Terrible podcast with NFL scout Dave Te' Thomas

Da Stellars · Apr 11, 2015

Anyone listen to the recent Terrible Podast that brought on Dave Te' Thomas, who is an NFL scout. They do it every year, and it is usually a pretty interesting listen.

Anyways, they brought up these guys, and checking out some highlight reels, these guys stand out to me, what do you think about them?:

Marcus Peters--CB, Washington (He thinks he is a better fit over Kevin Johnson).

David Johnson--RB, Northern Iowa (Big Running back just like LevBell)

Jacoby Glenn--CB, Central Florida

Kurtis Drummond--S, Michigan St.

Danny Shelton--NT, Washington

TJ Clemmings--OT, Pitt (I like Clemmings or Collins over our current RT's)

La'el Collins--OT, LSU

Nate Orchard--OLB, Utah ( I like the swagger of Orchard or Ray)

Shane Ray--DE/OLB, Missouri

Jesse James--TE, PSU (Big dude)

Marcus Peters--CB, Washington (He thinks he is a better fit over Kevin Johnson). - In the tapes that I watched, he looked unwilling to tackle an 80 year old grandma. He also got kicked off his team and missed a season. I'd pass on him at #22.

David Johnson--RB, Northern Iowa (Big Running back just like LevBell) - I like him from what I've seen. The only question for me is when is it too early to take another RB? This draft is deep at the RB position.

Jacoby Glenn--CB, Central Florida - Haven't watched him yet.

Kurtis Drummond--S, Michigan St. - Good college player, but I'm not sure he has the goods to do it in the NFL. 5th round or later value.

Danny Shelton--NT, Washington - Mega two-gap run stuffer. I can't see him being available at #22.

TJ Clemmings--OT, Pitt (I like Clemmings or Collins over our current RT's) - OK, but raw from what I've seen. I took him in the 2nd round of our mock for Washington.

La'el Collins--OT, LSU - Good player. I can't see him being available at #22, but if he is he can be in the BPA discussion.

Nate Orchard--OLB, Utah ( I like the swagger of Orchard or Ray) - I watched some of Orchard about 6-7 weeks ago, and wasn't seeing him as a 3-4 OLB conversion. I'll need to watch a bit more.

Shane Ray--DE/OLB, Missouri - MONSTER edge rushing ability. Watch the 2nd half of his game vs. Florida. He just annihilated DJ Humphries. I'd give up a few picks to move up and get Ray.

Jesse James--TE, PSU (Big dude)- Haven't watched any of his games yet (and probably won't get to before the draft rolls around)

I like most of the guys on this list that I know about.

Marcus Peters--CB, Washington (He thinks he is a better fit over Kevin Johnson). I really like Peters. Would be a good pick for us

David Johnson--RB, Northern Iowa (Big Running back just like LevBell) DJ has a lot of strengths in his game that are strengths of Bell. That is a good quality to have in a backup.

Jacoby Glenn--CB, Central Florida Glenn would be a good pickup as the second CB taken this year

Kurtis Drummond--S, Michigan st decent player. Would be an okay pickup later in the draft, although I'd like to see us take a safety earlier than Drummond would go

Danny Shelton--NT, Washington I'm not a big fan of drafting NT in round 1, but I think this kid would be worth the pick.

TJ Clemmings--OT, Pitt (I like Clemmings or Collins over our current RT's meh. He's okay. Certainly would hate the pick if he was our guy at 22.

La'el Collins--OT, LSU I don't mind Collins. He's definitely more of a guard than a tackle though IMO. He reminds me a lot of Willie Colon.

Nate Orchard--OLB, Utah ( I like the swagger of Orchard or Ray) seems like a better fit in the 43 than the 34. Real liability against the run. I'd pass.

Shane Ray--DE/OLB, Missouri he's my favorite OLB in the draft. Total stud pass rusher and is solid against the run. I agree with Elvis on this one... I'd definitely trade up to get this guy.

Jesse James--TE, PSU (Big dude) no. I watch a lot of big ten football and don't really think this kid has NFL game. I think all the hype with him in due to his height/weight. I just don't see an aspect of his game that is better than below average. I wouldn't spend a pick on him.

After posting my reply to this, I went back and watched more tape on Orchard, and I'm warming up to him quite a bit.
