Or you haven't been keeping up with college football the last three years.

Joey Bosa with very impressive 3-cone (6.89) and short shuttle (4.21) times. For comparison sake, Khalil Mack was 7.08 and 4.18.



ill leave this here.

Mack was 20lbs lighter, btw

Yes these #s are similar but Bosa is only good at stopping the run. He's an average pass rusher who should be a middle to late 1st Rd pick. He's made the bulk of his plays against bad teams.


average pass rushers get doubled on every play?

PFF had him as the top guy against the pass and the run this past year.

I'm on record as saying I think his floor is Ryan Kerrigan which is a solid 10 year starter and his ceiling is Jared Allen. If you think he's closer to Allen he is worth a top 3 pick, if you think he is closer to his floor then he's likely a mid 1st rounder

The Joey Bosa hate is dishonest. They just need to admit they don't like him because they hate Urban or Ohio State.

The guy had a stellar college career and he performed great at the combine.

He may very well be a bust, but at this point all that justifies it is "gut feeling".

I think Bosa will be a great NFL player. Not many people reach Watt levels of success but he'll be better thant he Chris Long's of the NFL and so on.

I don't watch CFB like I used to. I'm usually working during the big games so I only watch with half an eye on the games

I've heard a lot of chatter on the Dallas radio stations and what not from insiders that Bosa maybe the pick for the Cowboys.

I'm not for it at all. I know Gregory is suspended for the first four games, but how often you do you get a No. 4 pick, especially Dallas? I think we have to take Wentz or Goff and let them sit behind Romo for however many years. Without there being a big time pass rushing DE that highly rated, I'm definitely skeptical of his skill set.

If we take Bosa I'll be HIGHLY disappointed.

Yea the NFL network guys this weekend said you either 1. draft a QB if you love someone or 2. draft Elliott if you think you can "win now." I think that is way too high for a RB, but I guess if you think you can plug him in for a chance to win a SB you do it? I don't support the all in for now mentality often

I'm not going to defend Bosa too much (he has poor discipline in gap integrity and his instincts are not top notch IMO) but I think no matter what he is a starter for a decade. If that is a bust then he potentially could be one, but I see more 3-5 time pro bowler and multiple 10 sack seasons than 0 10 sack seasons and out of the league in 5 years

most of his drill times were in the 90-95 percentile for DE's. Guy is elite moving in confined space.

Hiring Jonah Hill to run your scouting department is a total Cleveland move
