azz reputation. But you don't see that in his game play. In his game play you see an average role player. No swagger. No I'm getting in the head of OL or QBs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ga_spider Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Trufant's INT and pass deflection against RedskinsTrufant was a first round pick. Worrilow was a rookie free agent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NOVAFalconFan Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Personally thought Bartu had the better season between the two.This is not correct. However, both were bright spots last year and will hopefully build on what they did. Not interested in tearing one down to build the other up, though.

Godzilla1985 Posted August 8, 2014 Author Share Posted August 8, 2014 Tuggle when I first got to that VI area I was standing there next to the door where the players come out and the door opened and Worrilow walked out slowly with this intense look on his face as he scanned the practice field. Looking at him the theme to The Dark Night started playing in my head. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duff_Man Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 I love Worrilow, but if we thought that then why wouldn't we use a 7th on him? Seems like an unnecessary risk if we were that high on him.This logic makes no sense. If they didn't have to use a draft pick then why would they?

delaigle Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 On attitude alone, he may just be what we need. IF he can make the team...I like the guys attitude etc but yea it will be hardsomeone???? "released" a 4-2-5 depth chart a couple of days agonoteRDE Bierman, Osi, Maponga, J Smith, AgnewLDE Babs, Mass, Goodman, Starr. MayJust not going to be easy to crack into thosewhen they normally keep about 5/6 DEs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HASHBROWN3 Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Pulling for Smith the same way I pulled for Wor and Bartu. I think he has a real shot especially since Spruill went down... I believe Worrilow is special too. He hasn't overcome his odds because he was lucky. Go back and look at his film... Just watch him and don't get all caught up in the small school hype. He was a fing beast! But what makes him so dangerous is that he is extremely smart & driven. He refuses to fail. I cannot wait to see him and Bartu behind our new Dline.

bigbabygrady Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 For Smith to make the team he's gotta be an ace on special teams Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
delaigle Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 This logic makes no sense. If they didn't have to use a draft pick then why would they?thing is if he was drafted he belongs to ATLBUT if non drafted He's FREE to sign with anyone --Falcons are lucky he decided to sign with themof course I do not know if he had other offers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndySG Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 What in the heck are you talking about?I'm assuming I have completely misunderstood this then. I thought he was saying that one of our scouts said this PRIOR to us getting him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JC Falcon Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 I don't think anyone thought he would play that way until he was in live action and Falcons realized they had a "gamer" on the field. No stopwatch measures LB diagnosing a play and blowing it up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FalconAge Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 He seems really intelligent. I wish that former falcon Chuck Smith (who worked with Strahan and Osi, practically MADE Haynesworth) could work with him on his pass rush repertoire.
