2017 1st round pick is Haason Reddick

[BullheadCardFan]

What do you think?

 

[BullheadCardFan]

We are taking a big chance that he can convert to ILB

Dansby will have to school him.

 

[overseascardfan]

Versatile piece who has 3 down ability who can cover and rush the passer.

 

[BullheadCardFan]

Could he be a diamond in the rough?

 

[Shane]

Yuck

Like the pick. Good kid speed to cover 10 1/2 sacks.

GBR 40

Warming up to the pick after watching film.

 

[Jay Cardinal]

Our backup to our backup's backup plan.

 

[Finito]

Best LB in this draft

Dwash w/o weed basically

 

[JeffGollin]

He was one of top 5 guys on my board (Howard,,Foster, Howard, Howard the other 4).

Love his back story - fits "Cardinal culture" the staff is trying to create. Gotta assume BA&SK rated him ahead of Foster - all things considered.

 

[LoyaltyisaCurse]

Meh

 

[redheat]

Did we go too safe?

 

[Harry]

Certainly a talented athlete. I'm worried about his ability to cover on the outside and also to diagnose the play. He should be fine with a year or two experience. I just don't think he's the game changer Foster would have been.

 

[az jam]

Excellent pick. We will have one of the best LB corp in the NFL.

With an Earl Thomas type on the board (Hooker)....... This sucked IMO.

Foster is also the better player of the two. And the more natural at the position.

 

[unseenaz]

My initial reaction was UGH because I didn't want an OLB in round 1.. if the rumors of him playing in the middle then I am more open to it.. makes me wonder where Foster was on their boards though.. maybe if hooker falls any further we can trade up

 

[D-Dogg]

I hope to be wrong but I'm not moved by this. Good kid, athletic, but that's a massive transition. Boom or bust and probably the latter.

Freaking trades jobbed us.

 

[overseascardfan]

For guys worried about his transition to ILB. He was a S in HS, also remember Bucannon never played a down at LB until the NFL so it may not take long for Reddick to make an impact. His character shows he is willing to put in the work.

How do you figure? The best safety in the draft went 2 spots later

 

[BullheadCardFan]

Freaking trades jobbed us.

Seems to happen to us quite often. Trade in front of us to get someone on our board.

Reddick will get a chance to play both ILB & OLB.

Arians believes Reddick should find an immediate role, at least in a sub-package.

Keim said Reddick has the same type of passion as @deonebucannon20: "This kid will run through a wall for you."
