Shaffer25 Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 We need to trade up for him late in the third if he is still there and our defense will be a ton better than last year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
k-train Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Supposedly he has an awful attitude, doesn't get along with teammates & coaches. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psychic Gibbon Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Character concerns. Came to the combine out of shape.Still want him here though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Falcons Rage Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 What exactly are the major character concerns?Failed drug test, showing up late to meetings, not taking the time to review film. Etc. I don't know how major those are. Whatever, I would still take him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lornoth Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 I think he has 1'st round talent. Character questions made him a 2'nd-3'rd. I doubt he makes it out of this round but if he does we have to take him next. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KRUNKuno Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Im a Dawson fan. He's a less agitated version of Burfict. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Herr Doktor Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 He is slow and slightly under sized. Some character questions. But we brought him in for a chat at least twice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndySG Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Eh. A lot of people thought he might go in the third. I think it's more strange that Diggy, Cann, Strong and Harold fell as far as they did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Falcon Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 I read on an analysis that he was compared to Jessie Tuggle. That makes me really want him in a Falcon's uniform. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rcky_mtn_falcon Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Here's the problem with Dawson, this is an excerpt from the NFL website draft profile.Weaknesses Not a wrap-up tackler and needs work in finishing blocks. Freelances and sometimes lacks discipline to maintain assignments. Instincts of a middle linebacker but likely too small for the position. Has to win with speed over power as a blitzer. Scouts are very worried about his personal character and say he's not beloved within the program. Questions have been raised about his commitment to the process. Not a film studier. Draft Projection Round 2 Sources Tell Us "He's an early round player without any question, but you don't have to dig around very deep or very long to realize that his personal character is going to be a major issue for some teams. My grade will be two rounds later than just the talent grade. It has to be factored in." -- AFC West regional scout"I'll make sure he stays alive in our building because he's that good." -- NFC national scout NFL ComparisonJessie TuggleBottom LineOutrageously productive linebacker with a nose for the ball. Dawson averages a tackle every 5.3 snaps and either caused or recovered a total of 8 turnovers during the 2014 season. Evaluators understand that Dawson has been a handful while at TCU and that will turn some teams off to him completely. Dawson can play inside in a 2-gap scheme but is a natural fit at 4-3 WILL.

Atlantafan21 Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 I read on an analysis that he was compared to Jessie Tuggle. That makes me really want him in a Falcon's uniform.He was also compared to Lavonte David. Made me want even more. Sucks that Cincy took him.
