Couldn't agree more on Espenesa. First words out of my mouth when we took him was Shaq Lawson.
He will help set the edge and likely be a more productive run stopper than sack artist. Nothing wrong with another Shaq in round 2. We needed youth at DE added the group.
Moss at 86 was the best remaining RB by far. I wanted Dobbins at 54 but I do like Moss at 86. He will be our Chris Ivory for us before all the wear and tear. He's a true banger who loves contact. One of the top RB in broken tackles and yards after contact he should really help us in the red zone and late in games wearing down the opponent.
People get caught up in his 40 but his tape shows a much faster guy than his 40 at the combine. His tape was probably my favorite to watch this year much like Singletary's was for Beane last year.
I can't find the tweet atm, but there was one of Moss running the 40 again recently in a field fully healthy and his 40 was much better. Might have been in the 4.4 range just can't recall .
Solid picks for us in rounds 2 and 3
One draft tendency is we take productive players regardless of their combine numbers.
Singletary, Espenesa , Moss.
Which is good because it means they value tape and production over the underwear Olympics.
Listing off their WR changes nothing for me. I'm well aware of the group. It's a bunch of WR3 and castoffs. A complete misfit group. They need someone with Alpha WR1 traits to help Darnold
