Is it just me or does it feel like there's a lot of O-linemen in these visits? 🤔

All of them thus far are late round UFA types.  Remember, we don't have another pick after round 5, so we have a lot of roster to fill with UDFAs.  Also, can't really burn one of our 4 remaining picks (after QB) on a backup lineman despite needing a couple.

Pulled this from Walter today--he is usually missing a few:

  • Anthony Bradford^, Offensive Tackle, LSU (COM, PRI) (Probably projects to G in the NFL---I would like this pick in round 4 or after--not sure he will be there)
  • Julius Brents, Cornerback, Kansas State (COM)  (most teams like this CB)
  • Charlie Jones, Wide Receiver, Purdue (PRI)  (I see this as a solid signing if we do it)
  • Will Levis^, Quarterback, Kentucky (PRI, PRO) (Why waste time on Levis?)
  • Jonathan Mingo, Wide Receiver, Ole Miss (PRI)  (Strong WR candidate that could be a better pro than college player)
  • B.J. Ojulari, Defensive End, LSU (PRI) I see this as a strong possibilty--also watch Felix from Kansas State)
  • Bumper Pool, Linebacker, Arkansas (PRI)  (Panthers will sign this guy--maybe as an undrafted free agent)
  • Joey Porter Jr., Cornerback, Penn State (PRI)  (unless we wheel and deal, this ain't happening)
  • Anthony Richardson^, Quarterback, Florida (COM, PRI, PRO)  (3 contacts---doing our homework on AR15)
  • Drew Sanders, Linebacker, Arkansas (COM)  (Possibly at 39 if Luvu goes to Edge)
  • Jaxon Smith-Njigba, Wide Receiver, Ohio State (PRI) (only if we trade up a lot)
  • C.J. Stroud^, Quarterback, Ohio State (PRI, PRO)
  • Bryce Young^, Quarterback, Alabama (PRI, PRO)
  • Chandler Zavala, Offensive Guard, N.C. State (PRI)(I have seen him as early as round 3--80" wingspan at 322 lbs--nice)

I just don't understand why?  

Due diligence. Just doing the homework.  You meet someone one day briefly and make first impressions. Second time and spend more time you can form a better all around view of them.

It also gets them in the building and you get to see how they interact with other folks that might not be a part of the scouting process.

Side Note: No indication this guy is visiting with us, but after seeing the name his parents have him, Bumper Pool doesn't sound quite as rough.

 

yep. Reminds me of a boy named SUE by Johnny cash. It's a good thing he like 6'4" and right at 300lbs.

    • Yeah. As a wild card team. Washington won the division at 10-6.
    • no doubt but flip that.   The current system insures that there are "regional" games in the early weeks. maximizing the reach of playoff football.  If all of the WC weekend for a conference took place on the west coast they are reducing the "reach" of their hype machine.
    • Hard to say with London--he never ran--combine or pro day.  Here is what AI says, and it is always 100% accurate: Drake London's 40-yard dash time at the NFL Combine was not recorded because he was dealing with a fractured ankle at the time. While he didn't participate in the 40 at the Combine or his pro day, his coach said his 40 time was estimated to be between 4.4 and 4.53 seconds. Some sources also list his 40 time at 4.58 and 4.6 seconds Unless you are running 9s all day, top end 40 speed is rarely reached.  I have always looked at the 3-cone drill.  At his pro day, TMac ran a 6.86--pretty good, actually.  For context, it is faster that Rome Odunze (6.88) who ran a 4.45 40.  Odunze is 6'3" and weighs 216, fwiw, and is considered a very good route runner with no wasted motion.  Mike Evans 3-cone was 7.08.  To put it in a broader context, through 2022, with all NFL prospect 3-cone drills combined, a 6.86 puts TMac in the.89th percentile-  Now consider the fact that he is 6'4" and 220.   We might have something here.  '
