This thread is for players who both impressed, and did not impress that DEN might be in the market for that played or are playing in a bowl game.
As a football junkie, I watched all the bowl games so far, and heres my list.
IMPRESSIVE.
CHAD JONES SAFETY LSU
This dude is a freakin player. Period. He's ultra athletic, huge, 6'3" 230, fast, a great in the box tackler/hitter, with good range.
But more importantly, he a "playmaker". A little raw, but a really good football player. This guy is what Taylor Mays was supposed to be.
STEFEN WISNIEWSKI CENTER PENN ST
You want a hard nosed, smart center with a a nasty attitude?
Here ya go. This guy is great. I had not scene a lot of tape of him, but i have watched about 5 games in his career, and hes just plain good. Dude can road grade, but more importantly gives really good protection to his QB. Smart. Vocal leader on his team. He played a great game against LSU.
DAN WILLIAMS NT TENN
Let me say it again, this dude is a freakin player! Heres your NT if you want one. Did anyone else see this guy!?!?!? Hes a freakin beast!! Just a force up the middle with great penetration and commands double teams. The rest of his team didnt help him out much, but he was awsome. Hes in really good shape too. His hips and waist are huge, but he really doesnt have a big boiler like Mt Cody. Hes in really good shape, and i think for DENs purposes, he would be the ideal NT in this draft. Huge motor.
JARED ODRICK DE PENN ST
I didnt think this guy was as polished, and as fast as he is. He is a true 3-4 DE at the next level, that can really dominate. Needs a bit more consistency, but hes a player.
RICO MCCOY LB TENN
Everywhere. Making plays all over the place. Awsome player, with serious ability, but hes a LB!?!? Very much a "Woodyard" type of player, but nonetheless, a really fun player to watch who could transistion to the NFL as a SS/LB hybrid.
NOT IMPRESSED
ERIC BERRY SAFETY TENN
He seemed out of it. Didnt play well to me. I guess maybe my expectations were too high. I dont think hes worth a really high pick if your a team in need of alot of of help like STL or CLE. I think he could become a really good player in the NFL, but he seemd lost when backed up against his own end zone. he was out of position numerous times.
TONY PIKE QB CINNCINATI
Not good under pressure, not good on the run, not good throwing the football more than 20 yards. Yeah, he sucks. Oh, and he looks like Ben Rothlesberger on a diet. guy needs to eat. Seriously.
Theres more, but i need to think about it.....
