Mesidor grades out as best defensive player…

[OrangeBowlMagic]

Mesidor, Kelly in Year 2, perhaps some Cyrus Moss, Harvey, sprinkle in a little Jayden Wayne and Rueben Bain for a few snaps a game.

Are we allowed to have nice things on the edge this year?

He is coming back this year?

 

[OrangeBowlMagic]

He is coming back this year?

For now, yes. And I'm not saying that cryptically, I believe the expectation is that he will be back.

This surprised me....

Is 87.3 higher than 87.1?

Wonder what Moss is at weight wise. He might be another year away.

For how bad our defense was we certainly had a players grade out very well

Kinchens, Taylor, mesidor

 

[Rellyrell]

Messidor, again, another transfer who comes in & established himself as one of the best immediately.

He was also our highest TP recruit, so there’s that, too.

 

[htownkidd]

Need about 5 more of him.

 

[Cribby]

Kam is going to be a good one. A true ball hawk

This aged well. Oops I’m not supposed to do that anymore.

Taylor gets a weird amount of hate on this board. If he was a high 4 star, the fan base would be super high on his production through 2 years, but as a 5*, him not being an all American makes him a bust

IIRC Mesidor was a late season transfer? After the spring?

His first year was just so **** weird too. Can’t say I blame him for seemingly being at odds with the staff that was here but it sure seemed like he wasn’t going to stay here

I think most people had kinda checked out on anything positive by the end of the season but he was playing pretty well. Very disruptive

Yep.

I think its more about game impact. If dude is one of the best why don't we see him impacting the games more consistently? He definitely had his moments, but he was also paired with Jackson and Mesidor. This line should have been one of the most dominant in the country. It wasn't. Maybe our rotation was to frequent. Not sure but Mesidor's motor was noticeable in almost every game. Everyone else had their moments. Some more than others. The dude coming in from Purdue had 50% more QB pressures than LT and didn't even make all conference. Something is not adding up. Looking for a leap this year for sure.

He wasn't elite, but I do think he was one of the best players on our sorry team. Also would say though DL wasn't dominant, it was the best position group on our team last year.

And that’s after being completely negated against FSU.

Yeah but isn't this implying he had an élite year?
