My grades for this draft.

by rhettchrystal on Apr 25, 2010 7:36 AM EDT

Tyson Alualu: 8.8
D’Anthony Smith: 7.9
Larry Hart: 5.1
Austen Lane: 5.3
Deji Karim: 5.7
Scotty McGee: 4.3

Alualu: Good pass rusher, and run stuffer. Under the Radar, especially to east coast. Strong hands. 35" vertical jump, so can jump high and knock balls down.

Smith: Similar to Alualu, Aggressive, strong run-stuffer who has an array of moves to get to QB … Strong, physical tackle who is blessed with speed and quickness … Played in the Senior Bowl alongside Jaguars first-round pick Tyson Alualu, same size.

Larry Hart: Good pass rusher, but very small for the position, will probably end up playing some LB. Only 6’0 and 248lbs. But no doubt him, he looks like Elvis Dumervil.

Austen Lane: Perfect size, good pass rusher. 6’5" 274 lbs. Many awards,

Deji Karim: This guy looks like MJD, but C.J. speed. Can’t get far off initial contact. The speed gives him a chance, to breakaway at any time. MJD can get 10 yards with no gap, this guy no blocking and he will probably get stuffed.

Scotty McGee: Amazing KR, while playing cornerback. JDR, and Gene Smith, think he will immediately start, when he comes in.

I’m looking forward to hearing news, and watching videos on minicamp

Nice job Rhett

Given the fact I haven’t heard of any of these players, I’m looking forward to seeing what they can do.

good, succinct work… but a question for the slow of mind that aren’t sure - are your grades based upon a 10 point system?… i didn’t want to assume, so…. yeah.

TA

I think hes going to be a good fit, I’m hoping he doesn’t pull a Harvey and hold out, that is so bad for the locker room!!

These are out of a 10 point system, the picks r low, cuz
1. KR could of got undrafted possibly.
2. One DE is short, other DE is bigger better, but obviously isnt as good as D. Morgan and/or JPP.
3. RB wasn’t much of a need, but you can’t pass that guy up and it was BAP
