LINK 45 tackles, 5 TFLs as a freshman.
Would be a massive get. Visiting USC this weekend. We could use another LB.

We need a TE and another Offensive Lineman more.

Campbell, wire, dumervil, Frazier, Bradford, kardell, dellinger, shorts, Martinez, hill, jones, west. We need a 13th or 14th olineman?

Te is a no brainer. Then best availible at cb, lb staff thinks we need most. We are very thin at lb

We have at least 5-6 middle LB's with more on the way. TE and OL are the ones we can use the most.

But are there players like Jayden Daniels that you just can't say no to?

None of our LBs are better than Gentry right now.

We need a Center worse than anything.

Depth of bodies at inside LBer isn't an issue as of now. I think they are at 9 scholarships there.

Other than Baskerville (we know he can play) I question the talent more than the depth. Jones remains an unknown inside to me.

If Gentry is a sure fire starter he is worth a look.

He is a sure fire starter hed be the best LB on our team depending on how quickly Perkins gets acclimated you could have 2 all American caliber LBs

Huh? I’m taking Mike Jones over Gentry and probably GPIII as well.

Not saying I wouldn’t take him but to act like he would be our best LB is naive.

How is it naive? Gentry was a freshman all American and has elite measurables and physical tools and was actually productive. Penn barley saw the field and Jones is a transfer in his 4th year who didn’t play much until late in the year last year.

You can live without a TE. You can't live without LBs.

I am not a guru but initial impression is he would not be a LB here more of a hybrid DE and way under weight at either DE or LB he is the same weight I would expect of a WR at 6’6”.

Is Gentry not more of an edge rushing lb at 6-5 215?


We probably need to define which types of lb we need to fill.


Field?
Middle?
Buck?


Gentry fills the buck position better.

We have ojulari/zCarter/des little there now.

Jones was a freshman All American at Clemson. He didn’t play much until the end of last year because our coaching staff was fricking retarded.

Also what kind of competition was Gentry going up against at ASU? It probably wasn’t that good because the PAC 12 sucked balls.

Once again I’m not saying I wouldn’t take a chance on him but to act like he would be our best LB is just dumb.
