How clear?Crystal.
First, is that he intends to build this team from the line of scrimmage, out.
And third, that he wants his guys to play with violence.
One the enemy kept violating.
To that, I present you with this potential solutions to all your problems.
(Note that this presumes Abdul Carter is going to be off the board by the fourth pick.
If he’s still available, I get my selection in so fast it’ll bend space-time.)
I’m going on a few assumptions here.
One is that Vrabel wants to employ a similar scheme to the one he excelled at in New England.
Which is one that relies on edge players with a certain size/speed profile.
The rule of 6-4, 4-6.
Meaning 6'4" or bigger, 4.60 or faster.
Scourton checks all those boxes.
OK, perhaps a 10th of a second slower than ideal.
No one’s arguing he’s a quick-twitch penetrator like Carter is.
So I won’t.
As far as versatility, he’s played in both 30- and 40-fronts.
Standing up and with his hand in the Field Turf.
And is a 3-down player.
He’s also got experience, with 37 career games.
But still won’t be able to legally buy a drink until August 25th.
NFL.com’s scouting profilemakes a couple of player comps for him.
One is Trey Hendrickson.
Hes a force player like George Karlaftis was coming out, but Scourton has a little more rush.
That’s the league’s official site doing that.
In fact,Mock Draft Database currently has Scourton as 39th on their Consensus Big Board.
Which is an average of all the major mocks.
But he’s within their grasp, with a move-up trade, if possible.
Assuming they can’t get Carter (I am) and add a piece for Drake Maye at No.
