Moving the goal posts are we?  You asked for 1 I gave you 1. 

2.  Odafe Oweh 

Penn State player who didn't have a sack in his last season, but was drafted by the Ravens in 2022 and had 10 sacks in 2024.

I get your point--but I already made a point about the risk and why I would not do it, and then you mention the round which is a statement about risk tolerance.

 Believe it or not, this player was drafted #1 overall in 2022. LG much like players not playing in bowl games and not doing combine drills, its maybe a new normal. Draft is more than college stats..... ITS more magic seeing eye future BS!!!1!11!

There is no way you pick Stewart in the top 10! At best, I'd pick in the 2nd round. At best! He doesn't disrupt the game. He's a solid player, but not a disruptive force. At all. Watching him against Texas this year, and honestly Nick Scourton looks like the better player. No pass rush moves. Not even particularly physical at the point of contact with olinemen. No way.

You mean like Danielle Hunter who had 4.5 sacks in three years at LSU and has had 37 sacks over the last three years in the NFL?  In fact, he has 99.5 for his career.

I can go down the list with double digit sacks in college and give you a list of busts.  Stewart has dropped 30 pounds.  He has athleticism.

The issue is that there is no proof he will do such a thing. Can he be drafted in the 2nd round? Can we also pick-up quality defensive tackles?

You can’t draft starting your argument on outliers.  There are far more busts than success stories with that kind of production.  Not to mention he lost a lot of weight to make those numbers.  He lost over 10 lbs since the Senior bowl!  I think we should stay away.

He went from being listed as 290 to 267 in a short time period.  Hmm.

I have stated that he is too risky.  my point was this:  If you see a guy with his measureables and his "Myles Garrett" qualities he should not be disqualified because he underperformed in college.  To play Devil's advocate to your point:  Is there proof anyone will be successful as a pass rusher? I get it, and I have stated that I would not eliminate someone based solely on college performance.  We have guys who had 18 sacks in college busting and we have (based on my example) guys with 1.5 sacks as a senior in college averaging double digit sacks.  My point was do not turn on a guy based on that alone.  The higher you draft this guy, the higher the risk--I said morgan cannot afford to make mistakes this year--like when he drafted XL and Brooks last year--one was raw and one was injured.  It would be stupid to draft Stewart at 8.  However, someone is going to draft him in the top 20, in all likelihood.  That team will be taking on less risk than the Panthers at 8, but more than I would take--to your point.

No way you take him at 8. How many edge rushers will be available at that point and later? And he is a 4-3 end too.  

If Wonnum is an OLB in our system, then Stewart could be as well.

I'm actually starting to come around. He's already good against the run is an athletic freak plus his QB pressure numbers were good. Some good coaching and more freedom to pin his ears back for the QB he could be a home run.

Depends how risk adverse you are me I've got a gambling problem

Outside of Bryce we've pretty much been drafting on RAS during the Tepper era. It hasn't landed us many football players. If we showed up on Sundays and competed with Combine drills we might be able to win some games.

    • Honestly, I view the rest of this season like every game is a division game - meaning you can throw the records out.  Throw the perceived favorites out.  Every week, we have to show up and punch them in their mouth.  We’re gonna have to gut it out.  We can’t go into games against well coached teams and think, “well, the Rams already got that one, McVay is just too good of a coach and they’re too talented.”  “Can’t beat the Niners.  Shanahan is one of the best and they just play everyone so tough, even with injuries.”  We have to go into each game feeling like everyone counted us out and we have to show them why they’re wrong.  And speaking of the Niners - that’s the exact blueprint we need to be looking at - for the last, it seems like at least 5 years, they have been decimated with injuries.  And they still contend to win their division and make a run in the playoffs every year.  Even while starting a plethora of QBs.  Even with their best defensive players being out for the bulk of seasons…  their DNA doesn’t change.  They compete.  Their standard is winning and nothing less, so even if you’re the 3rd stringer forced into action, either show up and play to that level or find another team.  This should be our approach and I think the Saints game was an important wake up call… I occasionally listen to whatever ESPN show is on sports radio in the mornings with Chris Camry and I believe it was after we beat the Packers, they asked him about us and he said, “they’re a young team learning how to win.”  And that is about as accurate or a description as you can get.  It explains the hiccups and the struggles.  But it also explains why it looks so good when we put it all together.  What we need now is our guys to have that light bulb come on as a collective and never look back.  I hope last week was the start of that and it continues tonight and for the rest of the season..
    • The veterans played better last night and they actually were looking for Kon but Bridges and Sexton went for a combined 2-15 from three. That is so bad.
    • https://www.talkbasket.net/206848-lamelo-ball-frustrated-by-hornets-struggles-amid-durability-concerns "Charlotte Hornets star LaMelo Ball is reportedly frustrated by the team’s lack of forward progress, according to NBA insider Jake Fischer." Apparently in his mind being perpetually injured and playing less than Gordon Hayward while on a supermax contract has no effect on the forward progress of the franchise.
