Would you not draft Osa Odighizuwa

CMicks3110 : 4/12/2021 7:05 pm
because of how badly his brother performed here? I have not heard anyone mention him as a possibility in the 4th or 5th round and can't help but think it would be someone's ass (in scouting) if we blew two draft picks on these brothers.
Only weighs 280 lbs

too small for DT. But he's brother's play should be irrelevant.
Yes, I Would Not Draft Him

the Giants already have their designated player with an unpronouceable last name in Ifeadi Odenigbo.

:-)

Seriously, if he's BPA when picked, his brother's issues shouldn't be a big factor.

If we aren't going to draft someone because of how their sibling fared here...well, we got a new box of issues to deal with. How his brother did here should be 100% insignificant in terms of drafting him or not.
He would have to fit the system

He is light but extremely strong with 34 " arms. If Graham wants a quick inside guy, if they go to a 4 man front in some games and they want Quick 3 technique he fits. Don't know if he is versatile enough.
Being such a bad year for DTs

I think he gets drafted higher than he should. I don't see him being picked by the GMen unless he presented great value.
The reason his brother’s failure might matter...

... is that they both went through the same horrific trauma growing up. Osa was just a baby at the time of the shooting, but the whole family bore the stigma, no matter where they moved to.
Strange

To say anybody at 280 is small, but...

Aaron Donald came out at 280.

Some people were against drafting him, too, for this weight.
I wouldn't draft him because Sy thinks he's trash

not because his brother sucked

I figured someone would say that and of course the answer is he is not AD. But yes, there is precedent, could be a 5 Technique

Except Donald was about 100000x more productive. And he still went top 15. Why to people act like he was picked in the 3rd round. Questioning how great a player may be happens every year. And for every Drew Brees and Donald there are a ton of guys who don't successfully Pan out.

How many 280'punr DTs are there in the NFL.
Sy’56 has a mid 3rd day grade on him, so Round 5 or 6 sounds about

Right. Undersized but maybe a good backup.
i don't even remember
