Grady is a monster

[Grrrillapmpn Inc.® 7,156]

Can't wait for this season.

He's a beast. There are better pass rushers in the league and there are better run stoppers, but I'm not sure there is a better all round defensive tackle in the league right now.

[Mid-Nite-Toker 6,094]

SMDH, should be SB MVP imho.

Glad we have him.

[HASHBROWN3 11,112]

Probably the most underrated DT in the league.

A fifth rounder!!! What???

[Monolith2001 1,631]

Dude's upper body is just one huge pallet of muscle.  

[FalconAge 2,080]

Not an ounce of flab to be found

Grady is a monster and hugely underrated, but that's a bit much.

John Randle lite in terms of build and abilities. Hoping for 2.0, which is a real possibility.

Beast. His stats don't tell the whole story with the effect he has on this defense.

Hence, the John Randle comparison.

I can't think of many, if any, tackles in this league that can play both the 1 tech and 3 tech equally at such a high level.

[athell 10,393]

Grady is so awesome.  What a pick that was.  DTs dont get love unless they are like Donald levels of good but man Grady is the truth...one of my favorite players on the roster.

[Flying Falcon 4,961]

Grady is a man-child.

[Falconsin2012 4,938]

Pay that man his money.  It’s tragic he played for $600,000 last year.  Better be no TATF whining when his deal is inked.  This man has earned every single penny

i remember we all thought the Falcons should have taken him in the 2nd round!

I think he dropped due to his size more than anything.

Woulda been a first rounder if the league could have foreseen his impact

Funny to see grown men lust after Grady! 

I am impressed that he doesn't have much of a gut for a DTackle that is 300+lbs.

[Mescalito 443]

good grief he's an animal!

[g-dawg 29,288]

Lance Zierlan's draft write-up on Grady was pretty dayum accurate - and he had him as 2nd rounder:

• 6'1"HEIGHT
• 32 3/8"ARM LENGTH
• 304LBS.WEIGHT
• 10"HANDS

ANALYSIS

STRENGTHS

 Jarrett lacks ideal size for his position but he makes up for it with outstanding quickness, leverage and effort. Against the run, he has the foot quickness to shoot gaps and disrupt and he can stack single blocks at the point of attack. If he gets caught by angle blocks, he lacks the sand to avoid being washed down the line of scrimmage. As a pass rusher, he has an array of quick hand moves and he is relentless with his motor. He should start very early in his NFL career and be a disruptive player versus both the run and pass.

WEAKNESSES

 Undersized, despite his well-built frame. Relies on initial burst off snap to generate pass rush. Plays hard but will wear down in the fourth quarter. Might not be able to carry too much more good weight on his frame.

DRAFT PROJECTION

 Round 2

SOURCES TELL US

 "Grady will take you on a ride when he gets into you. I think grades on him will really vary since the only real fit for him is in a 1-gap 4-3 defense on the nose. Teams will beat him up over his size, but someone is going to get a good football player with him." -- NFC North scout

NFL COMPARISON

 Earl Mitchell

BOTTOM LINE

 Jarrett is built like a refrigerator, but he's hardly a stationary player. He lacks the overall size to be considered as a nose by most base 3-4 teams, but he's a perfect shade-nose fit for teams looking for a disruptive force in a one-gap, penetrating front.

Didn’t say he was or wasn’t, just asked a simple question

[notthatcool 1,971]

He might be my favorite Falcon on current roster.
