WiscoFalcon Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 (edited) 1st Round Options DeMarcus Walker, DE, Florida State - Sr. 6'2" 273 lbs. Would be a very nice fit in the Bennett role opposite Beasley. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2hW1W4OEPpI&t=54s Caleb Brantley, DT, Florida - rJr. 6'2" 297 lbs. Florida connection, interesting to see if Quinn likes him. Love his quickness off the ball. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FCG3gt-QgVw&t=91s 2nd Round Option Desmond King, FS, Iowa - Sr. 5'10" 203 lbs. Corner at Iowa, but lack of elite speed can produce a very nice transition to FS at the next level. Don't let height fool you, Earl Thomas is also 5'10".

Abeasley27 Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 watching the video of walker, at the 1:50ish mark, there's a play where he explodes with a straight line and the burst he shows there is extremely fast I just fell even more in love with the thought of him being opposite of Vic!!

Psychic Gibbon Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 Walker can be good when he gets off the snap well so he can take full advantage of his strength and swim move. What I cannot overlook with him, however, is that he is consistently slow of the snap which makes him easy to block and move out of the way. I also don't know if he just stops trying or if he's gassed but he also appears to let up on a lot of plays. He's the type of player I want to like but I just can't.

Kid picks, hits, punt returns, tackles and prays in the end zone--quality kid. KOG had him in 2nd round mock. Tremendous upside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want to like him but he's not a first rounder IMO. Too much of a tweener without the traits needed to be a good edge player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sobeit Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 (edited) It is still a little early to know where a lot of these guys will come off the board. Right now someone I like that should go in the range we will be drafting in is Chris Wormley DT Michigan rSr 6-5 302 He can play DE and DT. Here is the blurb SI has about him in their DT rankings. It is from this article. http://www.si.com/2017-nfl-draft-position-rankings Wormley is listed here despite playing mostly end for Michigan because his size and powerful style fits—he can help set the edge on early downs, then kick inside to pass rush if his next team so chooses.

If DQ and the brass find a DT they like in the first, I am all for it, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
