We are another pass rusher and playmaker in the secondary away from being a great D. Yeah, if Keke can return I agree you can work him and Chinn into a variety of packages. I’d almost push Keke towards a WLB instead of SS role ala THOMAS Davis. They have similar measurables and Keke has the frame to add 10-15 pounds if needed, which he may not need. He plays like a LB at what 220? They lost him as 211 but he looks bigger jazzyburrell 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s 203 with a 36+ vert and ran a sub 4.5 forty and his game speed is amazing. He returned kicks even. Is he a reach? I’m not so sure that he is. The draft geeks in media are often quite wrong in guys like this. Heck, Keke was considered a reach for us jazzyburrell, ahawkins, Francis York Morgan and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He will lose what agility he has I’d play him at LBer right now at that weight he is now. Still starting SS for me if fit enough.Tone setter we need guys like Neal,drop Rico into NB draft Winfield Jnr and we rolling. Not many RBs are going to go through Neal he’ll cut them in half.

I'll have to go back and watch but I didn't remember Kazee having a lot in the regular season. Preseason I don't remember as much. I guess my bigger point on Kazee is he seemingly is lacking in football I.Q./awareness back there. For every intercept he grabs...and god knows we need turnovers for this D to hold offenses back...he makes 3 boneheaded plays or misses his assignments in coverage.

AutumnEffect Posted April 5, 2020 Share Posted April 5, 2020 I think Delpit may be that dude at FS. If tackling proficiency is the knock on him, why try and play him as a box guy? Just put him in space and he makes plays. I'd love to see the Falcons trade back from 16 and up in the second to secure FS like Delpit or Winfield + a LB like Murray or Baun.

quotemokc Posted April 6, 2020 Share Posted April 6, 2020 It is strange that Quinns defense in Seattle had a big reliance on a great FS in Earl Thomas but he has been content to stick with the less athletic Allen all these years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I agree, but I was responding to him saying that a 5'9 tall safety isn't worthy of a mid 1st round pick. Winfield Jr. is a big playmaker in his own right though. He would've been more noticed if he had went to an SEC school instead of Minnesota. OrthoPTSD 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know he surprised with his combine time...but the tape doesn’t really scream a 4.45 guy. Im just not sure he has the range to frequently play in a Cover 1 shell against NFL receivers. I could be wrong, though. But there is no doubt is instincts and IQ are off the charts DonOfThemBirds 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
