"This guy is such a stormin', all-out football player," the scout said. "He absolutely gives every inch of his soul to the game. He's out of control at times but he bounces up. ... He compares as closely to [Clay] Matthews as anybody." A different scout agreed Bosa"could stand up" but said "I don't know why you'd do that," because Bosa (who he called a "glass eater") is "a 4-3 left end and in nickel he's (inside)." Bosa's father John is a former first-round bust of the Dolphins. "I did his father and he was kind of a stiff, straight-line guy," said another scout. "This guy must have got the mom's flexibility or something. Justin Smith is a pretty good comparison. He was so technique-oriented, too. He uses his hands like a third-year pro."

Wow. That was rude.

Yeah. Said he did his dad and that his mom was loose.

Joey Bosa's great-grandfather used to work for Capone. His nickname was "Batters" after he killed 2 guys with a baseball bat.

He probably is, just like 90% of the league.

Sounds like an intro to a Jerry Springer episode

I think, we should pass on Bosa

Watching him for the last 3 years I have no doubts he can play OLB in our scheme. I also have no doubt he can move up to DE on passing downs. At Ohio state he was able to rotate all along our line. He's only of the strongest players I've ever seen. He was too strong for most college OTs he went up against. One game he picked up the RB and used him as a weapon to sack the QB. At OLB he's expected to stop the run and rush the passer he can do both. He also dropped back in coverage at times and covered LBs. he's at 269 right now perfect size for a 3/4 OLB. He's the same size as lynch but is stronger! This is how you improve our pass rush. Thoughts?

Whether he's an OLB or the next Justin Smith, they had damn well better take him if he's still there at #7. I don't expect him to be there.

Still think he goes to Dallas.

Are u starting extra threads for a reason? Or is Ohio States education that bad?

That's my guess as well, but you never know. They also need DB's and they also need a QB of the future.

Lol. "I bet you nobody has ever heard of this guy before."

I'm pretty sure he didn't go to Ohio State
