Arden Key-DE/OLB-LSU

That's why you hire a third-party security. Ultimately the team, and maybe partially the player, pay for their service.

The Cowboys hired a 24/7 life coach/chaperone/babysitter for Dez.


For what these guys are getting paid its well worth while to get some insurance.

Half of the sacks in that video are against RBs and TEs lol.

Yup, honestly I haven't watched much of him at all...just assumed he wasn't gonna be on their board

Does he expect to play in the NFL at 238 pounds? Why were this numbers at the combine and LSU pro day so bad? He should be putting up electric numbers at that weight. There are so many questions with this guy, on and off-field. No bueno.

Everyone covering his pro day said he did very well
If he's there in the 5th I'd take a chance.

I hope they pass on him he kinda reminds me of Barkevious Mingo. I wouldn't spend the 9th pick on him but if he fell to the 2nd I'd think about it.

Oh he's not getting drafted in the 1st let alone the 9th overall pick

Good I don't think he's worthy.
Great pass rushers have historically been head cases...
Arden key has some really nice moments on tape but he's the perfect example of a guy who takes plays off. One play looks like a top 15 first rounder . Then looks like a practice squad player on the next play lol. Everyone takes plays off, but not to the extent that he does

He's very inconsistent.

This.
Haven't watched him to talk work ethic or technique, but damn, regardless of any discipline or actual in-game stuff the dude is lanky as all hell. Even aldon was shorter and had more weight to him. Can't imagine him not getting knocked backward at 6'6 in the 230' range
Voch said it best dude has it all "sometimes" Key takes plays off and his football character is suspect

Dange, he's impressive. Moves like Fred Dean in my eyes.
I'll take him day 3, and I think he has a realistic possibility of falling down that far.

Same here. Too many red flags. He is worth it in the 5th IMO. The defense needs a leader (Roquan would be nice) that can get on him when he phones it in.
If they're sold on this guy they can take Fitzpatrick then take him in the 2nd, if they really like him you can't risk him being there in the 3rd. Teams have shown they will take risks on a premier position like pass rusher, you take him if you believe he has his head straight and can be a focal point on the d for the duration of his prime.
