I'm not saying he doesn't have talent, but based on his overall performance since he arrived at LSU, I was thinking 3/4 round at best. He was unbelievable his freshman season, but last year there were several games he was a total non-factor and the times you did see him, he was of position or missing a tackle.

He also doesn't have a natural position and I'm still not convinced he can LB because he struggles reading what is happening in front of him and reacting in time. Clearly, in high school he was basically a go get the player with ball, but in college and the NFL that doesn't work.

It’s not always about production. Maason Smith didn’t do shite last year and still got taken early in the 2R

He’s a physical freak who has shown sparks of being elite against sec play as a freshman….

Why are you shocked? Teams took a gamble on Maason smith for being physically gifted with not so good film

He has unbelievable talent. It’s not always about production, but projection. Plus… you obviously aren’t giving NFL scouts much credit if you don’t think they can clearly see that he was mis-used and under coached last year.

Have you seen him play??

He is probably the most physically gifted guy on the field in every game he’s played.

Freshman season he was just playing off instinct, sophomore season he played 4 different positions and was trying to figure it out. I think we’ll see huge improvement in the middle this year

I'm really excited to see what Baker tries to do with Perk this year.

A season can make a world of difference. I'm choosing to lean on the optimistic side with how he's gonna be used and anticipating him being a serious problem for offenses.

He was good for at least one big play per game. It's obvious he is physically gifted, and has instincts. Just look at how he ran down Milroe last season (the penalty was complete bs). It doesn't take a draft guru to understand the guy is a stud. Unfortunately, he played on a bad defense.

I mean he is “generational” and needs big year for him. Don’t want to take two steps back.

Jabril Peppers was a first round pick without being a prototypical S or LB. Perkins is of the same mold…physical freak, playmaker, game changer. He’ll find his spot.
