Texas fan in Georgia Posted February 4 Share Posted February 4 curious out of the guys that are about to be drafted, who do y’all see as a starter during their rookie season? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Gerry Hamilton Posted February 4 Moderators Share Posted February 4 Great Q ... So much depends on situation. Could see AD Mitchell in the right scenario. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taxsaver Posted February 4 Share Posted February 4 I would think both Sweat and Murphy will start. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert Gilbert Posted February 5 Share Posted February 5 Depending on which team drafts each player, I can see Mitchell, Worthy, Sweat, Murphy, and Sanders all starting. For example, if KC were to draft either Worthy or Mitchell I believe they could start but not is Miami does. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone is pinpointing Worthy to the Chiefs because they have such a need for speed and receiver. But I am thinking some other teams are going to be interested because of those traits and trying to emulate what has worked in KC and in Miami of late.

I'll go with Murphy and Sweat above all others. Sweat may only start on first and second downs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am a bit confused by this idea that Sweat is a 2 down player. PFF had him with an 85.3 pass rush grade. That is above the #1 DT (Newton) and his 84.5 grade. I question if Sweat has the stamina to play 6 consecutive snaps, but I dont get this idea that Sweat is a poor pass rusher as a DT. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d guess because most of his pass rush wins were pure power. That’s not gonna happen in the NFL as regularly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators CJ Vogel Posted February 5 Moderators Share Posted February 5 AD, Worthy and Murphy are for sure in my eyes. Sweat will play a lot. Depending on who drafts Christian Jones, there could be a path for early PT due to necessity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is most DTs. The point is I think people are completely under-rating his pass rushing skills. He is not Aaron Donald, but he was one of the better interior rushers in the country. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
