But this is no ordinary situation.
Mike Vrabel is the coach.
Ohio State is the school.
And Josh Simmons is the left tackle prospect.
Certainly among offensive tackles.
So we’ve got a story on our hands.
Yet, there are concerns about Simmons that go beyond his injury, at least for some.
In the article, McGinn included quotes from an unnamed scout.
Quotes that are damning about Simmons and his temperament.
Specifically, the scout told McGinn, Simmons issues are more football character.
He has a complete [expletive] sense of urgency, like a total finesse player.
Mental is an issue.
Lacks power, struggles to anchor.
Plays like a guy that was at a JUCO and just came here.
NFL.com: Has Simmons going to the Patriots with their 2nd, No.
4, they have to take them.
Carter is an obvious game-changing talent.
Hunter is an absolute unicorn.
Which makes all this doubt and confusion around Simmons a good thing.
And Vrabel’s Ohio State insider status so valuable.
I want this team to be shopping for left tackles early on in Day 2.
Or, moving up and getting the guy they value in Round 1.
So the more scouts trash a potential stud like this guy, the better.
