Draft Scout Snapshot: DS Rating on 8/24/08: #11 DT, #145/750 Overall, Projected Rnd: 5

He earned honorable mention All-Big 12 honors by the league coaches, and was also an honorable mention All-Colorado performer as selected by the state's chapter of the National Football Foundation. He played in all 12 games, including eight starts at defensive tackle, and was in for 601 snaps from scrimmage. He had 50 tackles (31 solo), with his 13 tackles for loss the second most on the team; his two-and-a-half quarterback sacks tied for the third most. He also had seven hurries, four third down stops, two fumble recoveries, one caused, and three passes broken up.

2005: 11 GP; 0 GS; 5 Sol-10 TT, 1 TFL, 1 PBU, 3 QBH; He saw action in 12 games including the Champs Sports Bowl (no starts), playing for the first time against New Mexico State in the second game of the year. He saw most of his action at tackle, but he did play some at end, especially around midseason when the position was hit hard by injury. In playing 203 snaps from scrimmage, he was in on 10 tackles (five solo), with one for a loss; he also registered three third down stops, three quarterback hurries and a chasedown (near sack). The coaching staff never considered redshirting him after the first impressions he made at the start of fall camp.

How big is he AK? And Hypolite sounds like a golf club shaft company, not a DT.

"I just put a new 70 gram Hypolite shaft on my r9 driver and added 20 yards to my tee shot!"

Strengths

Very active DT who makes a lot of plays. Very quick off the ball and into gaps. Good athleticism and agility. Plays low with leverage and has good strength for his size. Excellent instincts and is tough to fool on draws and screens. Excellent on stunts. Pursues hard and plays to the whistle.

Weaknesses

Small DT who can be engulfed by big linemen and double teams; strictly a one-gap player. Not an elite pass rusher, but gets some pressure.

Projection

Not the NFL prototype but too good not to make it. Will be a second-day pick and could start for a team like Indianapolis.

how ironic...

Not a first team, second or third team all conference...but an honorable mention. Man this guy is going to be good. A camp body for sure.

I hope Hurney is burning up the phone lines ('airwaves' contemporarily speaking) getting us a Chris Harris type of trade.

Maybe Irvin can take Maake's spot, and this Hypolite character can play behind Lewis? Seems like he's definitely the kind of tackle Meeks might have worked with in Indy.

I just don't know about these smaller guys; we face a lot of great backs this season, and I hope we don't get run all over.

I know it was preseason, but do you remember how our 'beefed up' OL just man-handled Indy in the preseason game last season? They were pushing them 3-5 yards off the LOS. Smaller, quicker guys are fine if they don't get locked down, but once they do, the OL will just put them in reverse. (See Giants game with no Kemo.)

      Panther assistants tagged as potential future head coach

      By CmC2k · Posted

      Evero is on the last year of his deal and he's not going to resign here. I think he's gonna try and interview for a HC job and if he doesn't get 1 then I can almost guarantee he's the Rams DC next year taking over for Chris Shula who's almost certainly gonna get a HC job this cycle. The Rams tried to hire him away in 2024, but we blocked the interview, so I have no doubt they are gonna go for him again. The Rams give him a better chance of getting a head coaching job, something Evero has made it known that he wants and his previous relationship with Mcvay and the front office there make it all but certain.  With most of the defensive staff being Evero guys I think we see a pretty big turnover on the defensive coaching staff this offseason as most of them will follow Evero to LA.  I'd look for Canales to bring in someone he's worked with in Seattle like Kris Richard or Gus Bradly or he could just promote Todd Wash to DC.

      He wanted to go to Tampa Bay according to some sources. I saw an interview with him where imho he heged and reading between the lines I sensed he was ready to leave. I don’t say “absolutely” though lol.

      How lucky can you get?

      The Bucs fan base has become delusional the last 5 or so years. I read for an hour this morning on message boards and X how they think they are going to A) Fire Bowles and ride an interim into the playoffs B) Fire Bowles at the end of the season and get Mike Tomlin C) Get Harbaugh from Baltimore and many other crazy theories that involve trading Baker for future HoF QBs at little to no cost.   Living in the basement for 18 years and then having sudden success with Arians and Brady really messed with their psyche.
