Josh Sweat is trash though.

I don’t like him either but that 40 will make some team take him think he will be Clowney..

That's not good bruh. 4-3 DE, while heavy, usually are athletic. If Chad would have ran a 4.5-4.6 then he would be considered a 1st rounder. That 4.9 solidifies his status as a 3rd-4th rounder.

You dont know how this works.

Doubt it. Dude has a bad knee.

Yeah. He's not.

Actually has pretty good tape. He's not a first rounder, but he's not trash.

 

[Jassid82]

A 6’6 280lb DLineman running a legit 4.9 isn’t bad at all. Now if he was 260 he would be in trouble. 3rd rounder at worst.

 

[CanesFan93]

You dont know how this works.

Show me a 6'4-6'5 projected 4-3 DE that weighs over 270, ran a 4.9, and was drafted in the first two rounds. Allen Bailey was 6-3 285 lbs and was taken in the 3rd after he ran a 4.7.

I mean I know he was hurt last year but the kid still
Doesn’t have a ton of production or wow plays like Clowney had. You would think nfl gm’s would see through the measurables. He’s a guy the late al Davis would take just because of the 40 time.

Chad Thomas

Chad probably cemented himself in the top 3 rounds. NFLNetwork guys compared him to Jared Odrick who went in the first.

Chad likely was a 4th-5th rounder at end of the season...i think hes climbing.

They just had Chad working the olb drill...He's 6'5 280...and looked smooth doing it. Dude about to be a steal...as he looks different than most guys there not named Chubb...and Sweat doesnt have the tape he likely has. I liked the Boston College kid more than Sweat all year.

 

[Bennubird]

Regarding Chad, there is a lot that teams can do with a man that size who can move like that. I agree ^, his stock is rising.

So a team is taking him in the first round?

 

[jkaz1]

Sweat weighs about 30 lbs less than Thomas.

4.95 on second run. Josh Sweat ran a 4.53...

 

[gogeta4]

Last Year's Guys-

Jonathan Allen Alabama 6'3 286 33 5/8" 9 3/8" 21 5 30" 108"

Taco Charlton Michigan 6'6 277 34 1/4" 9 3/4" 25 4.92 33" 116"

Derek Barnett Tennessee 6'3 259 32 1/8" 10" DNP 4.88 31" 117"

Solomon Thomas Stanford 6'3 273 33" 9 3/8" 30 4.69 35" 126"

 

[Pentagon Cane]

Cannot get over the fact that Ridley is 23 1/2 and is leaving as a true junior.

He's not a 1st round pick, but no, that's not a a bad time for him. He's a traditional 4-3 end who will not be looked at as the pass rushing specialist. A team taking him will have the speed/attack rusher at the other end position.

 

[Bccrhp]

OT, but Shaquem Griffin ran a 4.38 and benched 20 at 227 pounds. He's getting drafted.

 

[Canesfan1899]

Lorenzo carter running a 4.46
Shaquiem griffith running in the 4.3’s

The linebackers putting work.

 

[The Franchise]

Bradley Chubb with a 4.66. Solidifying a top 5 pick.

Someone on here was telling me Chubb sucks and that Patrick basically pieced that NCSU DL together with glue and toothpicks.

 

[Official Cane Gang]

Where’s RJ?

Wondering the same

 

[The Franchise]

Chad has never been a burner. That time is great for him at his size. I don’t know if he’ll ever be a sack machine, but he’s a great football player. And a great Cane.

Fck Josh Sweat.
