**** is wack. is one way to put it

Re: 2017 Draft Day 2 - Rounds 2 and 3
 

I'm so sad to see the Falcons add Duke Riley. They are going to fly to the ball on defense.

Re: 2017 Draft Day 2 - Rounds 2 and 3
 

Possibly. Per scouting report, he is a notch below Christian McCaffery in route running ability. I see value in the 3rd.

Kamara is a strong, young back.

Anzalone?! I mean, he could be good but I don't know. We went off the rails tonight. Ireland must have run out of tranquilizers for Loomis.

This pick sucks moneky balls


OVERVIEW

Anzalone (pronounced ann-zuh-LOAN-ee) came to Gainesville as a fantastic two-way high school star in Pennsylvania, but has spent almost as much time on the trainer's table than on the field during his career. He played in 10 games as a true freshman, only making two tackles as he struggled with a shoulder issue. Anzalone played in all 12 games as a reserve in 2014, making 14 stops, one for loss. He finally got his chance to start as a junior, but had to redshirt after injuring his shoulder again in the second game of the year (six tackles). The linebacker known for his long, blonde hair started the Gators' first eight contests in 2016, collecting 53 tackles (four TFL, three sacks) but again was sidelined for the end of the season with a broken left arm.

ANALYSIS

STRENGTHS Has desired size and athleticism to fit into any defensive scheme. His fluid hips allow for easy flips and turns in space. Wide open strider with plus range. Makes up plenty of ground to the perimeter when looking to reel in running backs. Plays with gap-to-gap lateral quickness in his shuffle. Races downhill to get a taste of what iso blockers are serving up. Three-down linebacker who showed off the speed to carry running backs down the field in coverage. Has experience playing all three linebacker spots. Squeezes routes from zone and has acceleration to match seam-running tight-ends. Has closing burst and enough wiggle to challenge the pocket as a blitzer.

WEAKNESSES Has had substantial injuries in his background that helped limit his playing time and production. Has no interceptions or forced fumbles at Florida. Plays with inconsistent base. Contact balance is very average. Needs to improve with taking on pulling guards and cross blocking H-backs. Disengagement takes too long and he expends too much energy. Needs to punch and move to avoid being engulfed by linemen. Gets moved out of his run fits by misdirection. Overreacts to play fakes and will lose sight of the ball. At times, will look to do too much in coverage rather than just manning his position.

DRAFT PROJECTION Rounds 2-3

SOURCES TELL US "You saw at (Senior Bowl) practice how gifted he is athletically. He just has to prove he can stay on the field." -- NFC

NFL COMPARISON Vincent Ray

BOTTOM LINE Anzalone's size, speed and athleticism will be tempting for teams looking for a linebacker who can play all three spots. However, concerns about his durability could cause some teams to shy away from him on the first two days of the draft. If he can stay healthy, he has the talent to become a solid three-down starter in the league.

After the last 2 picks i am drinking from the bottle. talk about injury history list.

high risk/ high reward

Re: 2017 Draft Day 2 - Rounds 2 and 3
 

Anzalone; good pass rushing and coverage linebacker! Mayock says anyway

Re: 2017 Draft Day 2 - Rounds 2 and 3
 

Gonna have a great IR team this year.

Re: 2017 Draft Day 2 - Rounds 2 and 3
 

Alex Anzalone. We are stacked at LB'er.

Re: 2017 Draft Day 2 - Rounds 2 and 3
 

Too many LBs

Re: 2017 Draft Day 2 - Rounds 2 and 3
 

I must say I'm not feeling this LB pick. This guy stays hurt.

Re: 2017 Draft Day 2 - Rounds 2 and 3
 

IR prospect lovely

Re: 2017 Draft Day 2 - Rounds 2 and 3
 

Why did i bother taking the days of work and sitting up for this
Its 3am and completley deflated

Re: 2017 Draft Day 2 - Rounds 2 and 3
 

First lousy pick of our draft. Ugh!

D+ at best

Re: 2017 Draft Day 2 - Rounds 2 and 3
 

Well I predicted 2 white guys and the rest black guys...

Re: 2017 Draft Day 2 - Rounds 2 and 3
 

Could have got this guy later in the draft or as a UDFA... Wasn't really on many boards from what I'm reading...

Re: 2017 Draft Day 2 - Rounds 2 and 3
 

:confused:your unreal :p

Re: 2017 Draft Day 2 - Rounds 2 and 3
 

I'm going to at least let him see the field before I call him a lousy pick... Ya never know!

Re: 2017 Draft Day 2 - Rounds 2 and 3
 

Re: 2017 Draft Day 2 - Rounds 2 and 3
 

His tape looked good hope he stays healthy

Re: 2017 Draft Day 2 - Rounds 2 and 3
 

What happened in Saints war room? Are they wasted already?

Re: 2017 Draft Day 2 - Rounds 2 and 3
 

Talent is there. the coaches need to teach how to tackle without hurt that shoulder again. the kid is snake bite.

Re: 2017 Draft Day 2 - Rounds 2 and 3
 

Can we trade Anthony for a 4th rounder? We'll need it.

Re: 2017 Draft Day 2 - Rounds 2 and 3
 

Doubt he sees the field, gets hurt in TC.

Re: 2017 Draft Day 2 - Rounds 2 and 3
 

Now wishing we had traded up the 3rd and 2nd for a DE

This is starting to get the same stink as the 2014 draft

Just need our Baptiste,Fortt,Sunseri and Rooks

Re: 2017 Draft Day 2 - Rounds 2 and 3
 

I'm not gonna bother staying up for our other 3rd round pick. Feeling a little deflated now. I like Kamara... Just not the trade up. Anzalone is a total disappointing pick.

Re: 2017 Draft Day 2 - Rounds 2 and 3
 

ravens are having a good draft

Re: 2017 Draft Day 2 - Rounds 2 and 3
 

Great, we have so many locker room guys we could fill all the IR tubs!

Re: 2017 Draft Day 2 - Rounds 2 and 3
 

True Dat!:bng:

Re: 2017 Draft Day 2 - Rounds 2 and 3
 

Saints know how to be a dummy in trading up, they need how to smartly trade down

Re: 2017 Draft Day 2 - Rounds 2 and 3
 

...

Re: 2017 Draft Day 2 - Rounds 2 and 3
 

First lousy pick? How about the 3rd down back we way overpaid for? That's an F all day long.

Re: 2017 Draft Day 2 - Rounds 2 and 3
 

They often do
The advantage of having a GM that knows football and isnt ding two jobs
The coach is there too coach and not play GM/Coach/OC all in one


The first three picks were great but its gone downhill fast

Re: 2017 Draft Day 2 - Rounds 2 and 3
 

Are they drafting players to have a reason to load up their medicine cabinet

Re: 2017 Draft Day 2 - Rounds 2 and 3
 

:bugeyes:

Re: 2017 Draft Day 2 - Rounds 2 and 3
 

Why do they not like drafting pass rushers or d-linemen?,

Re: 2017 Draft Day 2 - Rounds 2 and 3
 

Our draft is a c so far

Re: 2017 Draft Day 2 - Rounds 2 and 3
 

Tony Richardson took one too many hits during his career LOL
