I won't pretend I know who he is. But from watching NFLN it basically describes him as a run stuffer which we sorely needed depth in the NT position. I like the pick.

 

[Goldfield]

Love the big guys like this keeps the LBs clean.

 

[Rohinaz]

I'm into it. Lots of beef on the DL now. Great in a division that likes to run. Possible Peters replacement at NT in the future. A great draft continues.

Agreed. He can play in the rotation now and potentially step into a starting role in 1 to 2 years.

Anybody who plays/d rugby is a tough SOB. He's not afraid to stick his head in there and hustle. I like the pick.

 

[Jay Cardinal]

LOVE IT! This guy wrecked shop for years in the PAC. Him and Drake Jackson really stood out on the D-line. I think we will be pleasently surprised.

I like the pick because the guy is guaranteed to contribute in his own way. You dont get studs in the 4th round you get role players. Keim hit a single or a double here and that's fine.

Going into the draft wanted trenches and defensive speed Keim is checking boxes now RB

Yes. And Kiem has put together a pretty good rotation on the D-line.

This guy is a huge gap stuffer who will take up two OL by himself. He slimmed down to 330 for the post season events. He's bigger than Phillips, who is bigger than Peters. I'd love to see all of them line up together in a package that would eat the entire O Line.

This is a need but the dearth of remaining DL in the draft keeps the Cards from picking him later on even though there are higher rated players.

Got to have run stuffing depth in our division. This guy is huge, tough as nails with a high motor... Nuff said

We need guys like this.

Others liked him better than me. I’d rate him a miss. He’s one of those guys who looks good on highlight reels but takes too many plays off. He should be more of an impact player than he was. He can stuff the run but he gets easily frustrated when he’s not having a good game. He certain has the power to be a solid early down player, but I’m not sure he’s can be motivated. With the NFL going to more wide open, passing offenses there were better players on the board. Sorry!

Not good to hear this.

Who would you have chosen for Dline depth at that position?

 

[Garthshort]

Seems that Harry feels the talent is there but he needs to be coached up. For me, he's a good pick for a 4th rounder.

We lost depth on the D-line in FA...

It was a need.

 

[Syracusecards]

3rd rated DT in Lindys draft publication if that means anything to you.

They thought he was going to go on the first or second round

Harry, I wonder if his motor works as a rotational guy? The NFCW is so run heavy that a guy that can absorb that impact and clog up the middle in run situations several plays a game might make sense. With the guys in rotation I can’t see us relying on him enough that he can take plays Off but we’ll see.

Bravvion Roy is basically the same style player but better. I endorsed grabbing him in round 7. I want a high effort guy if I’m taking a role player. Others liked him here I didn’t. I’m not sure he can be fixed.

 

[AZCrazy]

He's a 1st and 2nd down guy only. He'll get some rest and be a rotational guy at first anyway.
All huge guys take occasional plays off. That's what they call the 'biology'.
