Twitter: Why Richard pushed for Hill over Thornhill

[Number1]

While I appreciate this... Hill was mostly a blindly penetrating DT after the backfield than a guy that looked to stuff the run.
He's a 3T when the team needs a stout 1T for those runs.

very true based on the the I've seen

but he will play at D1 also, that's Rod for ya

Before the draft I said Thornhill could play SS to some extent.

I posted a long rebuttal to the OP in the thread below (see link) who said Thornhill was a terrible tackler and could not play SS.

My rebuttal is on the 2nd page of the thread:

Thirsty.

If we can get even some penetration in middle of the line on a consistent bases I think it immediately gets us 15 more sacks this year. Not to mention the mistakes it will create. Want to beat the best QBs? Put pressure in their face from the middle.

And, I think that's how Woods will get his interceptions. If the QB has to hurry his throws, advantage to the dbs.

It should prove interesting so see which of Thornhill and Hill has the most successful career.

I do believe Kris Richard made the best choice, however. I think Hill is simply more talented.

"He's on the come"

Is this an Americanism I am unfamiliar with?

Sounds a bit gross.

Because I don't believe they are.

They could be right, but other scouts also saw it way differently.

That makes it worrisome for me, while it won't bother others.

Team hasn't earned the benefit of the doubt when it comes to scouting in recent history?

My guess is he actually said, "He's on the come up."

I've never heard anyone say, "He's on the come", in my life.

That's it but I've heard it without the up as well for decades.

on the come up

I got some thangs in the works but I can't talk about it yet. It's definitely on the come up, word ta mother.
