Jaiden Bryant vs DJ Jacobs

Its not really silly, just not 100% fool proof. They do rely on measurables and testing numbers which are a great indicator of future potential but you also have to turn on the film and check the production and intangibles. Especially after they seen him go up against IMG and balled out
The film should trump everything. Production always translates
 
If I can only take one give me Bryant, I will take power over speed all day. Good OTs will adjust to speed, but when a guy is pushing your **** in down after down that gets demoralizing real quick.
Correct, and there’s really no way to counter a guy that’s just flat out stronger than you.
 
Just shows how silly the system is
I think that normally those "required" measurables are really good indicators of success at the collegiate level and definitely the pro level. Reuben Bain is the exception to this and not the norm. He has so many other factors that allow him to overcome the height and arm length concerns.
 
No.

His arm length isn't really a big deal IMO because he's a power to speed rusher, which means the #1 tool that he'll utilize is contact initiation. He's not try to just run past OT's, his first move is to initiate contact to knock the OT off balance & then uses his speed to get to the QB.

If he were purely a speed rusher, then yes arm length would be more important.

2nd, neither one will be necessarily ready day 1, because we already have multiple DE's that will be playing ahead of them by the time either one gets on campus, so neither one would be expected to start as TF's.

Also, they're 2 different positions. One is a Strong Side DE & the other is a Weak Side.

Bryant is a 3-Out/4-In/4-Out rusher, while Jacobs is a 5-Out/6- through 9 rusher.
So your saying we should get
Both!!!!😊
 
Jason Taylor and Miami have to Strike while the Iron is hot….we just placed 2 Edge defenders in the 1st round, off of 4 big stage playoff games with millions watching. Failure to sell that success and vision to the elite Edge defenders in the very next class would be a significant missed opportunity. have to land one of these 2, and from my vantage point it seems the best shot is the Bryant kid.

Who says we're not selling that?..are you aware? of what there doing or not doing?.....if it's quite with Jacob's that's the loafers working in silence!!

of course we ARE selling that…my point is if we cant “successfully sell” and convert Elite Edge players THIS cycle…its a hard miss considering the recent success at the position and elevated profile of team.
 
Lot of South Florida studs who put up video game numbers didn’t produce **** at the next level.
It matters how they do it, bain won with a deep bag of technique and fundamentals even in high school. Some only win by being bigger, stronger and faster
 
Anyone who doesn’t want to be on this championship formed team for rings are concerned about elite competition.
