[QUOTE="HardRightEdge, post: 872012"] I wouldn't get too carried away with the Covid thing in this regard. I've frequently commented on Gutekunst's "Draft 2.0" approach--he's brought in quite a few guys who had respectable to lower round draft grades that busted out of their first rodeo. Anyway, though Davis in particular graded out poorly and went undrafted he tested pretty freaky in hands/arms/wingspan, with other outstanding numbers for a guy his size: [URL]http://www.draftscout.com/dsprofile.php?PlayerId=1019029&DraftYear=2019[/URL] If you knew nothing about this guy but that data you might think of him as an ILB prospect. But as a guy who came in as a good athlete / underwhelming football player switching to ILB is an awfully steep hill to climb. Before claiming these guys the Packers had 64 players under contract, 26 to go. That's a lot of spots to fill even after adding draftees. Any other year and you'd say it's these guys or maybe 2 of 16 UDFAs. That doesn't sound virus related. [/QUOTE]
