Bob McGinn Scout Comments - Randy Gregory

[perrykemp]

2. RANDY GREGORY, Nebraska (6-5, 235, 4.62, 1): Played two seasons in junior college and two at DE for the Cornhuskers. "He is the best natural pass rusher," one scout said. "There's no question. He also has the biggest chance to bust. He's a freak. (Tall), tremendous feet and burst." Finished with 120 tackles (25½) for loss, 17½ sacks and five big plays. "He's got great get-off, flexibility and is extremely disruptive," a second scout said. "He has the ability to affect the game like Jevon Kearse (6-5, 262, 4.48)." Said he played as high as 258 pounds but was 235 at the combine, 238 at pro day March 5 and 228 on a team visit within the last 10 days. "He's got a light load," a third scout said. "He gets his (expletive) kicked around in the run game. Dropping into coverage will be a little bit of an issue. He hasn't done that. The only thing you can do with him is be a designated pass rusher." Part of a military family, he lived in several states before attending high school in Fishers, Ind. Missed time with several major injuries starting in 2011. Wonderlic of 28.

Wow just keep him away from drugs

 

[Szczepanik]

If Hardy drilled himself into Coleman I really think he well make sure Gregory performs well. The wrath of the kraken should instill fear into him.

 

[Bigdog]

Comes from a military family so he should have the discipline. Now does he have desire to prove everyone wrong. I hope he does. If he has mental issues, depending on the severity, they can be dealt with and I believe the Cowboys have everything in place to help this kid out. Great pick.

Wow.

Had no idea he was that intelligent.

 

[TheCount]

28 on the wonderlic? Not that it matters, but that's QB territory.

On the other hand, 228 lbs at a recent visit? That's about 20 lbs lighter than Bruce Irvin, another pash rush specialist that couldn't cut it as a DE in a 4-3 for the Seahawks, they ended up moving him to LB and are now trying to trade him.

Wow.

Bodes well.

 

[JoeyBoy718]

I'm wondering if we can play him at SLB like Denver does with Von Miller.

 

[visionary]

Hate it

 

[Chevyman08]

Good pick. He doesn't carry as much baggage as Winston. He will need to hit the weight room a lot before the season starts.

 

[ilykdrama]

Wow.

Had no idea he was that intelligent.

Really liked that part too. Kid made a mistake. Did what others do but got caught.

 

[AmericasTeam81]

I'm very intrigued by the pick but at the same time worried because of his light weight.

Holy CRAP: wonderlic of 28? I must say that's a pleasant surprise. Get off da chronic young man. Got a great future if you do. If not....meh.

 

[manster4ever]

with all the ganja he smoked, I am surprised he's so light. Munchies anyone? (sorry...just too easy to pass up)

Willie McGinest said he was up to 246-248 when he worked out with him.

 

[lostar2009]

Why is this guy weight dropping ? Seem like he may still be on drugs.

 

[big dog cowboy]

Woodson was excited about the pick.

 

[speedkilz88]

Willie McGinest said that when they did Game Breakers that Randy Gregory was up to 246/248
