This Week: 10 total tackles, 1.5 tackles for loss (one sack), two quarterback hits

An outstanding all-around athlete, the 6’4”, 264 pound Dupree demonstrated his ability to impact the game as a pass-rusher while also making plays all over the field, as he accumulated double-digit tackles.

Dupree utilized his explosive first step and natural speed around the edge to bring pressure as a pass-rusher.


Overall, however, Dupree made a major impact for the Kentucky defense Saturday. Possessing a diverse skill set and the ability to play multiple positions—though he would be best suited to play outside linebacker in a 3-4 defense—Dupree looks the part of a first-round pick.

I've watched him all year. His one sack last week was a coverage sack. He's good but far from great. Not big enough to start day one vs the run on the strong side. He uses his speed to overcome his la k of strength but if a RT get hands on him then he is pretty much locked. He does have a non stop motor I have noticed which is how he got his one sack last week.

Good player and could develop but not a 1st rounder in my book just going off watching him play.

I disagree with that. Way to early to say that. Both are bad vs the run and Ray uses more speed than he has great moves. A lot like Sam last year. Once coaches start breaking down video and see them vs the run and once a OT gets hands on them, they are stuck. They will start to fall.
Miller is one of the worse out there that I have read.he goes mostly off stats and over rate SEC players
