This kid is 6'4", 230 lbs.
Ran a 4.38 40 yard dash!

Here is a link to some video of the guy

YouTube - Baldwin Wallace Football "Keith Darbut"


Obviously will need to add some weight, but has explosion and should be able to maintain that while adding bulk.
Who needs these 1st rounders with guys like this.

Sciz

If anybody really wanted him, he would have been picked late, perhaps over a certain OLB from Central Arkansas.

I was thinking more of an UDFA. The draft is over and I was just looking at potential guys who were not picked. I was also being kinda tongue and cheek since most people on this board were going crazy that an OLB was not drafted.

An OLB was drafted, you know.....the guy that came from THE University of Central Arkansas.

I agree if any UDFAs have chance to make a team (or practice squad) it is with the Pats - best players play. I'd love to see them bring in:

Keith Darbut, Baldwin Wallace Defensive End
Ugo Chinasa, Oklahoma State Defensive End
Marc Schiechl, Colorado Mines Defensive End
Blaine Sumner, Colorado Mines Defensive Tackle

The Pats drafted Markell Carter you know.
And they passed on Greg Romeus AS DID 32 other NFL teams at least 6x over.
So they were not alone in their assessment.
I have to think that his medicals are horrific on Romeus, even worse than Bowers.

As for your UDFA binky, it's gonna be a harder year than usual for UDFAs to catch on because of the labor situation in the NFL.

My god it is a tough room in here right now. I KNOW that the Patriots drafted an OLB. What I didn't realize is that we couldn't talk about any players that went undrafted that I, or anyone for that matter, liked because we did take one in the 6th round.
I had a guy that I liked that had potential on the practice squad that maybe could develop. He has the measurables and from the film has some upside.
I am really sorry that I shared this with the rest of you. Jeez.

My thought is that if they were going to target that type of OLB, it would probably have made more sense to go after Dontay Moch, who at least has a big school track record. I doubt a 230lb OLB would be on BB's radar screen. The problem with those types of OLB's which that highlight won't show, is the running play where they get creamed by a LT.

I'm all for getting interesting players in on a flyer, however I just don't think BB see's the pass rush need in the same way the fan base does.

But you're right, he looked good in that video (especially as he can double as a deep threat receiver, another need)

We finally got Bin Laden after almost ten years, maybe someday we will get a pass-rushing OLB or 2....... OMG, I'm talking crazy now!

No you specifically said that "an OLB was not drafted by the Patriots." That's factually untrue. I have no opinion on the UDFA guy you're talking about except that he sounds about 20-30 lbs light for a Pats outside linebacker. Feel free to share info, just don't get offended when you get corrected for miss-stating the facts.
