No thanks to Sweat. He is not very good against the run and has stiff hips and gets stood up quite often. You want your ends to be able to bend and get low and Sweat didn't show that ability in games. I think he is much more suited for a 3-4 OLB.

If he is there I want Clelin Ferrell. He is probably the best top ranked DE against the run in this draft and he already has a developed NFL frame. He moves and bends very well for his size. I'd be Happy with Ferrell, Lawrence, or Wilkins at 16.

Id say your spot on but your spot on! 100% agree with your picks. If Sweat n Ferrell are gone I may take the top LT left n double stack DE 2nd n first 3rd. Just my thoughts but loved yours.

Just reread. What is your aignst against Sweat? 6"6 252 coming out with room to grow. Seems like a slam dunk to me. Dudes stats are sick. Hope you warm up to him.

Guess I got your answer in your post but rewatch the senior bowl practices. Those questions are erased. Of course Id take Ferrell too but Ron most likely ruined that for our rah rah fans.

A lot of guys look great during practice but during real games he looks stiff in the hips. That’s why I think he will be more successful as a stand up pass rusher.

He was consistent getting in the backfield in the full on scrimmages

And the game.

He's fluid

Also the thought he may be better in a 3-4

 

 

Rivera is talking about going to a hybrid 3-4 which will make him a obvious puzzle piece.

 

Interesting you mentioned stiffed and then talked about Ferrell.  Some scouts have been questioned Ferrell as stiff and tight hipped.  Quite a few people thought there was real shot he fell to the 15 range.  This was prior his nice showing in the championship game.  He could come into the combine and scouts pick something out in him

I’m no expert but just from the games I have watched this season, Ferrell moves very well for his size and has no problem getting low. He may be a little tight in the hips but not nearly to the extent of Sweat. 

Also Ferrell is significantly better against the run which is huge if you’re picking a DE in the first and looking for them to be a day one starter.

 

Edit: Just want to add I have nothing against Sweat, I just think Ferrell will be a better all around 4-3 DE.

Agreed Ferrell is the better DE.  

But again Sweat isnt no slouch either

    • Have to stop making everything about BY. They will and have been bringing in players to improve the TEAM, not just Bryce Young. Which is something they should have done BEFORE bringing in a rookie QB. Even Metchie is a generally good pickup at a position of need. He just happens to have played with BY in college. And that doesn't hurt his chances or the team's. Morgan just addressed the biggest areas of need on the team via free agency so they won't be reaching for a position of need in the draft. He's legit picking the best player available for the TEAM in the draft. The o-line was in shambles in 2023. He addressed it in 2024. The d-line was in shambles in 2024. He addressed it in 2025. The pass rush and linebackers were in shambles in 2025. He's addressed it in 2026. Unfortunately good young WRs don't hit the FA market, so can't just throw money at them. You have to draft them. I wonder what some would be saying if they'd spent the amount of cap on the offense that they spent on the defense in 2025 and 2026 - and then used both first round draft picks on defense. Would that have been better in your eyes? No. You would be complaining that the defense is too young to compete and more vets weren't brought in because they're trying to prop up BY. This team should be talented enough now to make some noise in the South. If BY is actually holding them back, then QB will be addressed in 2027. They benched him 2 games into their tenure and you think they're tied to his success. No. That doesn't compute. They're tied to the team's success. BY could throw for 5000 yards and if they're 4 - 13, head's will roll.  TLDR: Their decisions aren't driven by making BY look good. They're trying to improve the team and win games. Period. 
    • I still firmly believe that Tepper still has his mandate of make Bryce work or get fired and because of that, it doesn't matter how badly he does... He'll get a long term deal in the 40-50m range and set back this franchise for a decade. Then the Teppers will have another QB infatuation and maybe they get it right then.
