he is not Donald. Aaron had 27.5 sacks 65TFL in 3 yrs while Graham had 9 sacks and 18TFL. Also Mason had 5 star prospects surrounding him while he was there.
big fan of Mason in this draft, folks gotta calm down with the Donald stuff.
For real. People need to stop bringing up Aaron Donald period in draft comps. Donald was an alien, and we'll likely never see another player like him. After he retired, he said he played around 250 to 260 pounds. Dude was fire hydrant made up of only fast-twitch muscle. Let's never comp anyone to him again please.
I like Mason Graham, so please do not try to twist what I'm saying as if I don't want him to be a Niner because I do. But let's keep it real--dude isn't built anything like Donald. He's kind of got that soggy, cornfed build.
Both of you calm down lol. Literally only mentioned him because he was the most dominant DT in the game, potentially of all time and was well under 300 lbs.
In other words, someone being less than 300 lbs isn't a reason to take them off the draft board.
The lack of length will absolutely be an issue for some teams, but IMO, lacking length is only an issue if a player sucks with his hands ands feet. Graham is very, very good with his hands and feet.
