The Forgotten DE


Delhommey

Recommended Posts

I saw that earlier from a tweet by a writer and was going to post it, and of course, I remembered our discussions about FSU d-lineman of years past Delhommey.

What really blew me away was, IIRC, the caption with the video says that workout is 130-some days after ACL surgery. That is amazing. Looks really strong, stout, and good explosiveness at the point of attack in my amateur opinion. If we could get him in one of the middle-rounds, could be an awesome foursome of CJ, Hardy, Alexander, and Carradine... BUT, that's not happening as he apparently is being targeted early despite the knee injury.

For what it's worth:

Reedy reports there were representatives from 11 teams at the workout, which took place in Cincinnati, Carradine's hometown. The Atlanta Falcons, Cincinnati Bengals, Cleveland Browns, Denver Broncos, Detroit Lions, Indianapolis Colts, Kansas City Chiefs, Minnesota Vikings, New England Patriots, New Orleans Saints and San Francisco 49ers were represented. The clubs represented make up an interesting mix of traditional 4-3 and 3-4 defensive-oriented clubs. It is a reflection of Carradine's talent and versatility. - Rob Rang, NFLDraftScout.com

    • Everyone is entitled to their opinion. I for one do not believe Eric Dickerson went on this podcast just to perpetuate a blatant lie. He didn't say he heard this second hand. He said he was told this by a source inside the NFL office. No way that kid should have fallen to the fifth round with the QB situation that exists on some of the teams in the NFL. I had the same thoughts as Dickerson after he didn't go on the 2nd day of the draft. And when he did get drafted he ended up on a team with essentially 4 QBs ahead of him on the depth chart: Flacco, Pickett, Gabriel, and Watson. The only reason he probably was drafted at all was so the NFL couldn't be accused of "collusion". I have no doubt his attitude turned off some people. And, he may not be able to take his game to the NFL level. But, if can't play or is a jerk, a team is at liberty to cut him at any time. This situation reeks because it looks he's never going to be given a legit chance to compete for a starting job in the league.
    • Which, it's not a difficult sell to say that the NFL colludes against players. There are ample examples of it. The specificity of that allegation is just wild, though. If that really were true, the whole fuging system is fixed. I am just not inclined to believe that.
