Lame, he should have gotten Eslinger. He has shown time and time again he is solid and can play inside spot on the line. Plus, he is a zone-blocking specialist!!!
- Tackle Tony Moll, Sr. - Mill is a converted tight end who has 11 career catches and four touchdowns. The 280-pound senior was one of the surprises of spring ball and should be able to use his athleticism to become a much needed reliable pass blocker.
It says Darrell Adams on ESPN. Not a bad player. Some potential there.
DE Darrell Adams
Height: 6-foot-4
Weight: 270 pounds
Pros: Darrell is a big mobile lineman who has played both tackle and end over his career and combines fine size, mobility and speed to compete for an NFL job. He has a big frame that should allow him to carry additional weight and fill out in the 270- to 285-pound range. He is a ‘tweener lineman the size potential to play inside and the athleticism to man the outside position. He is a big physical hardworking athlete with talent and fine production over his career. He is best suited for the strong-side end position in a 4-3, though there are some scouts who see him as a three-technique tackle in a 4-3 set. He has the body type and mobility to be an end in a 3-4 scheme, though no experience playing in that alignment. He gives good effort and displays fine instincts to consistently diagnose the play and locate the ball.
Cons: He is fluid in his movement along the line, but needs to get stronger in the upper body especially and learn better hand technique to separate sooner from blockers. As with many players of his body type and level of development, he will at times have a tendency to play too tall and look stiff when asked to change directions and pursue. He needs to show also that he can do a better job anchoring against the double-team blocks, but he usually holds the point of attack well.
Numbers: As a senior, he started 10 games at end and had 40 tackles with 11.5 tackles for loss and one sack. At the Combine he ran the 40-yard dash in a disappointing 5.1 seconds with a 27-inch vertical jump, a 9-1 broad jump and did 22 reps in the 225-pound bench press.
Skinny: Has the athletic ability and aptitude to make the jump from Division I-AA, though he probably needs a few seasons before contributing. Excellent late gamble with upside and fine development prospect.
