Buffalo Junction Posted March 15, 2019 Share Posted March 15, 2019 13 hours ago, glazeduck said: Oliver, to me, feels like the NFL's version of Marcus Fizer. NBA scouts thought Fizer was too big and strong for small forwards to guard and too quick and athletic for power forwards... Instead, he was too small and weak to do anything against PFs and too slow/not skilled enough to beat SFs... Oliver's first step is exciting, but to me, I'm worried that he's too small to constantly contribute in the trenches AND stay healthy, yet not athletic enough to play on the edge. I think you're drafting him hoping and praying that he can become Melvin Ingram, but Ingram dominated against vastly superior competition and STILL took 4 years to emerge into much of anything... Oliver is the John Randle/Charles Barkley gamble. I’m not sure that he has enough elite traits to dominate the competition at the NFL level. As a smaller guy he needs elite strength and quickness coupled with hand fighting technique. I really wanted to see him at the combine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laughing Coffin Posted March 15, 2019 Share Posted March 15, 2019 Wilkins is the safer of the two. I’d be very happy with Wilkins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turk71 Posted March 15, 2019 Share Posted March 15, 2019 Wilkins at 15 with another 2nd rndr , that's my dream draft Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GimmeSomeProcess Posted March 15, 2019 Share Posted March 15, 2019 I’ve said it for months he seems like a McBeane type of player. Exactly what we want in culture and has the size and production Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
