HoosierCat Posted April 27 Author Report Posted April 27 This is just taking your pick of UDFAs Quote
TJJackson Posted April 27 Report Posted April 27 I hope the top UDCFA punters out there realize that the starting punter job is there for the taking Quote
ArmyBengal Posted April 27 Report Posted April 27 Jesus help me. Glad we didn’t trade up to make sure the taxi squad is jammed pack. 1 Quote
Stripes Posted April 27 Report Posted April 27 Twitter's mindless spam is making me like this pick. Quote
COB Posted April 28 Report Posted April 28 A bit of a head scratcher. You never know. This guy could end up playing serious minutes, you guys know how this league is. Quote
HoosierCat Posted April 28 Author Report Posted April 28 (Pinches nose) JFC you people do know how the draft works, right? Sevens are just UDFAs the team would like to not have to compete for. Kid is a perfectly cromulent developmental guy who, like every other seventh round pick, probably won’t amount to anything, but who knows? Last time I checked, Karras any getting any younger and his deal is up soon. This guy is probably not the answer but may as well take a shot. Quote SCOUTING REPORT: STRENGTHS Has the functional strength to hold up against the bull rush, and Lee shows exceptionally quick and precise hands. Fundamentally sound and understands blocking angles, using body positioning to his advantage. Disciplined awareness and good intelligence. Quick-footed with smooth movement skills to cover a large area. Rangy with above average lateral ability. Bursts off the snap and sets up quickly with little wasted motion. Consistently keeps his feet sliding while maintaining power when dealing with speed, often sending speed rushers flying past the pocket Lee may not be a top-end mauler, but he has some unique traits in the run game and could probably transition to a guard spot if necessary. Long enough to provide some position versatility, potentially capable of holding up at guard or even at right tackle. https://www.nfldraftbuzz.com/Player/Matthew-Lee-OL-UCF Quote
volcom69 Posted April 28 Report Posted April 28 Goodberry loved this pick called it a steal where they got him at. 1 Quote
ArmyBengal Posted April 28 Report Posted April 28 It should be a lot of fun watching him practicing with the other practice squad guys !! Honestly, he could actually make the roster, but that’s because the o-line depth here is so bad it’s comical. Quote
Stripes Posted April 28 Report Posted April 28 He’s very likely to make the roster. The only competition is Trey Hill. Quote
ArmyBengal Posted April 28 Report Posted April 28 My point exactly. Glad he's here if for no other reason than what they currently have is horrendous. A 7th round rookie coming in with a real opportunity to leave camp as the #2 is beyond bad. I'm wishing him luck, but I hate this situation. Quote

He is absolutely a steal. 55-game starter with great technique and functional strength. Absolutely doesn’t give up sacks. Biggest issue was his weight at the East west game, 288, but he played in Miami at 301 so I don’t think it’s a big concern. Give him a year to buff his run blocking and he will be good to go. 1 Quote
volcom69 Posted April 29 Report Posted April 29 So according to PFF he is the highest graded center coming out this year, crazy he was still there to take. Quote

The two main objections appear to be the aforementioned weight issue and that he was viewed as a pure center. Most of the centers who went higher like JPJ were also seen as potential guards. I think Lee could surprise in camp but most likely ends up ticketed for the taxi squad, at least to start the year. Quote
COB Posted May 15 Report Posted May 15 Some house finches built their nest in one of my downspouts, Matt Lee’s over here now getting it unclogged. 1 Quote
TJJackson Posted August 19 Report Posted August 19 I am guessing that he isnt returning your calls of late to get more yard work done....... Quote
