FalconsIn2012 35,160 Posted March 28, 2020 Share Posted March 28, 2020 This draft could have been great if he passed on Igbinoghene (who I like) and drafted Winnfield.

DonOfThemBirds 17,040 Posted March 28, 2020 Share Posted March 28, 2020 I noticed the writer negatively mentioned the Fowler signing when giving his thoughts on both the 1st and 2nd round picks lol. Saying the Fowler signing may not work out and the other saying that the Falcons overpaid. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Debo was a round 2 pick, many thought 3rd was the right spot for him. He also had a true position. If Chaisson is being seen as a straight pass rusher, and the second best one, go for it. If he is gonna be a ‘chess piece’ that does everything good but nothing great, he isn’t worth 16th pick. Just ask the Bears...the Leonard Floyd comparison doesn’t get me excited...another guy who went high, was used all over because he wasn’t great at rushing the passer (which WAS why he was taken high) and didn’t even see out the rookie deal. that said, you can make an argument against every player at 16, so this is a debate with no end.

You could see him growing game by game. Tell me, how do you think he did against Clemson? Your answer will say a lot. 2) He uses his length incredibly well as you can see it in the precision of his run fits and when he uses a long arm to convert speed to power. Ditto his athleticism. This critique doesn't even make sense. 3) If you'd just said he needs to work on honing the execution of moves in his repertoire or that his counter game is unrefined, I'd agree, but you had to go and say he's worse than Takk in this area. Bruh. He already uses long arm, dip and rip, inside and outside spins, along with different head and hand fakes. Those watching him could see him get better not just from 2018's injury shortened season to 2019, but DURING 2019 too. It feels more like a matter of time given his drive.

He is NOT awful against the run, he's actually the best 250 lb dude coming out this year imho. And he's so disciplined too. It's kind of crazy tbh, it feels like he puts more work into his run game than his pass rush. I love it. 5) Plays too high? Non-existent? The too high thing is crazy, his leverage appears great for a dude his size...regular stood up 300+ lb guys in the SEC and squeezed gaps. The non-existent thing feels like a product of box score scouting, otherwise I don't know what you mean. He flies all over the field. 6) Doesn't remind me of Hunter at all. Served a completely different role in LSU's defense. He reminds me more of Jamie Collins or Bruce Irvin. Add to that his age, leadership, football character, and I think he can be better than both. Like look, if you'd criticized his body type, or that he's a tweener, fine - that's a difference in philosophy at most. And if you criticized his production or injury history, fine - people weigh things differently. And there are things you could criticize about his play too, and I'd give them credit. Like, that he didn't have more production despite the defense being up on opponents so often. Or how he understands counter timing but seems more like he's playing patty cake sometimes, not rushing with enough of a plan. Even saying he gets physically overwhelmed occasionally or is mostly a projection to get better makes sense. But your critiques (imho) are just copy paste Beasley critiques that are applied to almost every smaller pass rusher that ever comes out now. I just don't see it, yknow? There are guys like @KRUNKuno who hated Beasley coming out but love Chaisson. KRUNKuno, Falcon from E and kiwifalcon 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

We can have a difference of opinion, and that’s not to say I don’t think Chaisson can become something, but I’m not using my biggest draft chip on that when I’ve got 2 years of peak MR2/Julio left...I’d rather get Brown/Kinlaw using my 1st and 3rd and then get Baun in the 2nd...if he doesn’t fall then I take the best off ball LB or DB available, extend Mack and sign a vet FA, and draft a developmental guy in the 4th... Brown/Kinlaw, Baun, BPA at CB/S is the most bang for our buck at this point to really help our defense...

Brown hasn’t progressed into a consistent pass rusher Kinlaw relies on a singular move for the most part and is very RAW yet you see Chaissons versatility as a weakness. Chess piece is what your getting when you get a Chaisson to me this is where the value is in drafting a guy like him at 16. KRUNKuno 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Doug Carlton 917 Posted March 29, 2020 Share Posted March 29, 2020 Not crazy about the Darrynton Evans pick in the 4th or the QB in the 7th but love the rest of it. A solid draft. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
HASHBROWN3 16,636 Posted March 30, 2020 Share Posted March 30, 2020 If he can plug in, stay healthy & be allowed to shoot gaps while he refines those pash rush moves & hands, his potential is as high as anyone in the draft. Id be fine with him at 16 but he may not get to us without a move up & that bugs me more than anything. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
