I'm telling y'all Ruke looks just like Jeffrey Simmons coming out of Mississippi State. He didn't really use his hands either he was just bullying people in college but learned to use them in the league.
Facts, college film also looks identical to Maduibuike and Chris jones when they were in college
@@Cjhilly yep now that you mention it, those are two very good comparisons too.
Ruke is going to well with the Falcon
@@DanielOrhorhoro-zo8me crazy question, are you really related to Ruke?
2 things. Ruke is raw and his awareness isn't great but this kid's power is different. Power and strength are different attributes and although they are related, they are directly correlated. Second, it's not a guarantee that Grady is on the roster at the start of the season. Jarrett coming off the ACL is probably going to be diminished if for no other reason but the injury. Could they do more with 12mil? We'll see
After the news of Jerzhan Newton, and that being the likely reason as to why he fell, I don’t blame the Falcons going and getting their guy. That guy being by far the most athletic/high upside DT at that point in the draft
All these armchair GMs think they know everything and they know nothing...I think ur right, the Falcons made the right choice by taking Ruke instead
Agreed. There is so much information that teams have that we as the general public have no idea about. Many of those facts guide the decisions that GMs and teams make. Raheem told us at the combine that the most important information you get from the combine is the medicals!
I like ruke but i think getting trice was a steal.
@@derrellleggett8399BINGO!!!! …pundits seem to conveniently forget Raheem said Medicals was one of THE most important evaluations at the Combine.. Real fans Know the Process. RISE UP!
@@nebtalksI am just ready for the process to process something. Outside maybe Ebiketie, we haven’t produced shit.
Ruk played 1 yrs of HS football and got a full ride to Clemson tht says a lot about his upside the Falcons made a bold but great move this will b a great player for the team...
reminds me of Warren Sapp. On field, not off. Not just raw power, plays with attitude
I like ruke. Definitely an upside pick with good measurables. We’ll see.
nice commentary
If we gas up Drake, Pitts n Bijan we goin.
Great episode! Bilal Nichols???? We need more than that from him.
Better comp is Jeffrey Simmons. Go look at his college tape/highlights from Mississippi St. It's damnear identical to Ruke.
This draft makes me think the Falcons will be cutting some veteran players on the DL after this season.
Does him practicing against a Top 3 O Line?.... Does that help his development since playing alongside Grady and David doesn't affect Ruke's development, in your eyes?
Zion gonna b great
Ruke Skywalker!!!!
Ruuuuuuuuukkkkkke
Dorlus to he's fast 4 a big de
Take 45 of the falcons needing more pass rush
He'll be good but Brandon Dorlus will be better
We save 14 million by cutting Jarrett next year
Who's gonna move 6ft5 320
Well it players in the league that absolutely can believe that
@jesseowensrobinsonjr.2460 good luck with that task nfl
Ruke the Nuke
That was a wasted 2nd rd pick!!
You won’t be saying that in September stfu.
I would've got Rakestraw but hey they know sumn we don't
He better workout… terry has been terrible with 2nd round picks
How was Bergeron a terrible pick? 🤔
@@Cjhilly never said he was bad but look at the rest of the seconds in terrys tenure. Bergeron is the exception to that rule.
Not really bro Richie grant is just playing wrong position he should be in certain packages closer to scrimmage he has made plays ints and hard hits
The secondary besides Bates suck. Nobody caught any interceptions. AJ Terrell is overrated the falcons should be looking for corner help. He can’t catch and gets beat deep. Also we should be looking at center and right tackle who can pass block.
