JiveAF Posted February 1, 2016 Share Posted February 1, 2016 Deone Buccannon, Kam Channcellor, Mark Barron etc are guys who are basically in the box to stop the run but makes you lose no speed on defense. Basically all three are "fast and physical" in the draft, there are some guys who fit that mold and I truly think we should grab one of them. Who do you think could fit that role?

The O.D.B Posted February 1, 2016 Share Posted February 1, 2016 I think Mark Barron may be a good fit. In the Draft I see Cash and Cravens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
datboilando Posted February 1, 2016 Share Posted February 1, 2016 What about Miles Killebrew from Southern Utah? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like Killbrews size and physicality but I've been a bit underwhelmed by his tape. He did okay in the senior bowl but if he has a good combine I still view him as a 3rd-4th round pick. I'd love him in that area though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LookAboutFalcon Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 Deion Jones, one of the fastest linebackers in this draft, problem is his weight and how he will hold up vs the run. People are comparing him to Telvin Smith, but I would hold off on that type of praise, there are not that many type of Telvin Smith players playing at a high level in the NFL.

Romfal Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 I feel like we are trying to use Akeem King in a similar role, He is super raw still, but we saw a bit of that with him covering TE's this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These guys biggest appeal isn't fast and physical. That doesn't distinguish them from other defenders in the league. What makes them stand out from average to good is their ability to tackle which reduces extra yards. They are also good at being in good position and angles. That is a big trust factor amongts one another. We really need a smart ss and a punishing lb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would not shock me if Akeem King is our backup SS with a chance to compete for the starting role after Willy Mo is cut this off-season...Ishmael will be in competition along with either a FA or draft pick... As for the hybrid S/LB in this draft class...I don't think Jones can cover as well as players like Cash and Cravens, so I'm not sure I would have him as a hybrid...he is fast...but I also don't see Cash as a player that drop down as a LB... I like Cravens a lot as a weakside LB or SS in the box...he is the most versatile player out of the bunch...I am interested to see what he runs...USC players are notoriously slower than expected... I'm starting to think this could happen: 1. Emmanuel Ogbah / Shaq Lawson LDE 2. Su'a Cravens OLB 3. Nick Martin OC (more wishful thinking) 4.

Abeasley27 Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 I like Cash a LOT. Really hope he is our 2nd round target. It makes so much since to take a guy who plays/diagnoses plays as fast as he does and can break on the ball like he does Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ltstorm2 Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 Cravens needs to become an Atlanta Falcon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
