He’s torn each ACL. Was a redshirt soph. I’ve always liked his talent, as he succeeded Devin Bush inside at Michigan and (prior to the knee injury) had sideline to sideline speed. More run stopper than cover ‘backer. Like most on Michigan’s defense last year, he underachieved. I’m guessing the total overhaul of the defensive coaching staff may have also played a factor in the decision to come out early. Feels like a PUP at the beginning of the year, then try and sneak him onto the practice squad as part of a redshirt year to see if he develops.It appears McGrone is recovering from an ACL and previously had an ACL tear in the other knee in 2017. That’s probably how a guy with his talent ends up at the back end of the 5th round.
Seems a little old but he's still rather handsome.Patriots draft.... Bledsoe?
The sumbitch likes to break up passes. I approve.Looks like slot corner/safety type guy. 5'11 / 200.
Every team could use a sommelierSeems a little old but he's still rather handsome.
I knew I saved that electric blue Bledsoe jersey for something.With the new number rules, they have to give this guy #11, obviously.
Sometimes guys will declare if they don't think they will get playing time the following season.McGrone is a 20 YO RS sophomore, why would he have entered the draft? I wonder if someone advised him he would go much higher.
I think we’re still ok: Michigan and Missouri both start “Mi” and are 8 letters long. Also, I think drafting a 2nd Bledsoe might dneak in under the Michael Carter rule of pairs.Do we have to take another Michigan guy now? Are we loading an ark?
Not dead at all. We have another pick shortly. We're at the point where everyone team's draft boards are completely different.I think my dreams of Cade Johnson might die on the vine.
What are your thought on Deonte Brown? Should they have drafted him instead of either of the two previous picks?Bledsoe is a solid box safety who will play teams. High intangibles pick too FWIW. Not much an athlete but it don’t matter.
Sounds like the new Brandon King.Bledsoe is a solid box safety who will play teams. High intangibles pick too FWIW. Not much an athlete but it don’t matter.
Well, his name is Stone.Did Stone Forsythe smoke an entire pot plantation?
I doubt his middle name is TecumsehBIG BILL SHERMAN!
Is it horrible that I laughed?Play him against the Falcons.
I liked watching Book; what are his negatives that cause him to go way later than a guy like Mac Jones?
You're not alone.Is it horrible that I laughed?
Those scars are never going away.You're not alone.
I think that they've been through too much already though. Still have scars from 28-3.
Can only hope he has a big game against the Falcons and then gets the nickname Cump.William Sherman OT from Colorado
looks like practice squad guy
I’m a little disappointed
Perfect. Draft a T who will probably play G in the NFL, which is exactly what the Pats need - interior linemen. Like this selection in the 6th round.Tony Pauline’s Will Sherman Scouting Report
Positives: Three-year starter who lined up at both left and right tackle. Athletic, agile college tackle who projects as a zone-blocking guard in the NFL. Sets with a wide base, bends his knees, and blocks with leverage. Fires off the snap, quickly gets to the second level, and can hit a moving target. Displayed a nasty attitude last year and attacked assignments. Rarely off his feet, looks to hit multiple defenders, and works his hands throughout the action. Anchors in pass protection, easily adjusts to pick up the blitz, and covers a lot of area.
Negatives: Must make better use of blocking angles. Struggles handling bigger, stronger opponents. Must be more consistent placing his hands into opponents.
Analysis: Sherman caught my eye off his redshirt freshman campaign, and he really elevated his game in 2020. He lacks the size and skills in pass protection to stay at tackle, but I believe his movement skills and ability to adjust in motion make Sherman the perfect zone-blocking guard.
