Did he mean Kyle Hamilton, not X Watts) as the deep safety who is on the Ravens?

 

[Old Man Mike]

no. he meant X. His teammate.

 

[SWirishfan]

no. he meant X. His teammate.

Foskey isnt his teammate anymore...all the other guys are already in the League

I think he meant X. His way of pumping his teammate up going into the draft.

So why would the Ravens safety be playing to stop his teammates on offense?

Shh. It’s to the defense’s advantage.

Drue Tranquil had 75 tackles, 9tfl's, 3.5 sacks, 3 breakups and 2 qb hurries in his grad year, 2018.

Kiser will share a lot more reps with some talented young backers, but I'd wager his stats will be in line with Tranq's, plus a couple ints.

He'll have a young mike next to him (when he isn't the mike for sneed/ausberry to be on the field), so he won't have a Coney next to him vacuuming up 100+tackles.

In fact, I wouldn't be surprised to see the Kiser/Sneed tandem against the pass happy teams on the schedule.

Excited to watch that unit.

Kiser's final year stats: 90 tackles, 5.5 tfl's, 2 sacks, 2 ff, and 1 shoulda been monster int in the semifinal.

Next Tranquil like prediction: Kiser hangs around in the league for twice as long as as his critics think.

 

[NDPhilly]

really good number

 

[SDIrishFan]

Faster than Watts

 

[Edge]

If numbers I heard are correct, he had a solid day. Keep in mind no electronic timing.

Kiser’s Linebacker Combine ranks

7th bench 20 reps
9th vertical 34.5”
9th broad jump 9’9
11th 40 4.62
1st shuttle 4.20
1st 3-cone 6.8

 

[BobbyMac]

Thought he'd test a little better overall. Bet someone, somewhere he'd break 4.6 I think

 

[Edge]

Crazily, they don’t electronic time at Pro Days. It’s all hand-timed. All the scouts get together, they throw out 1/3 fastest times and 1/3 slowest and then avg the middle.

So he ran a 4.59 or better and I won the bet.

Got it!

Edge > Merck in Kiser thread at least.

Faster than Watts

Watts ran a 4.56.

[Old Man Mike]

For a linebacker: The shuttle and the cones. Fast through the trash.

saw some draft folks on twitter comp Jack to Alex Anzalone which is probably fair i would say

ESPN snubs several Notre Dame players in seven-round NFL mock draft

.

www.on3.com

this has Aaron Glenn drafting Kiser to Jets (to use him in the same way he used Anzalone at the Lions)

 

[Old Man Mike]

Hard to see Mills and Cross not drafted. Big enough (hands/arms/etc), plenty of proven experience and intelligence.

I'd bet Mills wont be drafted and Cross being asked to do fullback drills at combine does not bode well either

Congrats to Jack! Went much higher than I expected.

 

[IrishLax]

ND’s hit rate with athletic-but-questionably-sized in state linebackers is shockingly high.

It’s more of a hard-work, intelligence, and motivation position then some others

Kiser is another Drue Tranquill

You will be missed, my fellow Indiana brother.
Congrats on getting drafted before Sheduer

Hell, before Jack Sawyer

 

[Edge]

Kiser will not do well in the middle at all, he can't get off blocks, he gets swallowed up and pushed back. I get everyone's excited because someone's back but he had no where to go.

Mark this post.

Deliciousness!

Congrats to Jack! Lets Go Jags!
