The Rams
go for quantity and projects this year.
The CB is a position of need, but Tye
Hill does not have the height to be a
number one CB. Klopfenstein has all the
measureables but is not an elite player
then they took Byrd at pick 93 for some
unknown reason.
Overall
Grade: C- for quantity when picking
projects like these some may pan out
with this many to choose from. Otherwise
it could be the worst draft in years for
any team.
Hill's size will give a few
teams some caution, but he makes
up for what he lacks in height
with quickness and aggression.
Hill is still a little raw at
the position, especially in zone
coverage. His speed and
quickness make up for his
deficiencies on the college
level, but he will need good
coaching to further develop....more
May never rank
amongst the elite tight ends in
the league as he is not quick or
explosive. However he will work
hard and can be in the second
tier of starting tight ends...more
Plays hard, and finished his
collegiate career with 12 sacks
and 21.5 tackles for loss. An
arrest for marijuana possession
that cost him an invite to the
Senior Bowl was dismissed, and
is the only blemish on his
off-field record. The only real
concern is a lack of ideal size
at just under 6-2...more
Byrd is
consistently productive in
nearly all the aspects of the
position, but lacks the
quickness, explosiveness and
playing speed to be an impact
player.
Adeyanju has all
the athletic tools to be very
productive in all areas, but he
is pretty much a one-dimensional
player who makes nearly all his
plays against the run
He is a smart,
tough offensive lineman who
consistently gets off the ball
quickly, stays after his block
and eliminates his man from the
play consistently
