MAJBobby Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 Special Teams Pick PRO'S: Hot motor, high effort linebacker & reliable contributor in four seasons at Clemson Team-orientated; puts a premium on taking care of his own responsibilities Plays within his capabilities, rarely exposing himself and giving up big plays Quick processor who reads the landscape and clicks into gear efficiently Savvy mover, able to stay clean whilst flowing behind the line of scrimmage Comfortable in pass coverage; able to hold a zone, anticipate traffic and undercut routes Embraces special teams duties Cons Modest physical profile – needs more lower body strength Lack of length impedes ability to avoid downblocks Easily manipulated out of his run fit, and isn’t able to affect lane choice Sure tackler, but not a powerful one.

UKBillFan Posted April 30, 2022 Author Share Posted April 30, 2022 Benford I had a knee-jerk reaction over but reading the reports I can see why they went with him. Tanuta (other than his size) and Spector I have no idea. A couple of very odd choices to see out our draft; it feels like there were better options available. But, hey, it's low sixth and seventh. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quessenberry can run block at RT. Ford had a vote of confidence by Beane last night. Foolish IMO Mancz has been a good UDFA story as a backup C but is hanging on Boettger is coming off of an Achilles and will probably not be able to play this year Quessenberry has played Guard in his career and can swing inside if need be. Greg Mancz can play both Center and Guard and started 4 games last season. There's been advances in Achilles rehabilitation in the last couple years that we've seen pay dividends in recent history with Cam Akers returning in 5 months just last season. We've brought in a much better O-Line coach than Cody Ford has ever had in Aaron Kromer. With the investment they paid in Ford, they'll likely like to see if Kromer can get more out of him. We're likely only going to keep 4 Guards and our Starting Guards are set for this season with the investments we put into Saffold and Bates.

Of course it's not for this year. They're just getting a jump on looking at some LB traits with Bernard & Spector. Next years draft is where they'll replace Tremaine somewhere in the first 2 rounds.

Think I'm at: Love Araiza and Shakir Like Elam and Cook (trading up and losing the fourth for Elam and slightly reaching for Cook takes me away from love. Still should add a lot to the team) OK with Bernard and Benford (Bernard was a reach in the third but balanced out by the Shakir pick; there were perceived better options on the board than Benford but he has a big upside) Disappointed with Tenuta and Spector (picks with a greater upside seemed available) Of course, reality could change all of this!

RichRiderBills Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 Pretty happy with this draft after " not loving " the Elam pick. Solid B+ on this one, could look great if Elam or Cook really hit. Both are going to get huge rookie opportunities. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
34-78-83 Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 Roc City - I think you're going to be shocked with how well Spencer Brown further develops into a dominant tackle that we probably can't even afford. There is literally nothing that points to him "getting lucky" and having a decent season last year when he was SOOO raw and unexposed to high level college talent. He's likely going to be dominant. He was a 3rd rounder too, not a low round pick aye. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
