See, I can work with that. 6'11" 265lbs. Heavyweight. More suited to be an NBA center. Great production in limited minutes.

This is a Center. Going on potential based on limited minutes on a stacked roster he has put in some work.

Guys like Garza and Cockburn are more proven. Started longer. But this guy has the NBA Center body.

Some nights he'll overpower that 215lb #1 pick of yours if they put him at 5. I generally think you've got to be 250+lbs to be effective against the other bigs.

If you're looking for a Center start with the scale.

Heels fan here and Sharpe has great size and not many will out work him.  Very good rebounder on both ends.  That said he is very raw especially with his offensive game.  He will need to improve tremendously to be a scorer in the NBA.

Isaiah Jackson from Kentucky needs to add some beef to his frame and seriously work on his scoring ability but you cant teach the athleticism that guy possesses.  He could be a major steal in this draft IMO.

 

 

Yeah, he's a beanpole. His shot blocking is off the charts though! He's almost 7' and only weighs 206, I'm 9" shorter and heavier by 30lbs. Lack of weight may make him a 4. Kentucky guys on our team haven't been consistent though. They can show up big and all but disappear the next night. We are stocking up on bigs and this draft looks like it has more bigs than you could shake a stick at.

Agreed…but he is better than either of the two we took last yr

PS: he can’t shoot

      Mike Kaye predicting we trade up in 2nd round

      We need a Sam Off Ball Backer to pair with Lloyd. Lloyd is a strong Interior Will especially in Pass Coverage- but that is also Trevin Wallace’s archetype. Need a Rozeboom style run stopper. Rodriguez and Allen fit that

      Day 2 Targets/Faves

      By woahfraze · Posted

      There aren’t that many ways to screw Day 2 up.  That’d be them making an obvious reach, or selecting at one of the few positions that we are pretty solid at. Because as excited as we are for the growth and improvement this team is showing, it’s still not an overly talented or deep roster. Honestly, there aren’t really many positions I’d feel bad about. Feelings about Bryce aside (because we are not going to select a QB), it’s really RB (bad positional value) and that’s it. I guess OT too since we grabbed Freeling in Round 1.    While not as high on my wish list as other spots, you can justify WR or TE.     Interior offensive lineman who would likely take over an interior spot either this year (at center) or guard (next for cap casualty of Hunt or Lewis)? Fine by me.   Dlineman? Yes, that’s a highly rotational position and we have zero quality depth.    ILB? Yep, could stand for an upgrade over Wallace.    EDGE? Absolutely wouldn’t hate another option to spell Phillips, Scourton, and Princely.    FS?  Would love to add better coverage skill set to the backend of the defense. Moehrig and Ransom are great in run support but not as good deep. Adding a more traditional FS would allow us to mix and match/run some 3 safety sub packages and or a big nickel type look with a SS down near the line for better run support in possible pass downs.    CB? Could stand to get better at nickel.

      Sounds like Veesaar is entering the draft. He could always test the waters and pull out and return but without him our big men look like a serious liability. Better do something in the portal. If they don't do something about this portal madness my days as a college sports fan are probably numbered. This bullshit of having a nearly entirely new team every season is gonna get old fast.
