    He doesn't look all that impressive when you watch his "film" (i.e. Youtube).

    Yea I know......I may have gotten a little carried away on this one. I saw some film of him against Arkansas State (yes Arkansas State), he was a non-factor. Weird to have that kind of strength and speed and not appear to be productive.

    Boils down to I really want a dominant DT and there just doesn't seem to be one in this draft.

    He seems like a real big dude who just likes running into shit. That's not useless, but he doesn't have any special moves or really do anything with his hands. Maybe someone could develop him into a stud, idk.

    lol, yeah. Poe is an impressive physical specimen, but that doesn't always translate into production on the field. I'd rather have a guy who didn't do much at the combine but dominated on Saturdays than the other way around.

    What kind of scheme was he running? I mean, sometimes a guy isn't asked to be a 3 technique rusher....do we even know? I mean, if the skills are there, the strength is there, and he's placed in a good scheme w good players around him, could he be a force?

    Does that qualify w Carolina? Doubt it.
