This is why I think there's a legitimate chance he'll be there at 11. The league is going to overthink this. Trust the tape and turn in the pick, Lynch. It'll be the 2nd easiest 1st round draft selection he's ever made after Bosa.

He is working on hand technique and agility, it's literally in a gym with boxing pads you expect him to bulldoze the trainer?

Are you suffering from CTE? Not sure how anyone read my post and came away that I was criticizing Mason Graham.

Sure he's not complaining about that s**t field 😝

Could be...it does look like sh*t.

But when you see fans posting stuff like that it's a red flag for sure. All I know is if he's our pick he better stay the F locked in. Then again if he didn't have red flags he may not even land to us at 11.

Gun to my head if we're drafting DT at 11 I think I'd rather go with Harmon. He may not be as impactful but he feels safer to me.

Without the concerns Nolen would be the first DT taken. Nolen is a homerun if we pick him, I think we have the right kind of locker room to help him out. Similar to what Carter got in Philly. This is also the most important draft in Lynch and co's tenure and for that reason I think the issues will be to much for them to pick him so they'll end up reaching for someone or trading back.

It IS an important draft for Lynch and for that reason very doubtful he reaches. Not sure what the so called medical concerns are with Harmon, but if he checks out a trade down for him would be ideal. Nolen would be an impactful player at the position of greatest need from day 1. Even with what's been said about his character, I don't think anything would surface year 1 if ever.

It could also all be BS, I find it funny that medical concerns for Harmon come out the week of the draft. I trust that Lynch and his staff have done their homework and this will be a successful draft filling needs and adding depth.

Not specifically saying that to you just in general I'm sure 90% of 9er fans would be ecstatic or comfortable with Graham at 11. Laughing at him and saying he's going to drop when he's obviously working on hand work with boxing pads seems ignorant. I believe it was Justin Smith that trained in boxing to help his hand work.

Why are we talking about hand drills? This is basic DL s**t that everyone that's played in the trenches has done. Nobody is questioning the function or purpose of that. Since07 somehow derailed the conversation by thinking that I was criticizing Mason Graham when it was obvious to anyone that isn't fried(ie Phoenix) that I was in fact defending Mason Graham.

Here's 8 plays of Walter Nolen vs. Georgia, who should have their entire IOL drafted within the first 100 picks, playing on the other side of the line of scrimmage, winning at the snap, and working down the LOS to finish plays.

fwiw PFF gave Nolen an 80.8 grade in this game. https://t.co/hC3112eSyf pic.twitter.com/bWf4rbcb4l
