With the 12th Pick in the 5th the Chargers Select
Stansly Maponga*, DE/OLB, TCU
Height: 6-2. Weight: 256. Arm: 34.18.
Projected 40 Time: 4.75.
Projected Round (2013): 4-5.
3/2/13: Maponga totaled 26 tackles, four sacks and two forced fumbles this year. He had a disappointing season and needs to develop some pass-rushing moves. Maponga made a mistake entering the 2013 NFL Draft, but he showed some good strength at the Combine with 30 reps on the bench press.
8/27/12: Maponga was a play-maker for TCU in 2011, and he was a disruptive force as a pass-rusher. The speedy Maponga totaled 55 tackles with 13.5 tackles for a loss, nine sacks and five forced fumbles. Not only is he quick off the edge, he has natural pad level and leverage to turn the corner.
Maponga broke into the starting lineup as a freshman and recorded 32 tackles with 2.5 sacks. TCU is planning on him being a pass-rushing force in 2012. If the junior duplicates his 2011 season, he could declare for the 2013 NFL Draft. Maponga looks like a natural 3-4 outside linebacker.
This is the point in the draft where you start looking for diamonds. And seeing as Maponga could possibly be developed into a pass rushing monster he will be quite welcomed. You can never have too many pas rushers.
San Diego draft:
Rd. 1 Johnathan Cooper - G - UNC
Rd. 2 Manti Te'o - ILB - Notre Dame
Rd. 3 Travis Frederick - G/C - Wisconsin
Rd. 4 Jordan Mills - OT - Louisiana Tech
Rd. 5 Stansly Maponga - OLB - TCU
Interesting pick there!
Did anybody get a board from the Dolphins GM? If there is no interest to continue this I'm not going to keep wasting my time, this is the like 4th GM to miss his pick today and yesterday.
