[QUOTE="HardRightEdge, post: 770689"] See, now you got me looking at tape. I'm not liking that. In that mid-round group I kinda like Yaidom though he's a perimeter guy which we could also use. Stewart's habit of pressing guys flat footed on stick routes bugs me. To reiterate, I'm not in any way thinking in terms of Key in the first round. I don't know what explanation he may have for his issues last season, performance and otherwise. But I do have an observation on the drills. So, the first half of the 3-cone is 15 yards worth of the 20 yard shuttle which measures lateral quickness and agility. I don't think Key lost time there given his good shuttle time. It's followed by a 90 degree turn left, a 180 degree turn, and ending with a 90 degree turn right. It wouldn't surprise me if he lost time on the 180 degree turn given his height and lanky build. So the question becomes how often does an edge rusher need to make an 180 degree turn in space? Not often. Chubb and Davenport had worse times in both the shuttle and the 3-cone. The high-waisted, long-legged Clowney, for all his freakish Combine numbers, ran a 4.43 shuttle and a 7.27 3-cone probabably losing time in dipping to touch the ground. When looking at the older tape of Key, what stands out is his 2-yard dash, the burst off the snap, and how he uses that 82" wingspan and those 10" hands. One concern, among the other obvious ones, is how effective he'd be carrying more weight to be a 3-down player. His loggy performance last season has been partially attributed to playing at 265 lbs., though that may have been bad weight in being out of shape coming off his "vacation". Frankly, if his story is at all plausible and he drops like a rock to the 3rd. round, I'd take him even as only a rotational pass rush specialist. Key, warts and all, sure beats Fackrell in the third round, a pick I did not like. [/QUOTE]
