Is Robert Quinn according to Mayock. Paraphrasing he said on tape Quinn is the most dominant edge rusher he's seen.

Question, with our reported interest in Bowers and this information does taking DE become more of a possibility assuming our Scouts and FO agree.

I thought Bowers was the consensus top DE, but I really respect Mayock and his opinion.

Quinn is a better edge rusher. Everette Brown is a better edge rusher than Bowers. Only difference is Bowers can do all the other things as well. He doesn't have to just rely on one trick to get to a QB. He can move bodies.

Quinn can pretty much do it all. Bowers might be slightly stronger against the run but not by a large margin.

Quinn was a guy, that if he could have played this year, could of been a lock for the #1 draft spot since Luck decided to stay in school. Since he has been out for a full season it will be interesting to see what he has done with himself in the time off.

Physically, he was a specimen. His motor was non-stop and was not the kind of guy you matched up one on one with anyone on throwing downs.

If Quinn was able to add 10-15 pounds and not lose any of the speed and quickness, it could get even more interesting at the top.

I don't know that you could use the #1 overall on a guy who hasn't played for a year. Quinn showing up at the combine and blowing people away will honestly only hurt us. If there are percieved to be two elite pass-rushers in this draft then teams that would have moved up for Bowers will sit and wait for Quinn.

      TNF: Rams/Seahawks

      I think the book has been fairly written on Darnold, and by and large stays true. He can be rattled by pressure, and will lose his composure. If a team can get to him and have something go wrong in the plan, the mistakes and errors will pile up. Rams have a better offense, Seahawks sport a better defense. Should be a good 1.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By Mr. Scot · Posted

      Not a defense of him...an understanding of the problem. (something you seem to be lacking right now) 🙄 Bryce in a Canales offense is not an example of a stylistic mismatch, but I can give you one if that helps. When he was playing for the Panthers, Cam Newton sat under OC's running Coryell type offenses. Newton had a big arm and was a strong runner. He fit into that sort of attack very well. Then he goes to New England, where at the time they were running an Earhardt-Perkins system (similar to WCO In a lot of what they do but very different terminology). The Patriot offenses back then were heavily based on timing and rhythm style passing, not something that Newton was especially well suited for. So he washed out at New England, not because he had poor ability (his abilities had been on display here on a regular basis) but because he didn't fit what they wanted to do with their offense. I always go back to Jeff Garcia as one of the prime examples of this issue. Garcia in a WCO looked like a world beater. Put him in any other scheme though...yikes!  So again, Young's issues here have nothing to do with any failure to mesh with Canales. Hell, is say Canales has actually done pretty well at adapting his system to who he has rather than trying to jam square pegs into round holes. Again, it doesn't take an elite level of football knowledge to get this. It's pretty basic. But if you're not even capable of understanding what the real problem is, how are you going to know you to find the right solution? 🤔
