Sleeper pick.Micah Parson

[kskboys]

well every draft mock has him top 10-15 no later those saying hes not worthy of our 10 well are they experts? more or less potential then LVE who we took what 19?

He's a faster tougher LVE.

 

[kskboys]

I am reminded that Wolf Hunter was our last bust drafting
LBers. Lee needs to retire and start his coaching career this 2021..so we draft replacements and design a hybrid defense lke using safeties as flowing hybrid LBers. Creative if it works. Don't know if we have the coaches to teach it. We shall see.

LVE had injury issues in college. We ignored them. What issues are you saying are being ignored from Parsons? If anything, people are nitpicking him apart.

 

[Bowdown27]

I understand when you started the thread you more than likely meant sleeper pick for us since most talk is about surtain horn pitts or o line.

I’m a big fan of parsons and would love him at 10. But I don’t think he’s a sleeper pick in the draft no matter what mocks say. Reason he’s the top ranked defensive player and he took a year off

 

[Flamma]

They’ll be better in Quinns defense.

People forget that back in 2018 when our DL weren't playing poorly either were they.

 

[rags747]

It’s Pitts or Parsons for me...

He wasn't a bust.

Year one he was very good. Got injured......HOLY ****!! A football player gets injured.....?

No way.

Parsons is rated quite a bit higher than Surtain. Surtain would be the consolation prize.

I wouldn't be upset. I think we need a CB more, but that's arguable. Whoever our D coordinator and scouts like more is good by me, at least between those two. However, I'm fairly confident they believe they can resurrect the duo of Jaylon and LVE, with Neal providing depth and coverage.

 

[Cowboysheelsreds053]

Parsons or Surtain would be my two targets. If they're gone I would trade down and grab a defensive player 5 or 6 spots down. Pitts is intriguing and I kind of hope he's already selected so we can focus on defense.

Yes, drop down but not to far to take Horn.

 

[DCwarrior]

Pass.. LinebAckers are not worth that pick unless they are a phenom and his skill set is just like Jaylons.

Minus the drop foot.

 

[Vanilla2]

They’ll be better in Quinns defense.

I hope

 

[CATCH17]

Minus the drop foot.

I want linebackers that fill their gap against the run and can cover the pass.

This style of backer I might be interested in if we ran a 3-4.

 

[aria]

He still has on going legal issues and seems like a dotard so he’s a perfect Jerry pick. Just don’t cry and claim conspiracy when he gets suspended. This guy is zeke 2.0.

 

[Vanilla2]

Right now it think calling 55 a bust is a bit of a reach. Now if he doesn’t get anywhere close to his rookie seasons performance then we move on. Parsons was my hope just based off positional need but I know nothing about the players other than what I see here

 

[The Quest for Six]

no more linebackers in the first and second rounds!

 

[Captain43Crash]

Pass.. LinebAckers are not worth that pick unless they are a phenom and his skill set is just like Jaylons.

His skill set is just like Jaylon’s? LOL.

So you think Parsons can only run in a straight line, has no lateral agility, and has below average football instincts?

 

[big dog cowboy]

It’s Pitts or Parsons for me...

Prepare to be disappointed.

 

[Redsfan_83]

Pass.. LinebAckers are not worth that pick unless they are a phenom and his skill set is just like Jaylons.

which skill set like 54's does he share? He has a left handed swipe? LOL. Won't matter if he is there anyhow, we will pick Farley just because they see him with the most upside, and our docs think his injury won't hamper him...all good at 100%

 

[buybuydandavis]

I see as our weak link our LBers who can't play 16 games if you add all their starts together. Plus depth has left for better contracts.

We have to replace the whole group or change to defense with no LBers which seems to be what we are. Doing signing safeties as hybrid LBers.

Times are changing folks.

Only Parsons, Horn, and Slater still available when we hit the clock. If so, I can totally see them taking Parsons.

 

[Redball Express]

He is the top ranked LB in this draft, that's not asleep.

What I mean as sleeper is LBer is not being touted as a direction of need. I think it's primary given the need. That's all.

 

[morasp]

They’ll be better in Quinns defense.

I think so too. They've both had good seasons and Quinn knows LBs.

I think LB is a need but probably fourth or fifth after DT, CB, Safety, and edge.
