Amobi Okoye

[hawaii50]

He is 6'2 even 287lbs, very fast, and will be a 20 year old rookie.

Coming out, Tommie Harris was 6'3 287lbs, very fast, and was a 20 year old rookie.


I'm just saying...

that's exactly who i think of when i read about okoye. if he could have that sort of presence it could do wonders for the defense. need or not, he might definitely be the BPA at 16 if we were to get that lucky. as of now, looks like he'll be a top ten pick.

[ahaha]

This guy is going to be a top five pick. If, by some miracle, he drops to 16 I can't see the Packers passing. Sure, the d-line is pretty good, but it's not dominant. This guy is just what the Pack needs to make the next step. A guy that could consistently put pressure up the middle. That makes it hard for the quarterback to step up in the pocket. How many times, in the NFL, do you see the DE's making good rushes on the outside only to watch the QB step up in the pocket and make the throw?
Good size, great athleticism, and very smart. Plus, if he can excel after skipping grades and going to college at age 15, then he obviously has a maturity beyond his years.
I would be extatic if the Pack got Okoye.
