I like Sweat.

Would take him if available and Chris Jones walks.

Would occupy 2 guys and create chaos.

You taking him at 32? Because he's not making it to 64...

Probably not. I still don't know that it's impossible.

Because you have to project him to get pass rush ability. People did that with Mazi last year and it went poorly. In fact, it goes poorly more often than it doesn't. Even a guy like Saunders took 4 years to get anything on that front.

I think you're probably right. But I'm not positive of it. A guy like Sweat or Murphy that comes out of the draft with more obvious pass rush chops is unlikely to get to 2nd but there have been enough of these really big, really quick guys who never really develop into anything more than a run-stuffer that I wouldn't be shocked to see him at 64.

Only if Chris Jones walks would I consider it but he is a 1st round talent and would be a valuable player here.

Darius Robinson, was being interviewed on XM radio this am. Was very impressed on how he handled the questions, Charlie Weiss was very impressed with him.

Yeah, unfortunately Robinson probably long gone.

Saw someone at PFF predict Robinson could end up going top 15 by the end of the draft process!?

Were they anticipating big numbers from the combine?

I did hear the NFL network podcast say that all the scouts couldn't stop talking about him at the Senior Bowl. His performance there probably put him into the late 1st round.

But, some great numbers from the combine could easily move him up into top half. I mean, the kid looks like a freak, so I am actually expecting him to tear it up.

Not worried. Based on things I've read, so long as there is screw fixation and at least 10 weeks of recovery time, there is usually complete healing and especially so if it were a clean break. There was a study done a decade ago on them and the highest prevalence in draftable prospects was in defensive lineman. Something like 25% of all cases and there were quite a few.

Honestly, I think it has a biggest impact on RBs during the second half of their careers. Anyhow, I don't think it should be something that makes you cringe.

If he falls to us, run to the podium.

Does Brandon Dorlus not look like a prototypical defensive lineman in a Spags system? At 290, he can play all up and down the line, has good production, and is still just 22.

Yea, big fan and on my short list for 64.

Precisely. He's likely to exceed expectations at the combine and get some additional attention apparently.

He is absolutely a prototypical spags DL IMO and would be a perfect Omenihu replacement, although it would have worked out better if Omenihu were healthy for 1 more year to play ahead of him I think.

Biggest question mark on the entire team is what to make of FAU?

Is he going to play this year? Is he a guy? a JAG? What's the timeline? Rotation?

What's the deal!?
