2016 1st round pick is Robert Nkemdiche DT

[Hollywood]

Better and crazier version of Dockett

That is the feeling I get. We have missed Doc...he brought just the right amount of nasty to the team.

He needs to dump the posse and leaches. Family included.

Can the Honey Badger help him? We have so many character type guys to help if he listens.

He told Suzy Kolber he's done that already and that he is in "good hands" with the Cardinals.

Personally, I am uber-jacked about this pick. No fear.

I might have preferred Butler because he has zero character issues but Nkemdiche has elite talent so I'm good with the roll of the dice.

Can't wait to see our defense !!

I'm thinking Robert Nkemdiche can generate an inside pass rush.

What I like: an athletic, penetrating defensive lineman to provide a pass rush up the middle

This would be nice to solidify our pass rush ability. Jones and CC could benefit if this kid can get focused

If he ever stays off trouble he can be great. Something about his face and attitude, I don't know you sometimes look at people and just don't feel right. I got a trust issue with him. Hope I am wrong

Cardinals pick Nkemdiche at No. 29

The Cardinals clearly don’t mind taking players some teams consider character risks and have hit on Tyrann Mathieu, a third-round pick in 2013 who’s become a productive player and stayed out of trouble. NFL Network’s Mike Mayock said after the pick that Nkemdiche is “a top-10 talent” and that Cardinals coach Bruce Arians “is the kind of coach” who can get the best out of Nkemdiche.

I thinking the Cardinals had some opportunities to trade down but chose to stay put with Nkemdiche available.

So he's a head case and a kid who might not have the motivation factor going. If we can get his head in the game, it sounds like he could be all world. Low floor, high ceiling. Sounds like the kind of risk we're in the position to take, no? Why not swing for the fences. He won't be inactive for all 16 games, that's for sure.

agreed. love the pick.

Yup. Get them from the inside... get them from the outside.

 

[Sunburn]

Scary how fast and fluid he is for a man his size.

 

[MadCardDisease]

Could be a monster. Hope he can keep on the straight and narrow.

Athletically, he's a legitimate freak of nature.

top prospect coming out of HS.. wish he didn't go to ole miss...

that being said,

really pumped on this pick. we need more nasty in the trenches, and this kid can be exactly that

Hey, remember when we couldn't get to the qb and had to scheme to get guys in the backfield?

We love us some SEC defenders and for good reason.

Does anyone else worry about HB around these types? The straight road is more difficult than the alternative. Does anyone else worry about peer influence causing a setback with HB?

No. Not me anyhow.

Seems like yesterday, ugh

Now it should all change. A weakness turned into a strength with one great offseason.

Yep. No denying the talent. No riskit No....................... Instant impact.

I don't. Because while there is always the possibility of an addict relapsing I don't get that from him. When I hear HB talk I hear a guy that is DEEP in his recovery. That guy is as rock solid as it gets

If this guy works out (and I think he will), our defensive line has completely transformed from last year. This fits the mold of our D perfectly - lots of great D lineman to rotate and brutalize offensive lines.
