Well for one, he didn't deserve the Thorpe this year, he deserved it last year.


But he didn't lose it this year. Here's some info for you....

quote:

Grant Delpit, LSU Draft Board Rank: 15th Delpit has coverage ability you just can’t teach. He’s had at least six combined picks and pass breakups in every single year of his career at LSU. Some players on this list have yet to do that for a single season. Even in a “down” year in 2019, Delpit still only allowed 13-21 receiving for 196 yards and one score. At 6-3, 203 pounds, Delpit has great size for a modern safety and can execute pretty much any role asked of him.

He looked great the last four games of the season, that’s all that mattered to me.

He was obviously injured

This is a retarded question, but has there ever been a safety that's successfully switched to LB in the NFL


Brian Urlacher is the only one that comes to mind, but it's the best possible example.


Thomas Davis was a safety for Georgia and became an all pro LB for Carolina.

Urlacher was a do it all guy in college. He returned punts as well as playing DB/LB. He was a freak for sure.

It happens all the time
Some team will get a steal later in draft

Look chase is probably not gonna put up the same stats this year and certain analysts who have never played a down will nitpick everything about him

Why do they wait so long to have the draft?
Draft should be late feb or early March

It looked like he didn’t know how to tackle for most of the season. Sure, he was injured, and got better at the end, but it is what it is.
