With how weak our current WR corps is aside from JCorn and Nance, our TEs should definitely have a good amount of production.

Luke Kuechly doesn't have a problem with it. I agree the kid looks just like a body though.

Idk if you watched his highlights but he looked fast, mean, and had the instincts.

while I get that academically Stanford is a great school. UofA has a great reputation among big companies.

They give 4 stars to players who "look just like a body"?

Exciting times, this staff is doing work. Get Burks and Henry on board and 2019 could get real interesting.

if you're talking straight academics. yes Stanford by 10 miles. if you're talking whole package we don't stack up as bad. although I'd probably still pick Stanford.


I'm just saying we aren't some complete shithole in comparison to the fighting Christmas trees...

Zimos obviously needs to fill out at 6'4". He could carry 20-25 more pounds of muscle easily. That could also put him in a hybrid LB/Rush End category as well, but looks like we're good on ends.

I was gonna ask. Seems a little tall for a linebacker to me, may be a good hybrid rusher.

Most LBs aren’t 5’11 like Greenlaw and Harris. 6’4 is not tall for a LB

Enoch definitely seems like a hog based on his recent tweets. And it appears he is also working on Catalon

which means they can deflect passes better. height in linebacking Corp makes a big difference in intermediate passes. add a little more lift and a little more hang time to get around them.

The best OLBs are consistently around 6'3-4.

And based on his tape he's much more of a coverage LB than pass rusher

oh the thought of us having a linebacker who isn't a liability in pass defense. Just thinking about it gets me erect

Look no further than nfl rosters.

All of bama's lbs are always close to 6'3.

Went back and checked out bama's roster for 2017.

6'4 6'4 6'4 6'5 6'3 6'3 6'3 6'2 6'0 6'0

Yep all lbs are definitely 6'0 5'11

We've been getting 5'11" to 6'2" linebackers for so long that anyone we get taller than that, "seems a little tall"

Caleb Miller was a pretty good player for us at 6'3".
