My worry is NFL players are going to blow by him because his footwork is atrocious. He can't just be some mammoth that gets by on standing there and making guys go around him, because they will in the NFL. He lunges alot when he starts losing to speed rushers that can bend the arc. I'd say there is legit concern. [Reply]
Yeah Jenkins is probably gone before we can get to him considering how disappointing some of these other guys are. He’s probably the 4th OT on the board with some teams viewing him as the 3rd.
33.5 arms isn’t a deal breaker for a lot of teams IMO [Reply]
this is just a thought, but are less than 34" arms the issue or is wingspan more the number that would matter. It seems to me that an inch shorter arms aren't a huge deal, but the wingspan would be more important.
I mean, I get that you don't want the defender all up in your chest, but if your shoulders are wider, but your arms are a half inch shorter, you still have the same wingspan and would theoretically have a stronger base.
because of the weird plague year, there is a LOT less consensus then is typical.
Guys are being rated ALL OVER THE PLACE.
Half seasons, no seasons, lockdowns, all of that has evidently really affected scouting. I'm seeing guys in mocks as first rounders, but in the mock machines in the 3rd or 4th rounds. All over the place.
The first dozen or so guys all tend to go in that first dozen spots more or less, and everything else is kind of a crapshoot.
It will all depend on what Veach and his scouts think. The draft is going to be WILD, and anyone who thinks they have a handle on it beforehand are going to look foolish. [Reply]
