Is Our 2nd Rounder a Faster Version of TJ Watt?

[RonWashington]

What Sanders are you referencing? Colonel Sanders?

Fred G

what if Donovan Eze is another Robert Quinn ..or Dante Fowler ..?

Would that suffice ?

Agree the 2nd rounder was a 1st rounder on alot of boards. Good value .

What's the deal with his contract. Why is he unsigned?

my favorite player in our draft but i would wait till TC before comparing him to TJ Watt.

I like the kid too but I will wait until about mid-regular season to pronounce him anything other than a guy with great potential that I’m glad we drafted.

I don’t think it’s fair (I know you aren’t doing it) to these rookies to start comparing them to a future HOFer before they’ve ever played a down of real NFL football.

Mafah= Henry
Blue= Sanders
Deuce=Sproles
Juanyeh Watson= Woodson
Donovan Ezeiruaku= TJ Watt

Ya gotta love the honeymoon period.....

Brian Schottenheimer = Tom Landry/Jimmy Johnson
Matt Eberflus = Buddy Ryan
Klayton Adams = Kyle Shanahan

Overview​

Slightly undersized outside linebacker for a 3-4 front with long arms and plus athleticism. Ezeiruaku uses every bit of his length paired with aggression to mitigate size differences at the point of attack. He gets engulfed at times but typically separates from or slips blocks cleanly. He’s quick off the snap, using bend and agility to win at the top of the rush or make stops in the backfield. His hands exploit small advantages to turn them into big ones and he has a variety of ways to challenge protection, though he’s still learning to craft his plans. Ezeiruaku’s play demeanor, skill and athletic talent are the underpinnings of a productive starter with three-down value.

Strengths​

• Smooth hips with easy change of direction in space.
• Long arms greet blocker with forceful punch in the chest.
• Slips quickly past blocks and makes plays in the backfield.
• Uses agility, recognition and athleticism to pile up tackles.
• Rushes with consistent forward lean and active hands.
• Bend to sink under the punch and corner the arc tightly.
• Makes sudden alteration to his rush track, using inside-out euro-step.
• Climbs right up on tackle’s toes before looping under on twists.
• Hits fluid arm-over transitions to beat protection inside.

Weaknesses​

• Works under the block and loses contain.
• Gets engulfed by size when blockers get into him.
• Size of tackles helps to wear down his rush energy.
• Lacks bull-rush power to collapse tackles into pockets.
• Rush plan needs more time to develop and diversify.
• Average pursuit speed and closing burst

NFL Comparison: Yannick Ngakoue

Weaknesses are a huge RED FLAG!!!!!!!!!!!!! Tell me again why we drafted him????
