If McEvoy is any good, you'll know it when the Patriots draft him.

McAvoy, where ever he is going to play he is going to be a work in progress. He isn't going to contribute a whole lot in 2016. I don't think I would classify him as a fearless hitter, you might have confused him with Caputo. I would say that McAvoy doesn't like contact I think he just lacks the technique. I just don't think he would make an immediate impact.Comment

Whatever they do, don't make him a TE. Rodgers will never throw to him, because he would be afraid of reducing his QBR.Originally posted by Deputy Nutz View Post"Never, never ever support a punk like mraynrand. Rather be as I am and feel real sympathy for his sickness." - WoodbuckComment

^LOLOne 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.

Granted, highlight film is selective, but the video below is how I formed my judgements about McEvoy. There is another video on YouTube I watched where McEvoy's tackling is more prominent. (I'll have to look for it.) But he sure looks like an aggressive and fairly sure tackler.

Just watch the highlights.
Patriots draft him and Belicheck utilizes him creatively for ten years. Bretsky hangs himself in his shower.Comment

That highlight reel had 3 maybe 4 tackles by McEvoy. It showed more TDs and INTs then tackles.Originally posted by Maxie the Taxi View PostGranted, highlight film is selective, but the video below is how I formed my judgements about McEvoy.

But Rodgers leads the league in frumpy expressions and negative body language on the sideline, which makes him, like Josh Allen, a unique double threat.

I would worry about someone who is 6-6 having the flexibility to be a good open field tackler. His future, if he has one, would seem to me to be as a WR/TE hybrid. A project for sure, but some pretty good TE's have been in this category.I can't run no more

What about Hunter Henry from Arkansas? 6'6'', seems to have good speed and hand/ball skills.Originally posted by call_me_ishmael View PostComment

Henry is probably the only TE with a shot at being a 1st round pick.Originally posted by Striker View PostI can't run no more

OK. If not McEvoy, maybe one of these two guys: Miles Killebrew 6'2" 223 lbs; Jeremy Cash 6'1" 208 lbs. I really would like to see TT draft a hard-hitting, speedy safety instead of another Jake Ryan at ILB. I won't be surprised if he does.

McEvoy is not really comfortable with tackling and hits from the Defensive side. You know how offensive players, when they know its coming, can prepare to absorb or deflect the blow to lessen the damage?
McEvoy doesn't have the D equivalent to that yet, where he can deliver maximum force but minimize the impact to himself. So many of his tackles look really awkward regardless of his size. My fear is that at safety, a Pro could take advantage of that and fake him out of his shoes regularly.
By training, he would be a better fit as an H back.Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.Comment

Not by TT. I'd drop over dead with a heart attack if TT passed on a DLman or OLman or OLB in favor of a TE. He just doesn't value them.Originally posted by Joemailman View PostOne time Lombardi was disgusted with the team in practice and told them they were going to have to start with the basics.

Last time the Packers had the 27th pick Ron Wolf took John Michels. Should TT trade up or down?Originally posted by red View PostI can't run no more
