atlbillsfan1975 Posted March 24, 2012 Share Posted March 24, 2012 link No matter what you hope this guy succeeds. Do not know much about him, where is he projected? Like stats and measurables. Sounds like a good value pick maybe in rounds 3-4? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted March 24, 2012 Share Posted March 24, 2012 I was just going to post this. Irvin is a freak who just might be best pass rusher in this draft. He is raw but an outstanding athlete (4.38 at 245 pounds) who just might be athletic enough to mirror Gronkowki. OLB is an area of need- and you can never have too many passrushers. Irvin is rising up draft boards and would be a great addition to our attacking d. LT, CB, WR are our other top needs IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QCity Posted March 24, 2012 Share Posted March 24, 2012 Highlight reel - lol at him destroying that tackle at 2:45 He was moving up in the rounds recently, but he got arrested for destruction of property last week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beastly Dareus Posted March 24, 2012 Share Posted March 24, 2012 I dream of him falling to the Bills in round 3. Really like him. But the combine help improve his status to the 2nd round. Hes my 2nd favorite defender in this draft after Courtney Upshaw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FluffHead Posted March 24, 2012 Share Posted March 24, 2012 Wasn't impressed with him when I watched wvu this season. He's fast but he's small. Seemed like a one trick pony as a pass rusher in the big least conference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don't stop billievein Posted March 24, 2012 Share Posted March 24, 2012 These players that get in trouble in college are regular college kids doing stupid things. If you take an athlete like this guy and put him in a situation where he can be around positive role models he will be just fine. He looks really explosive and if we could pick him up in rnd 2 that would be great. Don't think he will make it to rnd 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsGuyInMalta Posted March 24, 2012 Share Posted March 24, 2012 Unbelievable talent, ten-cent brain. Still though, it would be something to yell Bruuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuce after a sack again... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
....lybob Posted March 24, 2012 Share Posted March 24, 2012 What I like more about the Irvin even more than the 4.38-4.5 forty is the 4.03 20 yard shuttle, that's CB type movement, on the minus side I guess one of the reasons he was just a pass rush specialist was that he had problems learning assignments- you can be superman but if you don't now where you are suppose to be and who you're suppose to cover it's going to be hard to be anything but a one trick pony.

San Jose Bills Fan Posted March 24, 2012 Share Posted March 24, 2012 Wasn't impressed with him when I watched wvu this season. He's fast but he's small. Seemed like a one trick pony as a pass rusher in the big least conference. You're wrong. He's 6'3" and 245 pounds. He's a very physical player who played against 300 pound tackles as a 5 technique defensive end in a 3 man front. He held the point very well and plays a very violent and tenacious game with a great motor. What I like more about the Irvin even more than the 4.38-4.5 forty is the 4.03 20 yard shuttle, that's CB type movement, on the minus side I guess one of the reasons he was just a pass rush specialist was that he had problems learning assignments- you can be superman but if you don't now where you are suppose to be and who you're suppose to cover it's going to be hard to be anything but a one trick pony. Not only was his 20-yard shuttle by far the best at the combine but his 3-cone drill also put everyone else to shame (Keuchly, Zach Brown, etc). His movement skills are elite… as good and better than Von Miller's times were last year. His tape shows great instincts and football IQ so I disagree with your theory that he had trouble learning assignments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Formerly Allan in MD Posted March 24, 2012 Share Posted March 24, 2012 From the pic and background, doesn't appear the type you'd want to run into in a dark alley, let alone on a football field. Interesting! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ganesh Posted March 24, 2012 Share Posted March 24, 2012 Wasn't impressed with him when I watched wvu this season. He's fast but he's small.

Like We drafted one a few years ago from Bruce Smiths Alma Mater....Fail to remember the guy...I thought he bounced around and signed wtih the Steelers...

LT, CB, WR are our other top needs IMO After watching many games of his he is not the best pass rusher in the draft however having him at OLB rush the passer like Von Miller did, I would be all for it, he could be there in the second.

Carder is as instinctive and way more physical than Kuechly just not as fast and KP is a very physical corner who makes big plays. NOOO this dude is a thug head case. He's a fast Burfect No he's not and no one is as big of train wreck "Defect". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mob16151 Posted March 24, 2012 Share Posted March 24, 2012 I like Irvin physically he's a monster. However it's hard to project him since WVU IIRC runs a 3-3-5 defense. I'd be all aboard Irvin in the late first,early second though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjmac Posted March 24, 2012 Share Posted March 24, 2012 No thank you to Irvin. Unbelievable physical talent, but too much of a head case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
