You make some very good points on Shazier which many I agree with. I understand where you are coming from but your approach is only going to draw negative responses.

No matter what Shazier's measurables are he plays very "soft" especially against the run. He gets caught up in the wash far too much. That something that cannot be changed with coaching. Take Khalil Mack as an example. He uses great technique but he also has a natural ability to disengage blockers & get to ball carriers. Mack will be a great one whether he plays inside or outside, 3-4 or 4-3, it doesn't matter. I don't see that type of ability from Shazier.

It isn't just with Shazier but Bradley Roby as well. Bradley was terrible at times for Ohio St. this past season but because of great combine & workout numbers, he's being hyped as a can't miss product. He's not a great corner. He has poor fundementals as well as a poor attitude. He's had character issues on & off the field but there's some who are infatuated with drafting Roby but at the same time throw out character issues as reasons to not draft other players. I really don't get it.
