COMBINE

Before last season I had Highsmith as a 6-8 sack type of guy, he started the season kind of slow, but he played better as the season went on and finished with 6 sacks.

 

year 3 seems to be the breakout year where he can react instead of think first. i'd love to see that from him. it would help TJ as well and visa versa.

 

he was hurt early in season and still played through injury.

 

Yessss!

 

That's what I'm praying for, but....it's what I wanted last year....So no big surprise. I really haven't zeroed in on one yet. Waiting for more information.

 

Jordan Davis at 341lbs ran a 4.82

 

how big are his hands? how's his deep ball?

 

there are a lot of good corners this year, not sure we would need to go round 1 to get a good one.

 

My Lord, that is crazy! That would be like getting hit with a truck.

 

That's great
Because I was being smart a$$ earlier with a friend, and said the same.

 

Exactly. So Much talent on display so far. Defense has always been My favorite 2 watch.

 

I just hope We go Defense for sure in the 1st round. JMO

 

Not I. Defense Defense Defense. LoL. We can throw OL in somewhere around 2nd ,or 3rd. LoL.
J/K. If OL I won't complain.....because it's needed. I'm just a Defense type of guy,and that whole 24th in the league kills My soul, and 2 see dudes rushing on our Defense willy-nilly ....even on the 1st drives of games it Drives Me Crazy. Hmm
Now that reminds Me of a Fine Young Cannibals song.
Sorry. Everything Is music 2 Me. LoL

 

OK. So far I only have like 29 guys I want 2 draft. LoL, and My favorites are still coming tomorrow. LoL. We need more Draft picks.

 

People tend to undervalue the importance of Chemistry between Defensive Backs; doubly so in Safeties. Not saying in @S.T.D is in the wrong for disliking Terrell Edmunds but the fact is that he is only 24, has gotten better every year and knows the defense well enough to operate functionally in. Among the more important FA's that need to be brought back, Terrell Edmunds is one of them despite the negativity he receives.


He may have some limits but his strengths are too difficult to ignore; in a draft where is technically only two Strong Safety candidates to take over for him in Lewis Cine and Jalen Pitre (do not sleep on him). For the Steelers, assuming Terrell does leave.. those are the two best options; Nick Cross from Maryland being a Wild Card. The rest of the Safety Class are either heavily Nickel based, Pure Safety or Single High at that.

 

Andrew Booth at #20 would be EXTREMELY DIFFICULT to pass up on though. There is not a better well rounded corner than him in the class from both the athletic and fundamental side; a pseudo unicorn of a player. For that matter, I expect him to be long gone anyway; top 10 grade for me on him.


If he can clean up some of those inconsistencies in his instincts... watch out.


Agree with the rest though.

 

shore up the inside linebacker spot and the safeties don't have to always cover up for them.

stiner didn't look lost last year in preseason. stiner has a year in the system and may be looked at as a replacement. again killebrew wouldn't cost much and be an insurance policy for stiner. killebrew was starting to get more time towards the latter part of the year. he also plays special teams. i am not against edmunds as much as many though.

 

How good did he look running in his underwear?

 

pretty good evidently.
