There shouldn't be another OL picked before Round 3 for the next two years.

Nice write up on Leonard.

Darius Leonard, ILB/OLB, South Carolina State
Height: 6-2. Weight: 229. Arm: 34.13. Hand: 10.38.
40 Time: 4.70.
Projected Round (2018): 2-3.
4/25/18: Scouting sources told me that Leonard really impressed them during the fall. He flew around the field, producing a lot for his defense. Leonard amassed 113 tackles with eight tackles for a loss, eight sacks, one pass batted, two interceptions and one forced fumble in 2017. He has a knack for making plays behind the line of scrimmage, totaling 42 tackles for a loss with 13.5 sacks combined over his freshman, sophomore and junior years. Leonard has NFL size and dominated his level of competition. He was impressive at the Senior Bowl, showing pass-coverage ability while also running sideline-to-sideline in the ground game.

Yeah, I had him highlighted bc I thought he would fit what we did, just a round off. He rose quite a bit from the senior bowl.

He measured at 234 at the combine. Hopefully he can get to 240+ and play MLB effectively.

Matt Miller had Smith and Leonard as his 70th and 79th overall players...

Watch NE get Landry at 43 now.

We #Colts just got the next @DT_50 mixed with a littke @kbull53 !! Trust me I coached against him! Straight stud! Congrats!

Landry sure dropped :cool:

Tennessee just traded up for him. Great, so the Titans got two good LBs for their defense.

Totally agree. We had to now because we have had two fucking idiots at the wheel previously.

Vince Young still can't read ... :eek:

Supposedly he has the frame to add 10-12 pds. He is being compared to Alec Ogletree who is a very good coverage LB.

Who the hell is Matt Miller?

w/ Landry, maybe it's his injury history? hope B. Smith really can play some RT, if that's what Ballard has in mind

oh well, maybe a promising CB will still be around at #49

worse....TN

sounds like he's more of a WLB than MLB--which is probably OK in Eberflus' defense

Meh, Idk about worse, but Evans and Landry in Nashville is not good for the Colts. I hope they both bust.

Yeah, well fuck Matt Miller. Who the hell is Matt Miller anyway, my mailman knows more than he does. He sure as hell doesn't know more than Ballard and Reich.

I was just hoping for at least one playmaker with 3 picks in the top 40...

No clue, probably Bleacher Report or one of the draft sites? :cool:

One of the MLBs going into the Hall of Fame this year played at 6'2" 240.

I thought Puck said Ballard will only pick BPA and not for need?

Why is Connor Williams dropping? 2 months ago he was top 15 pick?

I would look for Gerard Avery or Skai Moore tomorrow for a Mike. Yeah Leonard should be a Will. I really like him. LB is starting to get thin.

We can hope for Leonard to pan out that way.

He didn't test well and many have questions if he can stick at LT.

...or this would've been easier to digest with something resembling an impact player from free agency. I don't mind scorched earth focus on safe picks...but this is it.

...and there goes Kerryon.

NE jumped out of after TE picked
Looking for a Gronk replacement

I wondered that too :cool:

I think they drafted Leonard for MIKE. Picking Jerome Baker at some point would be a giveaway of that.

They likely dropped because of the Landry pick.

I think you will like Darius Leonard :cool:

He had 14 tackles in the senior bowl, very nice

IIRC he also has poor "arm length" which is now a thing....

Shit there went Kerryon Johnson :cool:

Length is yet another thing LTs need to counteract effective pass rushers that can beat them with their length.

J Jackson, Oliver, C. Davis still on the board

Hope Josh Jackson keeps falling :cool:

Yeah, he would. Baker has some great speed.

How did he not? Oh wait. Are you going by the Rankings of Mel Kiper? Or Chris Ballard?
