Same as I am right now. I am also thinking that we are going to take the player that the bengals are not taking.
Their needs are similar.
I have McKinley higher than the three listed. I also has Hooker higher as well. But out of the three you listed, I'd go Barnett, Foster, Thomas. But I'd have my medical team dig deep on Masons concussion history.
Production can be deceiving, so I try not to get too caught up in that. But Derek Barnett was a four star recruit, has never had a season without at least ten sacks, broke Reggie White's Tennessee sack record in three years, is second only to Leonard Little in career tackles for loss, and was the first freshman to ever start on Tennessee's defensive line. And Barnett is the only player in SEC history to have double-digit sack totals three consecutive seasons. He has simply never not been good.
And its not like the Vols are loaded on defense right now. I mean, who is getting drafted from that unit this year? Barnett, Cameron Sutton, and maybe Jalen Reeves-Maybin, who was injured all year? So he essentially did most of his damage as the primary focal point of the offense to try and neutralize. I just can't imagine him not being good at the next level...
Yep! He's an every down RDE who can also rush the passer. He can step in, start, and give u 50 tackles n 10+ sacks.
He reminds me of a young Wil Smith. 6'3 268 n plays Tough and physical. But as a passrusher he's more polished. He can sink his hips comin off the edge to beat his man, can stutter step r spin to get inside, and yeah, he can bullrush too!
Barnett; we must generate a pass rush. I like Foster too, but I dont know how good he'll be in a zone scheme. I didn't really see him drop into that deep middle zone.
Thomas.....this guy is just quick and powerful at the point of attack in the trenches. Thomas can be moved all over the DLine. Thomas is powerful...good gosh amighty.
Round 1...Thomas DE
Round 2...Desmond King CB
Round 3...Anthony Walker LB
I wonder what kind of player the staff wants to play opposite Jordan.
5. EDGE Trey Hendrickson, Florida Atlantic
The prospect whose name I keep hearing at Shrine Game practices, Trey Hendrickson, is dominating. The 6'4", 270-pound pass-rusher also dominated this season, notching 15 tackles for a loss and 9.5 sacks. Given his power, length and production, Hendrickson will catch a lot of eyes. Where I'm most intrigued is in his ability to slide up and down the defensive line as an interior pass-rusher in a smaller front or stand up on the edge in an elephant package.
For me, it's got to be Trey Hendrickson. His profile is a wicked fast, blur off the line, speed-to-power RDE. In his senior season alone - 50 tackles, 15 tackles for loss, 9.5 sacks (albeit against inferior competition). The guy is 6'4" 270lbs. Not exactly small.
The knock everyone has is "he's played against inferior competition". I get that, fair enough. But he's been killing it at the Shrine Game practices. Garnering praise from scouts and coaches alike.
This guy can play at the next level. He's proving it at the Shrine Game. He's a perfect fit to pair across from Cam Jordan.
