We'll see how Williams does in that particular drill. I just don't see top 10 talent in Williams. Martin was taken with the 16th pick for the sake of reference.

The first site I researched had him listed as OG but that was an NFL projection. Still very curious to see what kind of strength numbers Williams puts up. I'm very reluctant to take a pure tactician without any particularly great physical traits in the top 10. I'd be much more comfortable with the pick if we happen to trade down, but that's a whole lot of variables. When I watch Martin, I see a mauler. I didn't see that even at the collegiate level from J Will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gonzo1105 Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 http://walterfootball.com/NFLHotPress/2_1_2019 Not a huge fan of walterfootball but some good tidbits if true that the Bills really like Lindstrom, Hockenson to go in the 20's, and 4 QB's in the top 15.

If Irv is just average athletically on top of being relatively tiny, that's probably a massive red flag, but it might not be a big deal that he's undersized if he has elite athleticism.

FeelingOnYouboty Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 Those numbers for Ed Oliver are amazing. There were rumors he'd be 6'0 275. So to come in at 6'2 287 is amazing. He's going to run a 4.6 and his 10 yard splits, cone, shuttle will break the spectrum. He might not even be there at #9 when we pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also think he grumbled a bit about that because he thought that wasn't his best position, and that's why his numbers weren't so great. I think you might have a disgruntled player if you drafted him to plug in at 3 tech. He might be OK with playing defensive end on run downs and moving inside on 3rd and long.

Gruden ordered an abrupt teardown. I don't see him using one of his high picks for a player who will be sitting out the season. With respect to Cleveland now that they have their franchise qb there is an urgency to immediately start winning.. There is even more urgency with Pittsburgh going through their internal combustion and with Baltimore starting a young unconventional qb. The time to win is now. Using a high pick to shelve a player for future use makes little sense for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm glad you follow college ball more closely than I do. That might be a good thing. He's a bit underweight for a tackle, but maybe he kept his weight down to play DE because that's where Harbaugh wanted him. He's got real good speed for a DT. He should have the frame to add some quality weight and retain most of his speed. He could be a monster at 3 tech. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He should have the frame to add some quality weight and retain most of his speed. He could be a monster at 3 tech. They played him there out of need, and because sometimes he was just so much more talented than the guy in front of him that it worked. When that was not the case, or if he was doubled, he doesn’t have the polish or technique that a Nick Bosa (as an example of someone who also played inside and outside but will play pass rusher in the NFL) has to beat the OL. He’s an athletic freak but not the 1v1 winner you would want on the edge. They moved him around in a rough 4-3. He sometimes got pulled for a edge rusher in obvious passing downs.the thing with their defense is that it is heavy blitz. They use the LBs and safeties a ton - this negatively impacts the stats of the DL. By contrast OSU for example did not blitz much and rushed the passer with the DL more often than not. (see sack #s for Dremont Jones). Chase Winovich was UM’s pure pass rusher and he was much more productive when Gary was playing. He was basically Ed Oliver’s role in their defense but was a bit more free. Edited March 1, 2019 by YoloinOhio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
