The clip mentioned he was a linebacker and moved to DE.  Could we move him back to linebacker?

This is what I was thinking. With that speed and athleticism he wouldn't really need to put on weight to play linebacker.

This is the pick I hate the most. Yeah he has speed but lacks technique. I feel like the players with good technique do better in the nfl then your players who are great physically.

I’m a big fan of length at the DE spot. I don’t know that there were better players available and I guess he’s new to the position so maybe technique can still be unlocked

I'm just happy we're actually picking elite athletes with potential instead of players like Gaulden and Armanti Edwards.

Armanti won at least one game for us and did stay in pro football for a long time. 

This is the pick I dislike.

The guy has motor issues. He has technique issues he's worse than the Miller kid we got from Bama.

I mean I’d argue that he had one of the worst coaching staffs in all of power 5 football.

When I was watching Willis (Liberty) play Tech, Barno stood out quite a bit (which he should against G5 players).

He didn’t have the production that Marquise Haynes had in college but a lot of their flaws are similar… undersized, has no moves in package (only speed), non-factor in the run game, etc…

Personally I attribute his “motor” issues to just being on a downright horrible VT team the past two years. I don’t think he was in a great situation to be developed.

With his athleticism I think he gives Pasqualoni a lot to work with.

As he gets older he is naturally going to put on weight.. So I like the fact he will do it under the supervision of a pro staff..

    • Jack Roslovic: Only 2 other UFA, right-handed centers age 28 or under had more points (39) than him- Sam Bennett (51) and Pius Suter (46). There were 4 other centers age 33 and older who scored more: Gireaux (37), Marchand (37), Tavares (34), Granlund (33).  Unless the Canes go old, if they let Jack walk, they won't get a center who scored more.  Thoughts? 
    • nope     This is why we come back every year.  Hope springs eternal
    • It's important to differentiate criticism and hate. I can't speak for that individual you quoted. But most people who have been critical of the Tepper's have been so because both of them have made it a point to put themselves front and center and in the middle of team operations and we have been largely horrific more often than not as a result. If people are making derogatory remarks about her that should be met with an appropriate response but if people are being defensive just because she's being criticized all I can say is people should get used to it. Both her and David would have been getting absolutely skewered by the media and the fans if this were a big market franchise. The Lakers are finally being sold off after years and years of public criticism of Jeannie Buss and even though I'm the furthest you could go from being a Lakers fan just about anyone you could meet who is familiar with the NBA would say the criticism was certainly valid.
