Simms 2022 Draft DT & LB Rankings | CHRIS SIMMS UNBUTTONED (Ep. 365 FULL)
/ nbcsports
That Georgia D-line was one of the best in college football history. Can’t wait to see how they translate to the NFL
Not only does he have good takes and admit his mistakes, Chris Simms smokes too! This guy is the best.
Look forward to these podcasts every draft season :) happy 4/20
Chris Simms is the shit
Great call on quay
I really enjoy listening to Chris
Leo Chenal jumped off the field at the Las Vegas Bowl. Chasing down Jayden Daniels etc. He'll be great for 8 years then coverage may catch up to him but he'll be a hero for a team for years.
Chiefs
This is why I love Chris Simms nobody has the balls that he does like he did for Leo Chanal
Leo is slept on , last time the draft underestimated a LB at Wisconsin, well he was this years DPOY. Leo isn't that level but point is , he's underrated as an athlete because he's white just like that man in Pittsburgh
I think several teams know about him. The ones who are high on him are hoping that his stock will be slept on.
Well Watt and Chenal are not even comparable because they play 2 completely different positions. Technically Watt plays OLB but it’s the edge position and what his responsibilities are is not even close to what an ILB are, schematically
with his stats, combine performance, and tape he should be the #1 LB taken. there is racial prejudice when hit comes to athleticism, and its not just the nfl. simms said what needed to be said in this particular case.
It's a lot of KZheadrs that have Leo number one this is ground breaking for big time ppl like Chris but in the draft world I been had Leo top like 3 months ago
Great podcast 🤣 I was wondering why there was no pod yesterday no cyap 😭
Love this show!
Interested in seeing how many Georgia defensive players get drafted.
Take on Leo Chenal was SPOT ON scouting wise and politically.
sadly yes.
I have had Evan Neal and Jordan Davis as my top two prospects for a while now. I realize Hutchenson and Walker are good but I think when u have a top 5 pick u got to shoot for the stars, especially for teams that have issues getting free agents.
I have Ekwonu and Cross at the top too but otherwise I agree. Go ahead and put Travis Jones next. Then Sauce.
Walker is the true definition of shooting for a star. Way more than Jordan Davis. Jordan Davises celing is Vita Vea and Vita is a base defense defensive tackle that got no value on 3rd downs. You know what Jordan is pretty much. A strentgh player that will maintain and patrol the interior of the DLine and stop the run.
Chris with the drop the mic @46:20 daaannnggg
If the Seahawks pick up a linebacker to bolster their lb group with the loss of wagner, the one guy I could get behind is Chenal. The dude is 100% undervalued in this class.
if hawks get him at 40/41 id freak the fock out bro
I love Dean I think he is top 15 he is the quickest mental processor in the draft
I think Leal actually would be better as a 3 4 DE. Teams like the Ravens that like those bigger DE that are athletic.
That’s been my take on Nakobe Dean wen I was hearing Jets at 10. Life is easy when u have Jordan Davis killing guards in front of you
And Wyatt and Travon walker. Dean had it basically perfect
a lot of times he was the guy putting them in the right positions tho and i saw the whole georgia d get fooled on plays and he was the only one going the other way he was the brain of that d imo an extention of the coach on the field
I'm glad titans drafted Ga mlb monti price last year late 3 Rd knowing he started over these ga mlb and had as good and better stats with them. Now that value is 1st. Nice way to get in front Yes 1st Rd dt busts are just behind qb on misses.
Chris Simms - free da herb bro ! Thanx for the insights ! Respec' !
Chris would you compare Jordan Davis to Vince Wilfork ?
The potcast 🌱🐸
Jordan Davis would be my #1 overall pick.
He's a beast.
If Ravens get Davis I hope Chris is right about him getting his own pass rush in the NFL. That position has changed too. There are more DT/NTs who can get pass rush and they need to in today's NFL. Ravens definitely have old school MLBs still. We drafted 1 modern day MLB and that was a fail so he plays WLB now.
I agree for the most part except for Travis Jones and Devontae Wyatt I think Jones is the 2nd best DT in this class. I think he is more versatile than Wyatt. I think Wyatt is good but he is an acquired taste scheme fit kind of a player. I agree Davis is the top pick!!! He is a top tier DT talent.
Get it get it
Lloyd is 24 years right not sure, forgive me if I'm wrong
I'm just worried about Davis and his snap count. He played 40% of the snaps on his career and there isn't a single dominant dl player who has played that little of the snaps and been a top 5 player. I don't think he would hold up playing alot of snaps each week in the NFL, Alabama showed he gets gassed easily. Great talent but won't produce with his conditioning being as it is.
So he needs to be fit?
Demarvin Leal is the next Cameron Jordan
There's a different guy... the other guy sounds like Rich Eisen. So that was a good shtick for him.
Christian Harris is the freaken bomb! The guy can cover receivers and started 3 years at Bama! But Sims hates Bama!
Simms does not hate Bama. Evan Neal and Jameson Williams are his number ones in OL Guard and WR. Dude 🛑 the woe is Bama vibe. Simms calls it like he evaluates it. 🤘 CS
Jordan Davis 14th pick 2022 Draft
sorry bud he goes #9 to the seahawks 😋
Please don’t let Jordan Davis end up with Tampa.
I would have a hard time not drafting Jordan Davis #1 overall. I think he'll be a team-changer on defense. If he goes in the middle of the first round it will be a steal.
Simms you gotta out Troy Anderson in this
Devonte Wyatt has character concerns that's why he has less buzz
And he’s 24
IMO Devonte Wyatt has a better chance at having a longer, more successful career than Jordan Davis
Explosive get off 😂
Simmsy says “through the trash”, doesn’t he mean “through the traffic”?
Yes. Although I’ve never heard anyone say it that way before. Another case of Simmsism lol
It's a footballism, I've heard Charles Davis call it through trash as well in the Madden games.
I’ve heard trash be used to describe the chaos in the trenches
Man Jordan Davis is not going to be that good. He is a freak, but he is never going to be able to handle being in the game enough to be a star. Davis could be Star Lotulelei, maybe even a Vida Vea, but no one here would say they would rather have any of them players over Arron Donald, Fletcher Cox, or Warren Sapp
the Dean disrespect is real, he better than that Leo guy but he's very good
I heard scouts bigger on Quay than media, heard he want make it out 1st
Simms is so brilliant, maybe he needs weed to slow down that powerful brain!
Totally agree with Dean. He's overrated. Glad someone else said it.
Dean is not as athletic but is super smart sees the plays before they happen which is what makes him elite
@@jalenmontford1619, maybe I've only watched 2 Georgia games. One being the national championship, I really didn't see him due much. It could just the games I saw, maybe other games he's played much better. Or it's just his role in those games he was asked to spy on the QB often or something that's hard to judge. I didn't see him flying all over making tackles...so what you are saying makes sense.
Dean was the defensive QB. Everything ran through him. Great speed too. Plays with a massive chip on his shoulder at all times. No disrespect to you though, I’m a UGA fan so I watched him game in and game out. He definitely made his presence known vs Michigan.
@@davidl1307, no disrespect taken. I think it's more my perception of the media hype. What I mean is I'll hear about Georgia players, Dean will always come up so often more than any player on the team. I'm thinking, he's not even the best player on his team. Jordan Davis is the best in my opinion. I have very little doubt Davis will be a top DT in the NFL. I could easily see him being an AP or making the PB. Dean, I have doubts how he will do guarding a 6'5" NFL TE or even getting blocked by a NFL guard. I'm not saying Dean isn't a great player. He's a great player. I'm saying the recognition he gets on the national media compared to his other plays is overstated. That's why I see him as overrated. It's only weeks after the season Trevon Walker has gotten recognition. If that makes any sense. At least thats my take. A New Yorkers perspective of the limited media coverage of Georgia Football.
