buddha Posted April 30, 2022 Posted April 30, 2022 are one of these defensive ends going to play linebacker? can they cover a tight end? Quote
RedRamage Posted April 30, 2022 Posted April 30, 2022 It's second round... this is where the Lions typical swing and miss, so.... Quote
Motown Bombers Posted April 30, 2022 Posted April 30, 2022 That's disappointing but I'll give them the benefit of the doubt for now. Quote
Motor City Sonics Posted April 30, 2022 Author Posted April 30, 2022 GPS...........Game Play Speed.............for Paschal Quote

RedRamage Posted April 30, 2022 Posted April 30, 2022 From PFF: Paschal has a unique body type for the edge at 6-foot-3 and 278 pounds. He's a leverage demon who lived in opponents' backfields last year en route to a Power Five-leading 12.4% run-stop rate. They had him ranked 44th. Quote

That's what I am wondering. We've got the Okwara brothers, Hutch, Charles Harris, and now Paschel. I don't know who is going to play where. This guy is only 6'2 with shorter arms too.

Motown Bombers Posted April 30, 2022 Posted April 30, 2022 Okwara is coming off and Achilles and Harris isn't a sure thing so it's not like they are deep at pass rusher. At least you can't say they didn't ignore pass rushing. Quote
buddha Posted April 30, 2022 Posted April 30, 2022 they just signed okwara and harris to contracts, drafted a de at #2 and then spend another second rounder on a de? wtf? Quote
Mr.TaterSalad Posted April 30, 2022 Posted April 30, 2022 (edited) So who player LB for this team that's any good? Outside or inside? I know they'll run a lot of 2 LB sets, so they don't place a premium on the position, but unless Derrick Barnes or Julian Okwara take a step forward, we're going to be horrendous at this position and still won't be able to cover the middle of the field.

RandyMarsh Posted April 30, 2022 Posted April 30, 2022 Scouts inc. has him with a grade of 85 and the 7th best pass rusher (51st overall)so not a huge reach according to them. May seem like overkill going with another pass rusher but you can never have enough of them. Quote
Motor City Sonics Posted April 30, 2022 Author Posted April 30, 2022 When they took Alim MacNeil last year, a lot of us were "Who?" and he turned out to be pretty good. Same type of vibe with JP...........He'll probably line up more like a LB than a DE. Quote

Okwara is coming off a Achilles and Harris has had only one good season and are only committed for one year. I don't mind taking another pass rusher. I just wonder if this is the guy. Quote
Hongbit Posted April 30, 2022 Posted April 30, 2022 Wonder what Nakobe Dean did last night in Vegas after the draft. Quote

Get a rotation of guys.........always fresh players in there............. Quote
NYLion Posted April 30, 2022 Posted April 30, 2022 I don't know much about Paschal but he was getting a lot of 2nd round buzz late in the process so we'll just have to trust the scouting on this one. I like that they're building the lines at least. Quote

buddha Posted April 30, 2022 Posted April 30, 2022 i cant wait until round 3 when we take another defensive end. 1 Quote
Shinzaki Posted April 30, 2022 Posted April 30, 2022 (edited) Would have liked Brisket or Muma...but Paschal looks explosive on tape Edited April 30, 2022 by Shinzaki Quote
