[Sherm Sticky]

Doubt he goes top 10. Top 20 more likely.

Big Mike going to participate in senior bowl?

Top 10 is tough...for a dude projected at RT! Haters gonna hate. He'll be successful.

Was worried he was kicked out of the program.

MIKE MCGLINCHEY Draft Profile – NFL.com

OVERVIEW
The first cousin of NFL quarterback Matt Ryan grew up living and breathing football in a family that loved the game. His hard work and passion paid off when garnering first-team all-state recognition in Pennsylvania, top 10 rankings in national offensive tackle recruiting circles, and a scholarship offer from Notre Dame. McGlinchey played in every game as a redshirt freshman, starting the team's Music City Bowl win over LSU at right tackle. He started all 13 games on the right side again as a sophomore before moving to left tackle for his junior season. McGlinchey started every game in 2016, displaying the quick feet, athleticism, and brute strength to be a very good NFL starter.

ANALYSIS

STRENGTHS Very fluid athlete with background as tight end. Natural movements and able to make cross-face and cut-off blocks. Uses tight, controlled settle steps to help promote balanced, centered contact at the point of attack. Good bender. Strikes and rolls his hips up under him. Advanced technician. Experienced and successful in gap and zone schemes and can play either tackle spot. Works hips double teams hip to hip and has well-timed climbs to linebackers. Quality down-blocker who gets movement and push with leg churn. Works to sustain. Pass sets with excellent posture. Weight is generally dispersed properly throughout his kick slides. Punch placement is adequate. Plays with adequate mirror. Instinctive and searches for trouble brewing with twists and blitzes. Named a team captain in consecutive years.

WEAKNESSES Below average core strength. Needs more mass on his frame. May not have leg drive to move anchored space eaters. Inconsistent at containing opponents as base blocker. Needs to sustain and finish at a better rate. Power ends can stack and discard him. Allows pad level to rise as move blocker. Pass slide is a little restricted in terms of gaining ground. Tends to deaden feet at punch allowing speed rushers access to his edge if his punch falls flat or misses entirely. Will lean into some blocks as mechanism to boost power. Will uncork his punch a shade too early at times for fear of losing the "hands first" battle. Can be bounced back into pocket by stiff stab moves.

DRAFT PROJECTION Round 1

NFL COMPARISON Jared Veldheer

BOTTOM LINE McGlinchey will need to add more strength and mass to his athletic frame in order to hold up against NFL power, but his technique and instincts are pro-ready. He could be a polarizing prospect based on inconsistencies from his tape, but he gets guys blocked at a much higher rate than he loses his rep. McGlinchey should become an early starter at either tackle position, but his ability to handle bull rushers and power at the point of attack will define the type of career he has.

That's not a bad comparison at all

Way to go Big Mike! First tackle off the board? Either way he'll be round 1.

he is always getting into cringeworthy arguments with randomers on twitter and it makes him look like a clown. Bryan Driskell levels of bait taking almost

 

[arrowryan]

I think Mike was joking in his tweet.

[Sherm Sticky]

Mike went number 9 overall to my San Francisco 49ers! Woohoo.

Congratulations Big Mike. ND man through and through.

Q seems to get most of the love, but Big Mike is now only the third ND player drafted in the top 10 since 1994.

Congrats to Mike. Not only a great player, but a great leader.

 

[Valpodoc85]

He will do well on and off the field

 

[HawaiianIrish]

Love it. Congratulations Mike. Go 49ers. Go Irish

Congratulations, Mike!

I feel like this needs an asterisk due to Jaylon.

Interesting note, all three players are OL. As an OL recruit, if you look at ND, BK has had all three of his starting left tackles taken no lower than 14th overall. That's truly remarkable

 

[FightingIrishLover7]

Congrats!!

As someone who doesn't keep up with the draft, I thought I heard that he was looking mid to late 1st round?

Was this inaccurate? Did he bounce back up?
(what were the comments from Kiper/McShay)?

Sounds like both SF and Oak held their cards close on McG and were going to take him all along. In their latest mocks, Mayock and Jeremiah both had him off the board by Oak at 10. When the 49er's selected him at 9, Oak traded down and still got OT Miller from UCLA at 15.

Question to the board:

Z Martin started 11 of 13 game at LT BK's first year. Who started vs. Pitt and who started vs. Western Michigan in 2010?
