I've seen other reports that view him as fringe Day 1 pick. I've also seen some that have him in the 5th or later. I think it depends on whether you believe his pass rush ability will translate. I personally think it will. You were right Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deester11 Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 There's this too: Jeff Cavanaugh of The Athletic DFW wrote on defensive tackle prospects other than Vea and Payne (subscription). He likes Senat. Senat is more than just a strong guy at the point of attack. He’s the big guy that also has some initial quickness to penetrate. One of the things that I notice with big defensive lineman is whether they are finishers. Senat is a finisher. A lot of the big guys are able to disrupt plays, make the QB move off of his spot, make a runner change direction, etc. Not a lot of them have the athleticism and football IQ to be in the right spot, track the ball and then finish when they get close. They’re in pursuit of people who are faster than them, and it’s tough. Senat put himself in those positions and has the burst to finish plays. That’s how a defensive tackle ends a season with 66 tackles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you an Falcons insider?!! I don't watch a ton of college ball so in the off-season I just spend a good bit of time watching a lot of different players. I try to watch just about everyone at Falcons' positions of need. I saw a few clips of him and was impressed. Especially since the buzz was nonexistent. Got me to dig more and find everything I could. I ended up getting hyped and just made the post to see if anyone else agreed. So glad that Quinn and TD agreed, I think we got a high floor, high ceiling player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

celtiksage Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 He had quite a few looks on draft visits too, and 2 other teams in the NFC South checked him out (Saints and Carolina if I remember correctly). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diggable Birds Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 (edited) Good Call bro I never heard of him before today. I thought we’d go Settle. We need to get RJ McIntosh from Miami next. Maybe a OLB not sold on Duke. Edited April 28, 2018 by Diggable Birds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wardog357 Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 A lot of people don't understand how difficult it is for taller OL players to handle shorter very powerful DT's. The knock on Grady was his height. Grady uses his height as an advantage against much taller lineman. Weight wise...they are very close. It's very tiring for a taller guy to try and keep pad height with a shorter guy for leverage reasons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beef Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 Deadrin is going to look at Grady and go, "Holy crap, I need to hit the gym and do some ab and chest work." LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL......it's really hard. I was a Defensive tackle and those short running backs woulddrived me nuts. LOL.....I was able to get pad high but that's what it took when they come full speed through the line. It was a challenge. But I'm only 6'1 myself.

ShadyRef Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 12 hours ago, Knight of God said: Third GREAT PICK! Dude is violent! After checking out his highlights, I also realize he has enough potential to be a good pass rusher. He was not only collapsing the pocket many times but he also displayed enough suddenness to beat his guy. If only he played with a decent secondary, most of those QB hits might have translated to sacks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
