I'm legit curious what made Foskey the pick over White. White seems more like their athletic jumbo edge.


It was the inverse of their usual pick. White was raw at the position with spotty production. Foskey was an All-American with double the sacks his last two seasons as White had in his career. Foskey wasn't so many on people's radar here but I remember many didnt want White because of this.

Can’t stand all these “high potential” players we draft instead of going after proven college names.


I feel like Foskey was more of the proven college name type than “high potential” type lol. You must be referring to Turner and Davenport

Hopefully we start drafting these Polynesian guys regularly. They LOVE football and literally never bust out except for injury.


Can’t recall the name but didn’t we draft one of these guys back in 2014 or 2015? Definitely busted…

Edit: Yep, 2015 class pick #44 Hau’oli Kikaha. Definitely remember him being such a letdown. Maybe it was just the injuries like you said but a pretty short and underwhelming career
