Walker little, LT Stanford film study

[Rayman70]

I watched a complete game of him against Notre Dame and I came away impressed. His footwork,hand placement and awareness is elite IMO. This guy looks like the real deal. I am going to say it, he's a top 5 tackle and isn't being talked about nearly enough. Where do you guys see him going? I will speculate and say some team will fall in love with him and drat him late round 1, early 2nd. Dallas needs this guy. He is on par with Sewell and Slater...and Darrisaw. Reminds me of Bryan Bulaga.He is a plug and play starter day 1.He plays with heavy powerful hands., but his feet are what makes him special. Great instincts.I'm not very good at posting vids here, so if someone wants to post a vid of him on this thread, please do. I came away blown away. I think the reason why he's not being talked about his he has a smaller body of work than others. Give me your thoughts and feed back.Thanks.

He dominated Notre Dame btw..

 

[Carson]

He’s dominant. But 1 game in two seasons scares me. He was one of the consensus #1 overall picks preseason.

I’ve seen him go round 1 and I’ve seen him slide to the 3rd. I won’t waste a 1 but a 3 is a no brainer

was he hurt or did he opt out?

Love that name, at 6'7" he's anything but little. I've been taking him in my mocks in round three.

as have I. If he is still there in round 3 I think Dallas would run his card up to the podium quickly lol..They would be giddy. I thiink he's an upgrade from Steele at RT in the case that Collins isn't ready to go week 1. I think that might be where you play him early on, RT.

he is a mountain of a man and doesnt move that way..he moves with ease and has plenty of power to hold the point. I think he's a day 2 steal.

Definitely, the way our OL was injured last year and the fact the Dak will probably be our QB makes it essential that we secure the OL. Add to that the way the Bucs exploited weaknesses in the Chiefs and Packers OL in the playoffs and made top tier QBs look very ordinary we might actually look sooner.

 

[fivetwos]

There seems to be an absolute ton of tackles in this draft.

I suspect we will get one in the 3rd, and hear we had a 2nd round grade on him and how we got another steal.

Then the guy doesn't dress. Meanwhile, Swiss cheese defense.

Thats a really good point.

I hope he falls to day 3. Perfect project tackle with the upside of possibly being a starter at LT in a few years.

I was really surprised he opted out this season. Was being hyped as a first rounder in 2019 before the injury and could of worked his way back to that hype if he played well this year. Cost himself millions by opting out.

pertaining to the D..yeah, our interior dline is trash..as our linebacker group is. We are a weak finesse bunch in the middle. We need some mean nasty thugs in the middle to help our deficient back 7.I feel Gallimore is a nice building block, but he needs a guy next to him that is also an alpha dog.We need 2 from this draft or we need to get a guy like Malcom brown. I'm not a fan of bringing in a broken down older guy again like McCoy. Does us little good.

 

[Rayman70]

if we can also solidify the oline, it helps the defense too. Keeps them off the field.We can run clock. Tampa actually did this more than many realize. Thats partly how they contained mahomes, other than stellar defense.

yeah, someone gave him bad advice. The kid would at very least, be a nice swing tackle that could work his way into the lineup.

 

[Carson]

was he hurt or did he opt out?

He played one game in 2019 and was injured. Opted out in 2020

I don’t think I’d call Little a project. He was rated higher than Sewell, Slater, Darrisaw pre injury and opt out. Super talented but will slide due to injury and not much solid film in two seasons.

 

[tm1119]

As long as the knee he had the surgery on checks out (don’t see why it wouldn’t 2 years later) I doubt Little falls as far as most are saying here. If he even lasts until 44 I think that’s where we’ll have to take him. LT’s don’t last long in the draft and there’s no real reason to think that the talent that made Little the #1 LT in this class went away.

he sounds like a 2nd round will mcclay special. lol..and I would not be mad.

That is why mocks are always so hard for me to be sold on certain players lol!

If we knock free agency out of the park, or sign a stater or two, I love the Little pick. If we do nothing, it worries me drafting depth and eventual starters

 

[Rayman70]

many might go nuts if we draft him at 44..but in time it will prove to be a good pick.
