Jerel Worthy Visiting Today


Kuech the Sneak

Recommended Posts

I think that Jerel Worthy is the most "what you see is what you get" DT in the draft. He dominated a very, very impressive Wisconsin offensive line in the Sparty/Wisconsin bowl game this year, showing that he can man-handle Pro level talent.

With Poe, he seems to be a work-out warrior that didn't have convincing games at Memphis. Brockers is still really raw. Cox is one of the guys who began popping up during the Combine and slightly before, and could have huge potential.

I just think that Worthy is the most "known" player out of the group, which definitely isn't a bad thing. Is his ceiling as high as Brockers? I don't think so. Is he as physically dominating as Poe was during the Combine? No, not at all. But, he's definitely worth a look.

I like Worthy too, though the comments about his work ethic worries me. I think at this point, all potential 1st round DT's should be considered. People are getting a bit too enourmed over Poe's combine. I think people need to realise just how raw Poe is. What really worries me is that he's been a full time starter for 2 and a half years, that's 30 starts in total, and he's still so raw. You would think that guys like him with such upside but raw technique would only be a year starter. This begs the question, why hasn't he polished up after so long? Sounds like a bust waiting to happen.

    • Trade up for a project was dumb, he's gonna be 25 next month. By the time you're deciding on whether he's worth the 5th year option or a big contract you're already gonna be thinking about moving on soon either way.  
    • I mean this is legit AF statement....you don't spend that draft capital on a project just like you don't trade up for an injured RB either, which was done in the same draft.  That draft IMO was a necessary evil for DM to learn from his mistakes (I think he did but some may not). Also I have to mention I'm a big Coker fan and think getting him as an UDFA was obv a steal.  Coker is the better WR2 at this point as Legette and its not even debatable unfortunately.  Give him year 3 but don't expect much from him.  Continue in the offseason with adding as much talent and competition on the roster as possible including WR.  Or just trade his ass for peanuts and continue to build roster by any means.......  
    • Losing him was a huge loss. Look at how the Bears went from a 5 win team to now a 11 win team. The Lions offensive line is bad this year, secondary is bad and Campbell going for it on 4th down all the time has cost them games instead of taking the Field Goals. Goff is inconsistent as well.
