    Newton has small arms. Coach Morris found Kobie Turner and now Ruke. Keep the faith.

      Length and athleticism were the difference! Raheem loves length!

    The Falcons play a 3-4 defense. Newton isn't a 3-4 DT. They wanted O cause he can play DE/OLB and DT. Morris actually said that out his mouth. He wanted a guy who added speed physicality, explosiveness, and athleticism that could play up and down the line and stand up.

    Ruke compared himself to Chris Jones in an interview, Chris Jones was drafted two picks earlier than him his year (high second round)

    Hope they can develop him nicely. He has Grady to learn from so that’s great.

    He was being held in the 2nd to last play. Falcons have put a premium on arm length this year. Plus they ran a lot of stunts in LA.

    Dude you just a talking head or do you do research. The coaching staff did a study and they focus on guys with longer arms and also they only take players with a certain makeup. You will notice the guys they draft love football and live in the gym. Falcons also do an extensive background check to look for the profile they will accept. so did you see the background checks, medicals ? Did you measure the arms? Did you do 1 on 1 interviews to see if players were a character fit? We would not need scouts if all you had to do was pick the guy that had the most production!!!

    this excerpt from an ESPN article should answer your question on why Ruke over Newton:
    "Raheem Morris and Jeff Ulbrich put their heads together a few years ago when both were coaching with the Atlanta Falcons. They did an offseason study on which physical traits were most effective for NFL defenders.
    The attribute that kept popping up? It wasn't speed or height or anything having to do with bench-press reps.
    It was length. Or, more simply, how long a player's arms are -- his wingspan. That seems like a more advantageous characteristic for basketball. But it can be a gamechanger in football, too, especially on the defensive side of the ball, Morris said."

    If my memory serves me well, Grady had the "potential" tag used on him coming out of Clemson. Although, Takk did as well and look how that panned out.

    Ruke was grabbed because of his atletic score top 15 most athletic dt of all dt since 1987

    Great film. He close on alot of plays that would have gotten him in the first round. But we need his power and the way he can man handle guards and centers is impressive.

  • @AntonioG.2405
    @AntonioG.2405 27 дней назад

    Newton had surgery for a partial Jones fracture of his right foot in January. A checkup determined that he has a similar issue with his left foot as well. So that is why he was passed up by the Falcons.

    Newton has very low upside, very short arms. Ruke has madubuike/chris jones mold

    Exactly why you will EVER be near a front office. Now your guy with the the T-Rex arms (Newton) needs another surgery on his other foot. Crazyy huh? With all that crying u did on this video 😭

    Newton? Lol. This didn't age well. He is now having the same surgery on the other foot that made him slide in the draft originally.

    This guy breaking down film like he knows more than our scouts. Lol, please. It's not a reach if it's a need. You can spit all the little percentages and stats you want, you can tell you've never played ball. You can't measure his want and his hustle.

      People often overdraft athleticism, Falcons probably felt a team was going to take him before they got to him. Travon Walker just went over Aiden Hutchinson.
