[QUOTE="OldSchool101, post: 833858, member: 10086"] I was just reading this thread and thinking about the responses here and online about Rashan. He’s obviously largely a “projection” athlete. There are several players in this draft that have what I would call elite-potential. The most notable are guys like Quinnen (my favorite) and Bosa etc.. but Rashan Gary has a similar potential at much less draft capital cost. Gary is largely a young and undeveloped player and his stats show that (3 yrs stats) by comparison. But had he had double digit sacks for 2 years running? there’s not even a remote chance that he slides to us at #12 He’d easily be a top 3 overall non QB after his stellar combine results came in. So in a strange sense, I’m glad he doesn’t have the stats because no way does he sport a GB Jersey if he has huge stats. He could absolutely be an average type 1st rounder and just be serviceable as a starter, which I think is his floor. (I don’t really see people disagreeing with that). He has the ceiling of a top 5 selection overall in many drafts but at a fraction of the cost. The draft is like the stock market, you don’t get guarantees.. not even at #1. After watching several highlight reels of him.. I see similarities of a young Nick Perry in their playing styles, but he looks like the turbo version of Nick. My bigger concern for him playing in various systems is making sure he gets utilized properly to fit his strengths. I believe in GB, Pettine has an above average knack for utilizing players property to their strengths. Look at what he’s done with Fackrell..He made an incredible jump and if he can put Kyler in a position to go double digits? He’s going to absolutely kill it with Rashan, but don’t expect Rashan to get pushed around like a rag doll like Fackrell did his rookie season. [/QUOTE]
