Not on any guru’s list of best remaining players. He may have gone undrafted. This ones a head scratcher for sure.

Apke seems like a high upside guy....his physical abilities seem off the charts

I know nothing of Apke, but he certainly squares up when he tackles and I like that.

Ok well that makes me feel better knowing that someone other than the redskins thought he was good. I’ve obviously never heard of him before and Didn’t see him on the nfl list or sb nation list linked in this thread at all.

Re: Day 3 thread rounds 4-7

As per NFL.com:
Apke's production in key indicators for the position, like ball production and tackle consistency, are lacking. With just one year as a full-time starter, there simply isn't enough impressive tape to get excited about. He has decent size and could put together a solid workout, but may not offer enough range in coverage or thump as a tackler to ever be a full-time contributor. Apke may need to find his niche on special teams to earn any early playing time."

So we got a work out guy with limited skills. A special teams guy.

He was on Gil Brandt's top 150. You have 30+ picks before our next one, so if they love this guy then take him.

"Reach" is a term often used when a knowledge gap exists about a prospect.

How much do you know about Apke? To consider him a reach?

They call him a better athlete than football player right now but with all the tools to develop into a starter. Good man to man guy.

Apke’s workout was really good as far as I’ve heard and seen. That has to be why he went as high as he did. We just saw a lot of potential! I like it! 4.34 40 yard time!

Re: Day 3 thread rounds 4-7

He's fast enough to play FS but can he play FS? A lot of his highlights are down around LOS. Need someone who can back up Montae at FS.
