Bryan Smith, Philadelphia Eagle

QB Eagles · April 27, 2008, 03:05:20 PM

Bryan Smith is a guy you want pass rushing, which really only makes sense for a 3-4 team. But if they are going to put him at DE instead of OLB, then the Eagles either have to roid him up incredibly or Reid is trying to dubiously reinvent the DE position with a little guy. It's a confusing pick and it will be interesting to see what Reid and JJ have up their sleeve with all these little speedy DE/LB guys.

I never even heard of the guy or saw him play a down, so I can't complain.

Everything I know about him is based off of the opinions of people from websites. Maybe the Eagles know something we don't or maybe he is another reach/bust like McCoy. We'll see.

I did want another DE though, so if he can get to the QB good.

If he stays at DE I don't really care what weight he plays at. He's what, 235 now? He sure as hell isn't going to get a lot of snaps so he should be whatever weight he's comfortable at, especially considering he'll be in just to rush the passer.

Someone tell me what Freeney and Mathis playing weights are.

Is he going to be a point of attack holding DE like Abiamiri? No. He's going to create pressure.

What is Justin Tuck's weight? He plays DT at times for chrissakes.

Justin Tuck is 274lbs...

hunt · April 27, 2008, 03:44:06 PM

freeney is listed at 268...mathis is 245.
smith is 228.

Justin Tuck was 240 when he came out of ND.

Smith is apparently at 246 now.

And Elvis Dumervil is another guy who didn't meet the oh so crucial measurables laid out there by the experts. But he went to Denver and posted 21 sacks the last two years, 8.5 his rookie year and 12.5 last year.

Thank ya very much.

Plus, Smith's never stomped on anyone or been stomped on, that we know of.

If you can somehow sit through that quality for 3 minutes you can actually see him play.
