2. RONNIE STANLEY | Notre Dame 6056|312 lbs|4JR Las Vegas, Nevada (Bishop Gorman) 3/18/1994 (age 22) #78

BACKGROUND: A four-star offensive tackle recruit out of high school, Stanley narrowed his college choice to Notre Dame, Nebraska and Arkansas, choosing the Irish – also a standout prep player in basketball, his first love. He appeared in two games in 2012 as a true freshman before nagging injuries sidelined him, taking a redshirt to preserve a year of eligibility. With Zack Martin entrenched at left tackle, Stanley earned the starting right tackle job as a redshirt freshman in 2013 and started all 13 games, pushing incumbent starter Christian Lombard to guard. After Martin graduated, Stanley moved to the left side in 2014 and started all 13 games as a redshirt sophomore, earning Notre Dame Offensive Lineman of the Year honors. He returned to South Bend for his redshirt junior season in 2015 and again started all 13 games at left tackle, earning consensus All-American and Notre Dame Offensive Player of the Year honors. Stanley elected to give up his remaining year of eligibility to enter the 2016 NFL Draft.
STRENGTHS: Looks the part with an ideal frame, girth and length for the position…above average set-up quickness and movement skills to mirror rushers and control himself in space…doesn’t play tight, displaying natural flexibility and bend to open his hips and redirect – highly impressive for a 315-pound body…recovers well with terrific reactive athleticism to shuffle, sink and anchor while maintaining his wide base…rangy player who can get to the second level and block on the perimeter…proper pad level off the snap and looks to extend and punch with his reach…uses his long arms and natural lean to absorb and slow rushers, keeping them from his frame…has shown the ability to generate force and control defenders in the run game…generally works hard to finish with a physical nature…reliable character on and off the field…athletic bloodlines – father (Ron Sr.) played football at Division-II Tuskegee, mother (Juli) played college basketball at UCLA and younger brother (Robert) currently plays linebacker at Fresno State…durable starting experience, starting every game the last three seasons – 39 career starts (26 at left tackle, 13 at right tackle).
WEAKNESSES: High-cut and needs to consistently drop his hips off the snap…not a power player and lacks ideal functional strength for the position to move bodies in the run game or consistently anchor…rushers can too easily attack his body and put him on his heels…sloppy hand placement in his shuffle, struggling to keep his elbows inside to recoil and handle counter moves – ends up hugging and holding too often…suffers mechanical breakdowns throughout the course of a game and his focus too easily wavers – high number of false start penalties on his college résumé…can get to the second level with ease, but needs to be more aggressive in space, waiting for defenders instead of attacking…room to improve his blocking angles to consistently seal run lanes…too much finesse in his game and needs to bring the same aggressive mentality each snap – doesn’t play with consistent confidence and needs to be more of a glass-eater…didn’t miss a start at Notre Dame the last three seasons, but required surgery after the 2012 season due to a chronic elbow injury he suffered in high school.
SUMMARY: A three-year starter, Stanley started all 39 games the last three seasons for the Irish, first at right tackle and then taking over the left tackle duties for 2014 first round pick Zack Martin – the last time a player other than Martin or Stanley started at left tackle for Notre Dame was Oct. 2010. Boasting an ideal NFL frame for the position, Stanley is a dancing bear on the edges with God-given athleticism, long arms and above average feet to handle speed and mirror rushers in space. He still needs to develop functional power and fine-tune his mechanics before he’s ready for NFL snaps, but his upside and athletic skill-level for man his size makes him a very attractive NFL prospect, making his draft “value” different for each team – not a top-tier pro prospect due to his inconsistencies and effort issues, but his traits and potential at a position of priority will likely have him overdrafted in the top-10 picks.

Ronnie Stanley
School: Notre Dame
Position: T
Positive: Three-year starter that's lined up at both left and right tackle. Large, fundamentally sound offensive tackle best on the right side. Plays with a degree of quickness, gets leverage on opponents and strong at the point. Explosive, turns defenders from the line or controls them in pass protection. Very effective with his hands quickly getting them into opponents and properly places them. Keeps his head on a swivel, works well with line mates and a terrific position blocker.
Negative: Must improve his blocking balance. Struggles sliding off the edge. Cannot adjust to the blitz.
Analysis: Stanley was a consistent player at Notre Dame but has athletic and scheme limitations for the next level. Though Stanley offers starting potential he may never be the dominant tackle prospect many presently predict.

pakers due to draft just after 11 ct
One time Lombardi was disgusted with the team in practice and told them they were going to have to start with the basics. He held up a ball and said: "This is a football." McGee immediately called out, "Stop, coach, you're going too fast," and that gave everyone a laugh.

if the pick is in then fucking announce it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I watched a couple of games where Stanley looked like the best OL in the draft, but he a couple of other games where he struggled (although one was against Clemson). I think Jacksonville got a steal. Props to my boy, Carson Wentz.

With the 7th pick, the 49ers select Jim Harbaugh, Head Coach, Michigan
I liked Bosa much more as a 4-3 DE than 3-4 OLB, so that was a head scratcher for me. Although I like Elliott, there's no way I would have taken him over some other guys that were on the board.

Deforest Buckner
School: Oregon
Position: DE
Positive: Three-year starter awarded All-America and all-Conference honors last season after career totals of 83 tackles, 17 tackles for loss and 10.5 sacks. Also broke up 5 passes. Large, athletic defensive line prospect with great upside potential. Strong, explosive and powerful. Double teamed by opponents but holds his ground and rarely off his feet. Bulrushes blockers up the field, gets penetration and consistently plays with leverage. Forceful but at the same time fluid moving in every direction of the field. Works hard defending the run and shows the ability to pursue down the line of scrimmage. Keeps his feet and hands active throughout the action. Big enough and strong enough to split double-team blocks and makes a large number of plays in the opponents backfield.
Negative: Possesses more of a short burst and lacks great closing speed. Must do more than rely on sheer power to get off blocks.
Analysis: Buckner was highly rated coming into the season then met expectations in 2015. He's displayed consistent progress on the field and is a three down defender that can lineup at end in a three-man front or tackle in a four-man line.
