Jesus for one quick second I saw “release” not “relentless “ and was like wtf? 🤪

Re: All about Da'Ron Payne
 

It wasn't the "sexy" pick at 13 but it's a good choice and as I said, given BAs draft history I will agree with his moves.

Re: All about Da'Ron Payne
 

Solid pick, no complaints. We've lacked a stud DT since Cornie Griffin, hope this helps. At the least he should really help the run defense, and best case scenario he turns into a pass-rushing nightmare too.

Hurst was the better choice IMO but his heart issue has scared teams, Payne is a good DT tho and with Allen again, should be a huge lift to our Run D.. Allen has to stay healthy

Re: All about Da'Ron Payne
 

This was an awesome pick.

D-Ron has more versatility than Vea and can play inside and out along the D-line. He is a monster vs the run and has big play ability.

The college playoff this past year he dominated first against top notch Oline Georgia and extremely strong Oline at Clemson.

The guy is a weight room junkie and is only 20. His frame can still fill out.

D-Ron and Allen along side one another is gonna be something else. This is what gets me going.

Preston Smith and Ryan Kerrigan - no excuses not to flirt/acheive with double digits sacks from the outside.

Re: All about Da'Ron Payne
 

No complaints. Great pick. Redskins have adults in the draft room, at least for last night.

I just feel w/ Payne and Allen, we need to go to the base 4-3.

This is the aspect I'm most excited about, RK and PS should love a beefed up line.

Re: All about Da'Ron Payne
 

If we can keep a rotation on the front of Allen Taylor Ionnaidis and Payne with McGee substituting then our DL should be able to handle our division opponemts (and any other teams) rushing attacks.

Re: All about Da'Ron Payne
 

Cooley said he would have taken Edmunds or James but he's also one of the main guys dogging our DL all the time

we gonna find out about preston smith...no more "almost" made the play

Re: All about Da'Ron Payne
 

As I dig into more and more about Da'Ron Payne I'm realizing something very positive: he had two excellent games against Clemson and Georgia this year, two of the very best teams in college football. Happy to know that he lived up to his billing against the toughest competition.

Also most Bama Defensive players usually pan out in the NFL.. Saban does a great job getting that side of the ball pro ready. Again it wasn't the flashy James or Edmunds but it's a safe pick and u know from day 1 he will do his job.

Yep, he has a good motor but he never gets fully to the QB..

Re: All about Da'Ron Payne
 

Allen, Anderson and Payne have chemistry having played together,
He will just slide right in. Tomsula will fix whatever weaknesses he has, he could be better than Allen from what i’ve Read.
