*****The Derrick Nnadi Thread*****

Quote:
Overview
Listed at 6-foot-1, 312 pounds, Nnadi is not the largest nose tackle in front of scouts during the 2017 season. Few will outwork him, however, as he was named a third-team All-ACC selection, compiling 56 tackles, 10 for loss, and 3.5 sacks in 13 starts. ACC coaches named him first-team all-conference in 2016 after earning the team's Defensive Most Improved Player award in the spring. Nnadi started 11 of 13 games played, fighting through an early-season ankle injury to be credited with 49 tackles from the middle, 10.5 for loss, and six sacks. He collected third-team all-conference accolades from league media as a sophomore, starting every game (45 tackles, two sacks), following a true freshman campaign that saw him on the field for nine games (18 tackles, six against Georgia Tech's triple-option rushing attack in the ACC Championship Game). Despite his lack of height, Nnadi was considered a top 10 defensive tackle prospect nationally after amassing 33 sacks in his final two years of high school ball.

It's hard to find "bad tape" for Nnadi. While NFL teams may see an undersized 4-3 nose tackle with limited pass rush value, I see a player with good power at the point of attack who can dislodge from single blocks and make plays. Nnadi has a good motor, active hands and enough pass rush ability to cause problems for blockers up front. Nnadi has the physical tools to play in one or two-gap schemes and has NFL starting ability.

Strengths
  • Robust build with burly booty
  • Low center of gravity increases leverage along interior
  • Possesses outstanding play strength and can chunk plates around in the weight room like it's nothing
  • Has good snap quickness
  • Able to attack gaps or read and react as 2-gapper
  • Keeps eyes peeled on ball-carriers
  • Can stick and shed blockers to catch runners darting through his gaps
  • Lateral agility and low pad level make him hard to secure and pin on move blocks
  • Productive tackler with good range
  • Leverages gap and works to maintain run fits
  • Shows ability to recover when attacked and dislodged from angle block
  • As a pass rusher, can counter from gap to gap when facing single block
  • Utilizes a swim and a quality slap and rip to attack the edge
  • Has lower body drive to generate some pocket push
Weaknesses
  • Despite his compact build and quality mass, is still undersized by NFL standards as interior player
  • Will get big-boyed at times when he's facing a wide-body with power
  • Needs to win early with his hands to stay ahead in the rep
  • Can still improve quickness to diagnose run direction
  • Base is a little inconsistent through contact and he will lose some ground against quality double teams
  • Pass rush loses steam when guards land a stiff, initial jab to start the rep

Not having a solid much less advanced NT hurt the Chiefs bad in 2017. When Reid first got here, he had two seasons of above average play on the defensive line. The subsequent seasons sucked in that aspect.
And if we're expecting CB's to be LB's, we're not doing it right.
I like what Veach is doing. He took an expected unsexy draft, and made the most with what he had, building according to his philosophy. If philosophy is "from the inside out", so be it.

We can debate speaks versus a CB like Isiah Oliver (without trading up) all day and night long.

We can debate O’Brien and somebody from the fourth round of moving up for Yiadom ....and both sides can have points that are valid.

Drafting Derrick Nnadi though...this kid is gonna be special.

This was a damn good pick with high potential.

Chris Jones was one of the strongest natural DL I’ve seen in the last 5 years as a rookie. This guy is just as strong and he knows how to use it.

Jones problem is his height makes it hard for him to have good pad level bc guys get under him.

Nnandi is already at a low center of gravity. Reminds me of Ravens DL Brandon Williams. Hoping we are getting a similar guy.

His flag plays fell off b/c he no longer had a NT next to him who command double teams. Jones for a lot of attention from opposing offenses last season.

Is it weird that he kinda reminds me of Jerry Ball before Ball literally became a big fat ball?

Grunhard said on 810 this morning that someone with the Chiefs mentioned Nnadi to him back in January as a guy the team loved. I can't remember the guys name with the Chiefs though.

Said Nnadi was a run stopper and the hardest working guy on the team at Florida St.

Glad to get this guy signed. Teams wanting to run on the Chiefs like they did in the last few years will be disappointed. This D. will be stacked with run stuffers.
