[QUOTE="Dantés, post: 723208, member: 12283"] I would not have balked at Lawson at #108, but I certainly preferred Biegel. That likely has a lot to do with what I value and view as predictive in pass rushers. Not that measurables are all that matter, but when considering them I always look at 3 Cone and Broad Jump for EDGE players. Biegel jumped 118" and his three cone was a sterling 6.92. Lawson came in with a 114" jump and a 7.46 3 Cone. That doesn't doom Lawson by any means, but it does place him in a a category of athletes that has proven much more volatile when it comes to NFL success. While Biegel struggled through an injury last year, Lawson has a much longer track record when it comes to durability concerns. He missed all of 2014 and most of 2015. Apparently his medicals moving forward looked a little scary? I also like that Biegel isn't making a scheme transition. There's nothing wrong with converting 43DE's to 34OLB's. Teams do it all the time. But it helps when guys have experience in your scheme. Personally, I think the Packers lucked out that Biegel was slowed by an injury last year. Had he been healthy and therefore more productive, I don't think he gets very close to #108. His sacks had gone from 2 to 7.5 to 8 from 2013-2015, and his hurries from 1 to 4 to 8. We will never know, but I think he was poised for a 10-12 sack season in Wisconsin last year if he wasn't dealing with that foot. He may prove me wrong, but I think Lawson's ceiling is as a poor man's Nick Perry. [/QUOTE]
