Davin Vann, N.C. State. He only played at about 6'2" 280 but man what a first step and just pure explosion and disruption. He played DE in their 3-3-5. He's not really long enough to play DE in the NFL but I thought I seen measurements of a 4.79 40 and 33" vertical, so he can fill out his frame more and filter in as a sub-package rush DT. He's #1 in the below highlight: <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/LP4ky3gaQSE?si=Ev9fZYq8ez598yN8" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe> |

Van looks like he’s got potential. I could see him taking that Wharton role. I had a hard time finding him. He wasn’t on a few sites. 58th ranked dl on nfl draft buzz. How do you find these guys? What’s your best late round pick in the past? And your biggest miss?

https://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB/showthread.php?t=204569 I'd say Tevin Jenkins and Ross Blacklock were my biggest misses. Zach Sieler is my biggest late hit. Had some others like Christian Benford, Dante Stills, Rasheed Walker, Bradley Bozeman, and Isaiah McDuffie. Had some nice mid-round hits with Matt Judon and Aaron Jones. In terms of who I've pounded for here in the draft forum, **** if I remember them all haha. I'm sure I've hit as much as I haven't. I know my "what I want" drafts haven't been all that and a bag of chips at times, but by that point I've talked up plenty of guys that hit and plenty that flat-out turned into dogshit. Wide receiver is easily the most difficult evaluation. |

That’s the fun part about this. It’s really hard to guess who will be good. You’re showing age there with some of those picks! You’ve been watching the draft as long as Mel Kiper?

Shemar Stewart scares the hell out of me. I don’t want him.
Sure he’s great in the underwear Olympics but 1.5 sacks every year in college? The guy had Shemar Turner and Walter Nolen next to him for a year and then Shemar Turner and Nic Scourton, who had 10 sacks at Purdue the year prior. Idk man. |
FWIW the character concerns with Walter Nolen are starting to amplify, which is probably why the big players in mock drafts all have him out of the first rd entirely.
Apparently he’s a cocky little prick who doesn’t care about run defense and has an extremely entitled attitude. Going to so many different schools in HS and college doesn’t help. The scouts take calling him a mercenary seem like consensus. |

He’ll shower with Chris Jones and get humbled real quick. |
Yea, that just reeks of the Chiefs getting a player everybody inevitably regrets passing on. Bring me Nolen.

I bet there are some character flags there regarding maturity and entitlement but some of this goes way too far into the BS category at this point. I find it difficult to believe he's going to completely fall out of round 1 for it given the bullshit teams have drafted in the past, and in the top 10 at that. This is a player that should probably go #3 to New York. All it takes is one team to think he'll be fine in their culture and he's coming off the board very early. There was a ton of chatter about the same with Jermaine Johnson and he was a far less talented prospect. Still ended up going in round 1 at #26. |
