Higher probability he wouldn't be available at 30.

that's alot of assumptions. alot of mocks had williams and bush gone by 12 anyway...I don't think gute panicked.
I don't think he'll be a bust like Harrell or Worthy. He plays the run, can set the edge, has a high motor and will chase plays. That in itself will get you drafted in the 4th round and sets you up for a 10 year career. But I give him about a 10% chance he lives up to the #12 pick in the draft. I just don't remember that many players who get to the NFL and THEN develop pass rushing moves. That's why I liked Brian Burns so much and did not like Gary. I actually think Burns had a higher bust potential than Gary because if Burns can't rush the passer, he couldn't do anything else. Worst case Gary can still play first and second down. Not what you want from your #12 pick but better than a bust.
Packer fans during draft - WFT. What a horrible pick. Shoulda got some third string LB from Wisconsin. Hand me another Grain Belt.
At Training Camp - We LOvE you Rashan! Will you ride my kid’s bike?
Oy!

You mean like Clelin Ferrell was supposed to be there at #15 for Carolina?
These teams know where players are slotted.
The last time I heard this much whining from the NFL draft was 1995. Look it up.

Yup.
Does anyone think that the fact the majority of the top 10 were already wearing colors/patterns that reflected the teams that drafted them was a co-inky-dink?!?!?!
After that, I figure there's some 'play' but yeah, the teams know where who's going to go, even with 'shocking/stupid' picks.
I still enjoy it!

Upside was probably the biggest decider between the two. Burns is a lot closer to his ceiling than Gary is, Gary is a lump of clay at this point. A lot more you can do with the latter.

They drafted another Darius Holland?
I'm warming up to Gary. Everything you read about him says athletic freak. I'd like to see more production in college but he may translate big time to the NFL. GB is putting a ton of stock into the defense through FA and R1 of the draft.
Gute must be okay with the OL after the FA signing and Madison's return.
If Gary can sack or pressure Cousins, Trubiscuit and the Detroit guy,he'll be worth the #12 pick.
Does anyone know when his shoulder surgery is? I'm guessing Week 4.
sheeze.......

Ezekiel Ansah is the best example of this.
Ansah is a good call. I was thinking Jason Pierre-Paul too. So maybe Gary does have a chance.

Just spent the last 3 hours watching the Bust on the wide screen. Is the draft through first rd yet?
