Re: 2017 NFL Combine - Saints Prospects
[QUOTE=ChrisXVI;738507]Definitely doing our due diligence on edge rushers. Interviews with:
Tenn-Chattanooga DE Keionata Davis Keionta Davis, DE, UT-Chattanooga Height: 6-3. Weight: 274. Arm: 33.13. Hand: 9. Projected 40 Time: 4.90. Projected Round (2017): 4-6. 2/18/17: Over the past two seasons, Davis was one of the most consistent pass-rushers in college football, and that earned him an invitation to the Senior Bowl, where he had a decent week. Davis has versatile size to be an edge defender in a 4-3 or 3-4 defense. Davis totaled 10.5 sacks with 44 tackles, 11.5 tackles for a loss, seven passes batted and three forced fumbles in 2016. He produced even more pass rush as a junior with 13.5 sacks, 39 tackles, 17 for a loss, six passes broken up and a forced fumble. He also had four forced fumbles as a sophomore. Ohio DE Tarell Basham Tarell Basham, DE, Ohio Height: 6-3. Weight: 259. Arm: 32.88. Hand: 10.38. Projected 40 Time: 4.90. Projected Round (2017): 4-6. 2/18/17: Every season, there are some small-school prospects who get exposure at the college all-star games, and Basham got that opportunity at this year's Senior Bowl. He had a solid week in Mobile and did well rushing the passer in the one-on-ones. As a senior, Basham totaled 50 tackles with 16 tackles for a loss, 11.5 sacks and two passes broken up. He had some modest sack production as a junior (5.5), sophomore (4) and freshman (7.5). Basham ended his career with totals of 40 tackles for a loss, 28.5 sacks and six forced fumbles. Missouri DE Charles Harris Charles Harris, DE/OLB, Missouri Height: 6-3. Weight: 260. Projected 40 Time: 4.77. Projected Round (2017): 1-2. 2/18/17: Harris totaled 61 tackles, 12 tackles for a loss, nine sacks, two passes batted and two forced fumbles in 2016. To start the season, he turned in underwhelming performances against West Virginia and Eastern Michigan with a total of five tackles in those games. Harris exploded versus Georgia though, racking up three sacks and seven tackles. 8/13/16: Harris (6-3, 235) is a speedy edge rusher who broke out in 2015 with 56 tackles, 18.5 tackles for a loss, seven sacks and two forced fumbles. He was a backup as a redshirt freshman in 2014 and notched two sacks. Harris needs to add weight for the NFL. What Harris does the best is get after the quarterback. He is a fast edge rusher with a fantastic first-step. He quickly gets penetration into the backfield and shows a nice ability to finish off plays. Harris is a fast edge rusher who can burn tackles with pure speed around the corner. Not only is his speed dangerous, but Harris shows some good moves with an excellent spin move back to the inside. He has some speed-to-power skills with the ability to fight offensive tackles. Harris also possesses some functional strength for the pass rush and shows quality read-and-react skills. Aside from his run defense, Harris could use work on improving a few things. Running more hoop drills could help him to sink his hips better, as there have been instances when he looked a little stiff hipped. Harris has a good starting point for pass-rushing moves that is a lot more advanced than many early round pass-rushers who just rely on their natural athleticisms, but continuing to developed more moves and master his current ones is always a good idea. Harris should continue to refine and expand his moves arsenal. He also should work on his hand usage to continue to get better at as using his hands and feet at the same time. For the NFL, I think Harris would be an excellent fit as a 3-4 outside linebacker. He has a good body type for that. He could remain a 4-3 defensive end, but he could have problems in run defense in that scheme. Villanova DE Tanoh Kpassagnon Tanoh Kpassagnon, DE, Villanova Height: 6-6. Weight: 280. Arm: 34.75. Hand: 10.88. Projected 40 Time: 4.72. Projected Round (2017): 2-3. 2/18/17: Kpassagnon recorded 45 tackles with 21.5 for a loss, 11 sacks, one forced fumble and a pass batted in 2016. Sources from multiple teams said they see Kpassagnon being selected in the second round of the 2017 NFL Draft. He had a quality week of practice at the Senior Bowl. 9/3/16: Kpassagnon has impressed NFL sources in their scouting of fall practices. In 2015, he totaled 33 tackles with 6.5 sacks, 9.5 tackles for a loss, two blocked kicks and a forced fumble. Evaluators believe that Kpassagnon is raw, but that the skill set is there with a lot of upside to develop. Sources say that Kpassagnon is a perfect fit as a five-technique defensive end in a 3-4 defense. Defensive ends with his measurements are in demand, and teams believe that a strong season could result in Kpassagnon being selected in the second or third round of the 2017 NFL Draft. |

Like the flexibility in OL positions:
Ethan Pocic C/OG/OT LSU 6056 309 5.18 Sr #77 Sr Like the measurables (idea) of a DE who should set the edge and rush, too: Tanoh Kpassagnon, DE, Villanova Height: 6-6. Weight: 280. Arm: 34.75. Hand: 10.88. Projected 40 Time: 4.72. Projected Round (2017): 2-3. |
