FSU guys....

  • What should I know about Nigel Bradham? Looks like a physical freak from combine #'s, but how does he play on the field? TIA...

  • Very solid LB, almost a do it all except he can get burned in coverage sometimes

    Former 5 star, hits like a truck and literally hurts people upon impact

    FSU Nigel Bradham 2011 Highlights

    This is a highlight film of FSU's LB Nigel Bradham. He really stepped up his game in his senior season. My personal favorite was the COMPLETELY legal hit against Miami.

  • good LB, had some stiffness issues early on. this last half of his senior season, he has played his best football since being at FSU. you are getting someone who might be finally putting it all together.

  • Love this pick. Sounds like he has a ton of potential and will most likely be groomed to play SLB to start off his career.

    Maybe be the 2nd LB in nickel sets down the line with Barnett as Sheppard isn't really a cover guy.

    Special teams guy, big hitter, athletic, and good upside. I love it.

    Like said above it all came together this year and when you consider it was literally his second year of actual coaching I would like the idea of him getting even better

    Good kid too, he is strong as an ox too

    As a true freshman he showed up stronger than any LB we had and beat Everette Brown in a incline bench test

    Did 315 like 6 times or something to Brown's less reps, forget what Brown did

    Is it true ACC released a statement saying the ref made a mistake and he should not have been ejected?

    Ran down Demps, too. Yeah, he had an angle but it's still pretty impressive.

    Yes, and that whole crew should have been fired

  • Alright...same question about Zebrie Sanders. I know NoVa hates the FSU OL, so I'm expecting a lot of derogatory statements about him.

    He needs a lot of work, and needs to sit and learn before he gets on the field

  • I like this pick. Another tackle who had some hype.

    I thought I heard from FSU fans he has good upside, just couldn't stay healthy.

    He'll be a depth piece, and be the 4th tackle on the roster.

    That's fine, we've got 3 OT's who can start currently (Hairston, Pears, Glenn), so if he sits it's not a big deal. Just need depth for now.

    Yeah, even the ref afterwards when they looked at it was like my bad yo, it was a clear clean hit

    It was the ejection that was so uncalled for though, penalty is the game today... but ejecting him was just comic

    It just happened so fast and was so loud and scary looking the ref thought Bradham led with his head ( understandable cause on TV it was loud and I imagine on the field it sounded like a .22 round went off and he obviously thought only a helmet to helmet clash could make that sound, but Bradham actually just hits that hard.... and it you watch it he didn't even run into it, he just lunged into a moving target and nearly 360'd the poor kid )

    You obviously never heard me comment on Sanders, you just drafted a career backup at best who might have a 3 maybe 4 year career

    Sanders is not NFL material, people hyped him cause he started for 4 years ( 3 of those years the OL he started on was terrible ) but as the process began and teams watched film and did real homework he fell from a talked about 1st rounder to 5th

    There is good reason for it, the only positive I can say about the kid is he is always healthy.... but his play at times leaves me wishing he was injured

    In 5th round a decent swing tackle is rock solid.

    NFLN says he's long and athletic just needs to get strong.

    I doubt Bills are expecting a starting OL from him. Especially when they just resigned their RT, drafted Glenn 2nd round and already have Hairston from Clemson who was decent at LT as a rookie.

  • Zebrie has one of the best YouTube football clips of all time. Search for it. He just sits in his stance as the play goes on. Classic.

  • Bradham will struggle in coverage, but he's strong as an ox, and with his speed, he can take a head off if given the chance.

    Zebrie...Zebrie needs work. The dude played too early, go shuffled around all the time. Some.consistency will be good for him.

    Then again, I wouldnt be shocked if he didnt pan out. JMO

    Zebrie is a 5th rounder, if he doesn't pan out no harm done. It's a crap shoot at that point, and like I said he will be our 4th tackle at best. So not really relying on him.
