YoloinOhio Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 Lawson would be such a perfect fit for this team http://mmqb.si.com/mmqb/2016/04/22/nfl-draft-clemson-pass-rushers-kevin-dodd-shaq-lawson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoloinOhio Posted April 22, 2016 Author Share Posted April 22, 2016 BENOIT: OK, third-and-7, a little later, you could probably call this the second true pass rush situation in the game except on this one youre both zone coverage droppers. LAWSON: We dropped at least three or four times [each game], so we both are very comfortable at dropping. Im droppingwhat was this call, Kevin? Toledo? I was dropping over the middle. I was a middle gut dropper. I have to play the crossing route that was coming around, so I ran with the crossers. I knew Alabama loved crossing routes and this was what we were going to try to take away from them. LAWSON: Im in the 6-technique playing the cutoff block. I knew Alabama had No. 16 matched up on us during the game. He was a little soft, I knew he was soft. Like our coach says, You should never let a tight end block you. We feel disrespected if a tight end blocks us. So I just mad-hatted him and knew he was intimidated and wanted no part of the action down on the goal-line Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Webster Guy Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 Wait.... don't you guys know you can't ever drop a D lineman back into coverage? It means you stink as a defensive coach and don't know what you're doing. Just ask Mario or half the posters on this board. Anyway, some mocks have Shaq and Dodd both going before we pick, and others have them both sitting there at 19. I'd love to know who we have ranked higher on the board right now.

I'd love to know who we have ranked higher on the board right now. Lawson is the better athlete and would fit our scheme as a "OLB" better. Lawson was top defensive player coming out of high school at one point Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2003Contenders Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 Would be happy with either one -- and you know Rex has all the intel on both given the Clemson connection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dropping a D lineman into coverage would be predicated on the lineman's ability to cover. Did you see Dareus in coverage? A coach has to know what a player is capable of, that's the dumb part.

thebandit27 Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 Both are good pass rushers, and both are versatile enough to play anywhere from 2-point to 9-tech to 3-tech. I'd be happy with either at 19, but something tells me that they'll both be gone by then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YoloinOhio Posted April 22, 2016 Author Share Posted April 22, 2016 What? A defense rusher who drops into coverage is SUCH a waster according to experts on this board..i absolutely love his attitude and approach. He's the anti-Mario. Combined with his talent, explosiveness, size and production --- I'm going to be so sad if he goes to a different team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am soo adverse to moving up. till you mention these guys. If they are close i want Whaley to be sure to call or answer that damn phone. No naps this year guys! They appear, from a noob standpoint to be such a good fit for Rex's Bills, or heck anyone's Bills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeGOATski Posted April 29, 2016 Share Posted April 29, 2016 Good video to watch. This was a great pick-up at #19. Like Bandit, I was skeptical that Lawson would even be there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reddogblitz Posted April 29, 2016 Share Posted April 29, 2016 I really don't know much about this guy, but the whole shoulder thing has me concerned. If he can get through this year without surgery that would seem to indicate he would be playing with pain which could affect his performance I would think. He is our guy and I hope for the best. Any comment from someone who knows more about this shoulder thing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
