The Marcus Davenport Hype Train Is Leaving the Station

Phoenix49ers · 2017-12-27T20:13:31-08:00

I was thinking that with his small school status and need to further develop as a pass rusher, he wouldn't climb too high, I was even disagreeing with MadDog the other day but damn, the hype is real. In terms of a pure edge rusher, he has the prototypical size, length and explosiveness that you're looking for with a great first step. And by length.......I mean LENGTH....this cat has serious reach. If he blows up at the Senior Bowl(getting there from UTSA nonetheless) and the Combine, then a 1st round grade wouldn't surprise me. Still somewhat raw but the upside is pretty ridiculous on him. You might have never heard of the guy I had to keep moving up. I mentioned UTSA edge rusher Marcus Davenport—a 6' 7" freak of a receiver-turned-pass rusher—a few weeks back. I didn't have him in my early November mock. I put him at the end of the first round in the initial list I put together this time around, and then multiple execs told me he's not getting out of the Top 15. I wound up putting him at 14, behind only Chubb among rushers, and Davenport clearly has a chance to rise higher.https://www.si.com/nfl/2017/12/27/2018-nfl-mock-draft-notes-marcus-davenport-quenton-nelson-tremaine-edmunds-derwin-james?utm_campaign=sinow&utm_source=twitter.com&utm_medium=social&xid=socialflow_twitter_siJust had a chance to study Marcus Davenport DE UTSA. What an impressive player. My old boss use to say - small school guys better walk on water if you draft them high. This guy crosses the ocean.— Bryan Broaddus (@BryanBroaddus) December 27, 2017

Not all teams have the luxury of tanking for Bosa.

One team didn't have to, injury and luck let Bosa fall into their lap. No tanking involved.
