Coaching staff clearly likes him and thinks he can make the team

was a 30 visit guy 

It's apparent we took advantage of the deep 5th year senior Covid class. Eku was projected 5th round by NFL.com. Family is in Asheville but he's from Somoa, so Luvu will probably be stoked.

Per Dane Brugler’s The Beast draft guide: 

-Eku Leota graded as 5/6th round pick 

-Jalen Redmond graded as 5/6th round pick 

-Rejzohn Wright graded as 4/5th round pick 

Where did he project DJ Johnson?

He was the 21st ranked DE right behind Byron Young who went two spots ahead. Serious drop off after that. We went for need, and the only possible regret with that is we chose Johnson over KJ Henry who was also available

Here is Eku beating the 38th overall pick by Atlanta.  
 

Yeah it’s one play but he is no slouch. He tore is pec and missed a bunch of time his senior year.  Probably why we had him in for visit   It’s healed now since he hurt it Oct 1st and was playing at Senior Bowl

I watched some Cam Peoples highlights yesterday and didn't seem like anything special considering the type of power guy we could use. 

He's not a power back. He has good vision and just enough size to get some YAC. If he had a better speed/burst he would have been a draft pick. Hopefully he can put behind his injuries that slowed his development the last couple years.

    • The lack of discipline has seriously been our downfall the last month. Seems like we just went off course this last month and Lee won't address it. You can't just live and die by the 3 when you can attack the paint and at worst draw a foul
    • Great season regardless of what happens. From starting out 4-14 to ending 44-38 is incredible progress and future is bright from here. I do think we can beat the Heat and then win on the road against either Orlando or Philly assuming Embiid doesn’t miraculously return sooner. But if not, a higher draft pick is nice too
    • I know a DT that's asking for a trade: 🤔 maybe a home discount can be worked out. Dan Morgan could create up to $80 million in space through restructures of stars like Derrick Brown, Jaycee Horn, or Taylor Moton. They could also include players like Tershawn Wharton ($18.6M cap hit) in the trade to balance the salaries. Carolina Receives: DT  Dexter Lawrence II New York Receives: 2026 2nd Round Pick (No. 51 Overall): A premium Day 2 selection that fits the for  Lawrence  after his 0.5-sack season in 2025. WR  Xavier Legette : A young, high-upside receiver who provides the playmaking depth HC John Harbaugh needs for his offense. 2026 4th Round Pick: Immediate mid-round value. 2027 4th Round Pick (via MIN): Future capital acquired in the  Adam Thielen  trade.  ----- Stone Forsythe* (another young player as a potential trade option)provides immediate offensive line retooling for HC John Harbaugh.    John Harbaugh's history in Baltimore proves he values draft volume over individual superstars.    Just my 2cents
