Street are saying James Pearce is a crashout waiting to happen. Anger issues.

Draft this man. We need more thugs
Sure, let's get our own Burfict. That won't backfire ever. Surely he won't rack up penalties at the worst time and cost us in the playoffs.

We already suck in the playoffs. Why not switch it up?

When we interview players, the only question that should be asked of pass rushers.... "Can you create turnovers and get sacks?" If Yes, this interview continues. If no, this interview is done. Same with OL & DL, if they aren't strong enough, I don't want them.

what a bizarre idea and a useless question

why would anyone ever say no lol

I would love Ezeiruaku at 27.

Tested great. Was super productive in College.

He just plays so refined and fluid. Great first step with a good range of pass rush moves which allows him to win so many different ways.

Bit undersized perhaps but I think his IQ and technical ability make up for it. Boston College worked out ok for us a couple of years ago.

Shemar Stewart is really intriguing. I think he should definitely be on the ravens radar.
You’re letting the combine influence you

Idk man I just don’t like what I see on his tape. I hear this freak athlete term with him but I damn sure don’t see it, I don’t see the production or the disruption, it’s just meh.

This is the guy I’ve really warmed up to as a first rounder. Give me ezeirauku in 1 and omarr Norman-Lott in 2 and watch our pass rush become actually unstoppable for 4 years

I was intrigued by him before the combine but of course his combine performance does help. I think he definitely has some untapped potential that I would trust Chuck Smith to help him with if he was apart of the team. I've still have some more research to do on him but he definitely is intriguing to me.

According the PFF he has 38 pressures in 2024. With his size and strength im intrigued how he may fair being used like Zadarius Smith or Pernell Mcphee on obvious passing downs . I think he could possibly be pretty good in that role as a pass rusher

They can see tape for that.. need to ask their ass “ will you continue to get sacks and turnovers in the big lgs”

How come?
I just love the way he plays the game. He's not the athletic marvel type but the mentality is there. I'm not saying I'd take him round 1 or anything, but he just feels like the type of guy that outplays wherever he goes.

How come?
He’s a fucking beast, basically. On tape I see a guy where you can throw the metrics and conventional thinking out the window, because he dominates the man across from him and lives in the backfield. Doesn’t look the prettiest doing it, he’s huge, he kinda stands upright, but he’s just a certified asskicker.

If he busts or even just becomes a meh kinda rotational guy, I’ll humbly eat crow, but I think he’s gonna be a stud.

The whole Ole Miss defense is fun to watch but I'm particularly interested in Jared Ivey. I just really loves the way he plays, he knows what he is and how he has to win. He's a great fit.

If you haven't caught on, Bradyn Swinson also has crazy flashes.
