2013 NFL Draft

Jesse Williams, DT, Alabama – What is he still doing here?

Nick Williams, DE Samford – Prototype 3-4 body and a great athlete.

Philip Thomas, S Fresno State –  Instictual ball hawk, good tackler.

Duke Williams, S, Nevada – great athlete, early character issues seemingly behind him.

Cooper Taylor, S, Richmond – Kid is 6’5″, 228, 4.55 40yd. dash – medical concerns (heart condition)

Reid Fragel, LOT, Ohio State – TE convert, only one year at tackle. Lane Johnson body type.

Quinton Patton, WR, Louisiana Tech – Greg Jennings II?

Josh Boyce, WR, TCU – One of my sleepers of the entire draft…

Ryan Swope, WR Texas A&M – 4.34 at the Combine, but doesn’t look it on the field.

Chris Harper, WR, Kansas State – former QB, good athlete.

Barret Jones, OL, Alabama – Solid, versatile, Packers’ type of guy.

Luke Marquardt, OT, Asuza Pacific – Coached by Hall of Famer Jackie Slater.

Brian Schwenke, C, CAL – Looks like a perfect ZBS center…

Khaled Holmes, C, USC – Fits in a ZBS, but has some nasty…

David Quessenberry, OL, San Jose State – my favorite “all-purpose” OL. Can play any position on the line.

Khaseem Greene, ILB, Rutgers – Plays with abandon ala CM3… But he’s not CM3.

John Simon, OLB, Ohio State – relentless, hard working over-achiever type.

David Bass, OLB, Missouri Western – 39 sacks at Div II level – Sleeper Alert!  Read more... (350 words + 3 images, estimated 1:24 mins reading time)

 What they’re saying about him:   Read more... (670 words + 1 image, estimated 2:41 mins reading time)

• NFL.com: “Williams uses his size, consistent motor and supreme toughness to drain his opponents at the point of attack. His best NFL position is likely at nose tackle, but Williams has enough athleticism to play multiple spots for a 3-4 team at the next level.”
• Bleacher Report: “One of the biggest and strongest interior linemen in this year’s draft, Jesse Williamshas been an anchor for Nick Saban’s Crimson Tide defense for the last two years. There is extensive film of him playing both nose tackle and defensive end in Alabama’s 3-4, and he has experience with one and two gap techniques. He isn’t the athlete or pass rusher Marcel Dareus was coming out, but he is much quicker, lighter on his feet, and more explosive than Terrance Cody, who is currently with the Ravens.”
