The Robert Nkemdiche (DL) Bandwagon

Perfect world.

Yeah. Of all those prospects, I worry that Ogbah is the most unrealistic. I personally think he'll go in the middle of the first round. I'm hoping national projections are right and he is a second round pick.

Ogbah would be a good trade up option if he falls into the late 1st round. If the Ravens could leave the first round with Nkemdiche and Ogbah, our front seven would be set for years to come, even after Suggs and Doom retire.

Yeah, I agree. He just reminds me of a Suggs or even a Chandler Jones. I really like him a ton. I think he may go before we can get him as a BPA, unless of course we do some creative trades and trade back from our first pick, get another pick next year and a second round this year, then trade up to get him and another guy using two first round picks.

this is a great article on nkemdiche, and especially for us ravens fan who are seeing him as a 5-tech for us. he may not have stellar technique, but he has a great sense of leverage and pad level, and everything else is natural talent, like his brute strength and hand quickness and great pursuit and a knack for forcing his massive body through skinny gaps, so i think it will all fall into place for him. as a 5 technique, no short armed tackle in the entire league could handle the guy(ahem, beachum, solder, thomas), and every prototype LT would really have their hands full just dealing with his power. with a speed rusher at OLB he will provide an unmanageable amount of game wrecking capabilities, he will have our OLB's on an island with TE's on a regular basis.

Charlie af walterfootball.com has him going 14. Days scouts don't like him. Low football iQ and awareness.

Has ogbah going 6th overall.

I'm not surprised. I don't think it's any secret how much I like Ogbah. I think he's worthy of a top ten pick. I wouldn't even be surprised if the Ravens took him in the top ten. He's exactly the kind of player we like.

Id agree on the ranking of Nkemdichie I really don't see a top 10 guy other than from an athletic standpoint. There are too many glaring things that would make me question taking him in the top 15 even. I would take many players over him at this point, this is not to knock him as I think he could be good but I just couldn't justify it

he seems a lot like leonard williams. the national media loves the guy, pro scouts just dont think as highly of him. 14th overall sounds ridiculous though. and im not buying into the anti-hype, i think nkemdiche is every bit as good as the media says, and he has flaws like every other player, but clarence brooks would turn this guy into the premiere 5-tech in the league.

Yeah he has his flaws but the guy is an absolute freak athletically. If the FO thought he could fit, I would be perfectly happy with taking him.
