Jetlife33 Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 So it sounds like he’s more of a 3-4 DE than a DT. So it’ll be Leo Williams , Steve Mclendon and this kid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Experts seem high on him so Okay I know it is... But man the OL is so shaky to me.. I just want more protection up front. They need to address it early tomorrow.

nycdan Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 PFF ranked him as the 5th Interior DL, which is pretty solid. https://www.profootballfocus.com/news/draft-ranking-the-di-prospects-for-the-2018-nfl-draft 5. Nathan Shepherd, Fort Hayes St. Shepherd’s blend of size, power and athleticism is rare. His competition is obviously a concern, but looked like he belonged in his limited time at the Senior Bowl.

Bugg Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 The weight gain seems kinda odd. Know a bit about D2, and older guys playing in D2 is unusual.At least in the northeast, it's high school stars who are just a bit smaller or slower or not quite as good as D1. But there are guys who get overlooked by D1; it's possible we got a player. But cannot pretend I have any better idea that Maccagnan. Would only like to see the OL get bolstered .

I'll pencil him in for a large number of reps on the d-line this year (not all the reps, I don't even thing regular starters get those there's a lot of subbing in and out) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kthisguy Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 I really don’t have an issue going for a DL. Shepard sounds like a great story (but is is this opposite of the Hack effect?). We had luck with Snacks and Shepard is the next Snacks? I am not sure how long we can avoid the OLine. The last few drafts the OL pretty much been an after thought. When you get middle late in the draft it becomes much more of a crap shoot. Take a shot on the Oline.

You don’t know more than a scout/GM who has been on the job for 25+ years. give it a mother*cking rest. The only thing I don’t love is the fact he’s 24. But he’s BPA and a solid need in the 3rd though. A 25 year old Canadian DT from a small D2 school that scouts consider "raw". Mac is a combine geek. Draft football players from now on, please.

That side of the ball should have much less resources dedicated to it. Our 100% focus should be supporting Darnold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have Sam Darnold because of Macc’s trade. If he wanted to go Shepherd then I’m going to assume that’s the best pick on the board for him. Its whatever, ride with the pick, don’t cry about it. I want one of you to play GM for a few months and let’s see how you do. We have Sam Darnold because the Browns sh*t the bed, and we piled three second round picks onto the pile for a roll of the dice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
