Be grateful you’re not a N.Y. Giants fan. Imagine drafting a player on Saturday and by Sunday he’s been involved in a deadly shooting. Talk about STOOPID! :

What do you mean? As far as we know he was a shooting victim.

What the hell is going on around here...with the WR names? Kabion?
We already have EQ's and Geronimo's and Marquez'es.
Can't we just go back to the olden days when men were men and we had some Max's and Boyd...
And Carroll ...uhm wait...never mind.
Does the 6'3" include the hair? If so it might be a Trump 6'3".

May be. His height is listed as 6'1.5 at JSO. It also says they are trying him at CB, not WR.
Matt Eaton, Iowa State, is the UDFA WR. 6' 4", 209 lbs.
List so far:
Nate Brooks, CB, North Texas: 6-0, 4.66, 40 ½, 11. Had 67 tackles and a team-leading six interceptions with 10 break-ups as a senior. In four years, he had 193 tackles, 10 tackles for loss, 10 interceptions, 29 pass break-ups and three forced fumbles.
» Randy Ramsey, DL, Arkansas: 6-3, 238, 4.78, 30, 24. Played in 39 games with 22 starts. He totaled eight sacks in four seasons. Will be used as an outside linebacker in the pros.
» Greg Roberts, DE, Baylor: 6-5, 258, 4.72, 34 1/2 , 23. Played in 42 games with 26 starts in three seasons. Had 81 tackles, 15½ for loss, and three sacks, all during his senior season. He played defensive end but could wind up being an outside linebacker in the NFL.
» Javien Hamilton, DB, Mississippi: 5-10, 184, 4.5, 39, 13. Joined Ole Miss after two years in junior college and made four starts as a junior and four as a senior. Had 38 tackles and three interceptions.
» Yousauh, Nijman, OT, Virginia Tech: 6-6 ½, 314, 4.89, 30 ½, 27. Started out as a defensive end, then moved to tackle. Became the starting left tackle his sophomore season. Missed five games in ’17 due to a leg injury and two games in ’18 due to undisclosed injuries.
» K.B. Ento, WR, Colorado: 6-1 ½, 187, 4.52, 41 ½, 11. Played two seasons at East Central (Mississippi) Community College where he caught 59 passes for 885 yards (15.0 average) and 10 touchdowns. Caught eight passes for 174 yards and two touchdowns as a junior, redshirted the next season so he could build up his body and caught 12 passes for 161 yards as a senior. Will attempt to make team as a cornerback.
» Curtis Bolton, ILB, Oklahoma: 6-0, 228, 4.58, 38, 17. He played mostly as a reserve early on, playing in just three games as a sophomore and eight as a junior due to an ankle injury. But he became a starter last year and had 142 tackles, including 12 for loss and 4½ sacks.
» Matt Eaton, WR, Iowa State: 6-4, 209, 4.64 34, 10. Started out at Temple, but after two years transferred to a JC and then played two seasons for the Cyclones. He caught 48 passes for 512 yards and six touchdowns.
» Davis Koppenhaver, TE, Duke: 6-3 ½, 245, 4.89, 32, 14. Played 41 games but only started one. Caught 49 passes for 431 yards (8.80) and 12 touchdowns, the latter a career record by a tight end at Duke.
» Larry Williams, OL, Oklahoma State: 6-4, 330. Injuries marred his college career.
I mentioned on Sunday that I view VT OT Yosuah Nijman as Green Bay's 9th draft pick. I felt he was a mid-round talent. pic.twitter.com/S0S3y7l28T

Nijman is 6'7" and 320 ish. He looks very good in these clips ...goes against Clellin Ferrell, Brian Burns, Zach Allen, etc...
Greg Roberts is in the fold for the #Packers but they really made an effort to lock in the 6-5, 258-pound defensive end. He also got $7K to sign, but the team guaranteed $65K of his 2019 base salary.

Jim "Ouch" Owczarski. Wonder if he played any ball cuz that'd be an awesome name.
"Yousauh, Nijman, OT, Virginia Tech: 6-6 ½, 314, 4.89, 30 ½, 27"
These are the only stats that impress me from that group. That is a fast big man.
And he moves really well at that size. Stenovich needs to get to work.

How badly must a guy with those measurables play to not get drafted?
from 24/7 Sports-
“One look at Nijman and it is easy to fall in love with the NFL frame and length. When he's on the move, he's fluid and can be effective on the second level.,” NFL Analyst Lance Zierlein said before the 2019 NFL Scouting Combine. “Upon further inspection, his body control is below average and his pass sets have major holes that could be challenging to correct. He's a developmental right tackle in need of extensive coaching for improved pass sets and greater consistency of aim with his run-blocking landmarks. If the coaching lands, he could become a Day 3 value draft pick if medicals check out.”
As noted above in the video link I posted, he looked pretty darn good against the Clemson trio, Brian Burns, and Zach Allen. Definitely worth a tryout.

Slightly worse than Rashan Gary. Slightly.
But he cares.
Nijman was recruited to VaTech as a defensive lineman. If he's as far from a finished product on offense as they say, maybe a shot at D Line instead. You can't run 4.89 without a great get off and he's plenty strong.
One thing's for sure: if Nijman gets his hands on the guy opposite him, that guy can't do jack. Amazing strength in his hands and he uses them well to control the defender. Now to get his footwork to match his handiwork...

Patterned his game after Jason Spriggs.

grigs, watched him play Clemson, and the dude handled Clelin Ferrell. Has experience in a powerful conference at VT. He is effective. Played well.
I think what kept teams away is he fractured both tibias right and left when he grew too fast and couldn't support the weight. That was when he was a freshman, and they inserted titanium rods that remain today. His play is fine. His speed is fine. Honestly, I think teams dinged him on that, and with how to say his name.... He's a great blocker and pass protector. Total steal.
Check his highlights.

Played 12 games as a reserve OT in 2015, 14 games at LT 2016, 8 at LT 2017 and 11 at RT in 2018. It was just spring practices in 2014 that he was DE but moved straight to OT. He's not unfinished, but needs some coaching to optimize feet and hand placement. The guy can play.
Funny that he was considered one of the most agile OL at the combine, and that his footwork and lateral movement stood out, as well as his 40. Figure, he came in 2nd at the NFL Combine amongst all OL behind OC Garrett Bradbury of Clemson who was taken 18th overall. We stole him.
In 2018 he had 639 pass sets, allowing just 12 pressures and 1 sack. Previous 3 years he had 1844 pass blocking snaps with similar results. Nijman is a perfect developmental RT for us, with plenty of LT experience as well.

Hopefully, BETTER!!!!
Hokies offense was a shambles. This guy just totally fell under the radar. MCL injury to his right leg late 2018, but no surgery needed. Altogether, it might have kept other teams away. Plus, they ran with their linemen in 2 point stances. Nijman told reporters he's looking forward to working out of a 3 point stance to maximize his power in the run game.
Speaking of Bulaga, wouldn't be surprised to see Yosh this season, knowing Bulaga...
