The money shot:

The Draft​

Jacas’s athletic profile will keep him out of Round 1, but he will overdeliver for any team that invests in him early in Round 2.

If this guy sucks, I can already see @captain stone calling him "Jackass".

Do you mean "if cap thinks he sux on a play or two"?

I'm

I just read that Landry is listed as a lb,I thought he was thought his position was edge

Technically the Pats front is 3-4 so he is a OLB rather than a DE. Draftniks refer to all edge(OLB&DE) rushers as edge. Edge isn't an official position

I was reading this in a dark bathroom, looked up at the mirror, and saw it all over my face.

Thanks for that.

I hope his wife can get on board with that!

One question: how will Vrabel feel about coaching him?

Will Mike want to work with him?

MikeV looked pretty happy when he talked to him on draft night.

I figured Vrabes would be over the moon to land him. I can’t help but think Mike will see a lot of himself in Jacas, attitude of not physically.

 

[Dec54]

He's holding his mom's hand as the pick was announced. You gotta love that.

He is one very happy man, so good to draft someone that really wants to be a Patriot

Is it sound to compare his RAS score with Keion White? Or different positions?
If comparable, I will like to see it for DE.
