Day 3 2021 NFL Draft Thread

[Guest]

Niemann. Great little sleeper pick. I like it...a lot.

More bloodlines:

Niemann has football in his blood. Not only has his older brother gone on to win a Super Bowl with the Kansas City Chiefs, but their father is an assistant coach at Rutgers. Unsurprisingly, Niemann impressed on the football field as a junior at Sycamore High School. Playing both ways as a linebacker and tight end, he had 81 tackles and 3 tackles for loss while snagging 9 receptions for 276 yards and 3 touchdowns.

TT is bringing all those day 3 2nd contract percentages down.

Canceled out by all the second contracts he gives to UDFA?

Neimann’s brother is a Chief

Needs more muscle

[Charge!]

We seem to be adding a starter or young blood to many positions.

One of the more underrated players in the 2021 NFL Draft is Nick Niemann of Iowa. Last season, Niemann led the Iowa Hawkeyes in tackles with 77 and also had 2.5 tackles for loss. He also put up strong testing numbers at Iowa's Pro Day, running the 40-yard dash in 4.45 seconds and posting a 6.67 three-cone drill time.

This year almost all are high character guys.... all high effort players..... seem to match up with our new HC and staff.....

LB who can run
but is limited in pass coverage

Why did this guy drop? He converges really quickly on ball carriers/receivers and he has good length.

His length, 3-cone and 40 were superb....no reason why he couldn't improve.

I suspect he wasn't asked to follow people, just sit back in zone and react.
