Put me down for Trey Smith next
Tennessee offensive guard Trey Smith says he will ‘never forget’ as he goes unsigned into the third day of the 2021 NFL Draft
Another Guard is a must. Then RB and a kicker in round 5 or 6...

I'm a little ahead of the TV but Jacksonville traded up to get ahead of us.

We'll see what they are getting.

False alarm.

Jags traded up in front of us to take a Defensive End. Maybe they thought we were going to take our third Defensive End in a row.

I won't spoil the rest for those of you keeping up on TV.

Tyler Shelvin - DT out of LSU

Looks like PFF sees this as a bit of a reach at this point. I know Joe likes him.
STRENGTHS: Humongous human with broad shoulders, wide hips and thick from head to toe…rarely gives ground…tremendous anchor strength, playing low and
balanced to leverage single and double blocks…powerful hands to snatch, swat or toss…quick with his discard to make stops in the hole…flashes lateral quickness to
make plays down the line of scrimmage…carries his weight much better than expected…creates push when he stays underneath blocks and pumps his legs…plays
with immediate stopping force as a tackler to put ball carriers on their backs at contact…when he plays hard, he makes plays through the echo of the whistle…had a
dominant sophomore season in 2019, helping LSU win the national title.

WEAKNESSES: Has battled constant weight issues (close to 390 pounds at one point) and the lack of discipline with his conditioning remains an issue…non-factor as a
pass rusher…doesn’t have the upfield burst to consistently win gaps…rushes with power/effort more than instincts or technique…his rushes often stall out due to tall
pads…not a rangy player who will frequently make plays outside his square…struggles to collect himself in motion to make stops in the backfield…inconsistent snap
anticipation…his competitive switch needs to stay flipped on…often found himself in academic hot water, both in high school and in college…was suspended for
several weeks during the 2018 season due to laziness and weight issues (NFL scout: “He could be Vince Wilfork if he was motivated to be”)…basically has only one
season of film at the college level.

SUMMARY: A one-year starter at LSU, Shelvin was the nose tackle in former defensive coordinator Dave Aranda’s 3-4 base scheme, playing head up over the center.
He was a nonfactor in three of his four seasons in college due to academics (2017), weight/discipline issues (2018) and his opt-out decision (2020), but his 2019
season gave scouts a glimpse of his high-impact potential anchoring the defensive line. Shelvin puts down roots and won’t be displaced at the point of attack, using
his heavy hands to control single and double blocks. While he is balanced and quicker than most his size, he offers little to no pass rush value. Overall, Shelvin
requires constant maintenance and monitoring due to concerns with his conditioning and football character, but he is an immovable object with the natural
power to anchor an NFL defense line. He projects as a traditional two-down nose if he stays disciplined.
GRADE: 5th-6th Round

Last night Ja'Marr Chase tweeted "Where big T at man"

Right after the pick Ja'Marr hit Twitter with some eyeball emojis.

I think he might like this pick.

The Bayou Bengals keep coming up North.
