McKinney draft

[amcdan2000]

in all the mock drafts I've noticed McKinney fell out of first round. what happened in his evaluations?

 

[msstate7]

They realized he's a part of our men's athletic program so his stock fell along with the whole program*

Many expected him to be a freak at the combine but he didn't do anything that stood out. Looks like Tarzan, plays like Jane, disappears a lot on film, not a lot of production, disappears in big games (OM), struggles in pass coverage. IMO his best chance at a long career is as a 34 edge rusher. Maybe whoever drafts him will leave him on the field and not sub him out every other series.

that's odd. i don't know who i heard interviewed yesterday on a national broadcast, but BM was the first name mentioned for sneaking into the first round because he can play 3 downs.

"Disappears on film".

I think you're going to see Preston Smith drafted before McKinney.

And he can thank DM for that

Hey Smith, do you want to play on Sunday?

Yes, Coach I do...

Then get up off of your ***! ( or you'll be watching on TV).

McKinney isn't elite compared to other lbs at the combine but has plenty of room to improve. If he goes in the first round, somebody will have to see him as a niche in their scheme.

Of all the talk about McKinney playing with his hand in the dirt, that lack of diversity actually may have cost him the first round since his measurables were on par with others.

You've seen the tapes?**

The last mock draft I saw, I believe it was cbssports.com, actually had Preston going at the end of the first round to maybe Dallas with McKinney listed as an early to mid 2nd rounder.

I don't get why Mckinney is still being projected as an ILB. If you are going to play inside LB in the pros you have to be able to stuff people in the hole. That's not his strength. He needs to be an OLB in a 3-4.
