Say niners take Landry and If they live up to their hype and draft status this D-Line would be young, athletic, and a huge headache for opposing QBs, literally 🤕

Garrett is a generational athlete.The two are nothing alike.

I think Landry will grade out as a good athlete. His arms look a little short. He'll probably lose points there.

Landry compares more favorably to Derek Barnett. They both win in similar ways, but Landry appears to be the better athlete with more advanced hand technique and inside game.

Would absolutely love to get him on this defense, we need a pass rusher like this in the worst way possible!

I'm pretty exited at who we may be drafting next season(sad that we can discuss this so early but we all knew this would be a rebuild year)

Best-case scenario: Landry is Terrell Suggs to Garrett's Julius Peppers.

Landry will be great, but Garrett is the Lebron James of DEs in terms of talent (not to quite to that extent).

So is Garrett going to have Sam Bowie/Greg Oden type injury history?

I heard high-ankle sprain; totally not a big deal if you rest it enough. Didn't Oden have microfracture surgery?

One of Odens legs were literally shorter than the other. Garretts injury is nothing imo. Just don't force him.

But s**t I would take a suggs no problem. when it comes to all time greats, suggs is underrated.

Jesus.

Landry could end up being the most impactful player in the draft. The guy is disruptive on every play.

Sucks that BC has him on a pitch count.

Others see a better Derek Barnett as well:

Harold Landry reminds me ALOT of Barnett. Can bend corner/flip hips but needs to use hands more - patient OTs can throw a paw & toss upfield
