re: First SEC defensive player taken in next year's draft?

I'm biased here and pumping up the UGA player, but Carter played 20 snaps per game last year. If you average that out to 50 snaps, it's 9O TACKLES and 22 TFLs. As a motherfrigging defensive tackle!!!

I was talking about BJ Ojulari in the post you quoted, not Carter.

New money georgia fricks don’t know how to shut up, every thread come in barking all their shite.

He's a great player, but his pass rush win rates (on a per pass rush basis) weren't astronomically higher than others

PRP: A formula that combines sacks, hits and hurries relative to how many times they rush the passer

PRP - Defensive Tackles (2017-2021) (at least 250 pass rushes)
1. Quinnen Williams (Alabama) (2018) - 10.0 (#3 pick)
2. Christian Wilkins (Clemson) (2018) - 8.2 (#13 pick)
3. Christian Barmore (Alabama) (2020) - 7.7 (#38 pick)
4. Jalen Carter (Georgia) - 7.5 (?)
4. Siaki Ika (Baylor) - 7.5 (?)
6. Dexter Lawrence (Clemson) (2018) - 7.3 (#17 pick)
7. Javon Kinlaw (S. Carolina) (2019) - 7.1 (#14 pick)

Jalen Carter only played around 300 snaps last season total. The PRP's database is screwy, unless teams threw 80 something percent of the time against Georgia which don't sound right.

The #1 pick this year was Travon Walker, linebacker from Georgia.

Linebacker?

He was a zero tech in about 15% of his snaps. 3 tech in about 35% of his snaps. And 4i or 5 tech in about 50% of his snaps.

He was no linebacker. If SOG called him a DT, I wouldn't have batted an eye.

He rushed the passer in 264 snaps?
264 were "passing downs"?
Or 264 were drop backs from the QB?

---

264 of them were pass plays

There is a subset called traditional drop back that eliminates screens and RPOs I believe, as well.

I appreciate the info.

That is one area where the scouts loved Travon Walker. He was not the primary pass rusher.

We would blitz a linebacker and drop him into zone a good bit.
Our fronts would shift before the snap. An equal amount of times, he would stunt a double team to free up the looper.
Our front 7 was selfless which basically made life miserable for offensive lines both in prep and execution. One second you have Jalen Carter at a 3 tech ready to rush the gap. Right before the snap, he is in a 5 tech carrying the tackle right into the guard and allowing one of 3 other defenders to loop clean.

As opposed to Will Anderson who was told to get the QB 85% of passing plays (not knocking Anderson or even claiming that he shouldn't be first. Just knocking the reliance on a stat against a defense that literally emphasized manufactured pressures from all angles).

Will Anderson is a Von Miller clone, I actually don’t know who Carter is but who does he play like? There is extremely high value on a LB with Will’s ability to get to a QB, Von is like 33 years old and got 100 million for that ability alone in the league at Buffalo

The reason T Walker was drafted #1 is because he was 6’5.5” 280 pounds and ran a faster 40 than several RB’s (4.47 I think).

If he stays healthy I would say Will Anderson. He should have won the Heisman last year, imo.

Jalen Carter after Anderson.
