This...that's a weird comp and imo not accurate at all.

My darkhorse is Farrell on a trade down with JAX at #7.

I like Ferrell a lot. Phenomenal snap anticipation/reaction. Extends arms well to set the edge, and is a heady player. Not seeing an uber-athlete, but a technician with some altheticism.

No obvious comparison comes to mind. Maybe Frank Clark?

Farrell has a great first step, solid moves and counter moves, above average hands, good size, But sub average bend.

Allen has phenomenal speed and bend, but questionable moves and hand usage.

I lean towards teaching a player technique over trying to change flexibility and balance.

Yeah, I agree - you can't teach natural bend and flexibility.

why would jax move up to #2? I could understand if there was a franchise QB on the board.

Dwayne Haskins and Drew Lock are upgrades over Bortles. KM is good too but he'll probably get hurt in practice

I hope they make deals with us in draft + possibly CJ Beathard and other players for Ramsey).

I prefer Ferrel now to Burns if we don't get Bosa or Williams, better player for a 4-3 and every down guy.

I've warmed up to Farrell if we were to trade down a bit more but he still scares me. If I could combine Ferrell with the technique and bend from Burns that would be the perfect prospect.
