He was probably #7 on Seattle’s board, and they got him at 16.

Dallas Turner
Overview
Long and athletic with the explosive traits needed to become an impactful NFL pass rusher. Turner’s first-step quickness and elite closing burst are important building blocks, but he still needs to work on his process from Point A to Point B. He hasn’t learned to create the space and angles needed to consistently attack the edges, but that should come with better hand development and a more diversified approach. A team would be wise to widen him out and allow him a better runway to ignite his burst and overwhelm tackles with his speed. He’s added 20 pounds since coming to Alabama, but he struggles at times to stack and shed run blockers or set a firm edge. Turner’s frame and game are much less developed than Will Anderson Jr.’s coming out of Alabama last year, so it could take time for him to make his mark as a starting 3-4 outside linebacker.
Strengths
History of playing for winning programs in high school and college.
Sudden hands are first into blocker’s frame as edge-setter.
Disruptive initial quickness to beat blocks and stop runs in the backfield.
Speed and stride to stress offensive tackles in race to the rush turn.
Builds tremendous momentum at the turn if allowed too much space.
Possesses elite closing burst chasing down backs and sacking passers.
Athleticism to soak up play-extending quarterbacks with his secondary rush.
Able to peel off and drag running back into the flat in coverage.
Weaknesses
Below-average anchor to prevent being displaced by force.
Needs better play strength to improve block take-on.
Doesn’t always play with ideal urgency when not directly challenged.
Takes too many shots at winning rush with speed-to-power.
Needs to become a more skilled hand-fighter at the top of the rush.
Rush is currently missing instincts and counters associated with high sack production.I can't run no more
With that lawless crowd
While the killers in high places
Say their prayers out loud
But they've summoned, they've summoned up
A thundercloud

Josh Jacobs will run over Turner, but the kid is going to eventually be a good pass rusher.It's such a GOOD feeling...13 TIME WORLD CHAMPIONS!!Comment

Why do we need more picks? We need quality, not quantity. The quality will be there.Originally posted by jklowan View PostIt's such a GOOD feeling...13 TIME WORLD CHAMPIONS!!Comment

True, but they do have needs that Day 3 picks might have helped. But I'm not trying to pass as an authority; you've got your ear firmly against the ground there and I've been away from Minnesota for years, so I defer to you on any matter of opinion.Originally posted by Rastak View Post
As for Rodgers, I'm honestly a little skeptical that he'll even be a short term answer. I think he's gong to have one of the worst years of his career in 24, because he'll turn 41 this season, he'll get of to a slow start, fighting through the rust of a full year away from the game, and be surrounded by a very incomplete team populated with players he has no familiarity with and no rhythm or chemistry. I don't expect much more than an above-.500 season, but not by much, and by the end of the year I doubt either he or the Jets will be all that eager to try again in 25. I'd guess that 2025 is 50-50.
Were you thinking the Jets mightg have gone McCarthy?.Comment

Waist vs waste. Probably want your beard to your waist.Originally posted by red View PostBut Rodgers leads the league in frumpy expressions and negative body language on the sideline, which makes him, like Josh Allen, a unique double threat.
