2020 Round 4A pick is Leki Fotu DT

[AZCrazy]

Fotu is an All American, team captain, and multi year first team all Pac 12. Pretty sure he's not a low-effort guy.

 

[Finito]

Big active body 3rd team all American

keep them bodies fresh on the d-line and keep rotating them keep em fresh I love it

 

[Finito]

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!

nothing on his resume says lazy or needs to be motivated.

 

[THESMEL]

Experts don’t think much of him ranked pages lower than current prospects being drafted! But we couldn’t stop the run - Keim thinks he can clog the middle! Will see - hope we get RB Benjamin next - would have taken him there

[Syracusecards]

Rob Rang had him listed as the 25th best prospect in the draft.

 

[Finito]

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.

explain to me how a guy you have mocked in the 7th round is better than a guy pretty much everyone on earth has going right where he went in the 4th?

I get it you don’t like him but to start spreading stuff like he’s lazy or needs to be motivated is flat out irresponsible

2x all Pac-12, 3rd team All American and. Team Captain.

nothing about him is lazy you don’t make lazy guys team captains

 

[PJ1]

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

Saw this also. A true run stuffer. We get more physical in the trenches. Love it. A two down guy. Saw nothing about effort issues. Just not an inside pass rush threat.

I agree Harry. I think James Lynch would’ve been a better pick right here than Fotu. He’s much more athletic imo

 

[Veer]

Fotu might look lazy on tape, I agree. But reality is, when you are the biggest/best player on the DL you will be the focus of the offensive gameplan and won't wreak havoc each and every rep. Additionally he was playing through an injury. As a rotational run stopper he will help us. Remember in the last couple years short yardage runs against us were almost automatic. With Fotu and now Lawrence we got some Fresh Beef up front.

 

[SECTION 11]

I love this pick

You must’ve watched every single one of Utah’s games to be so definitive about Harry’s personal opinion.

 

[WildBB]

Inconsistent motor. But he won't start ever, imo. Should be be a serviceable reserve.

Yea makes me feel better - nfl.com he was pages down the available prospect list - looked like a reach

 

[Finito]

You must’ve watched every single one of Utah’s games to be so definitive about Harry’s personal opinion.

You don’t become all Pac-12 2x and an All American plus team captain by having motivation issues or by being lazy. Yes I do watch a lot of Pac-12

Harry is a big boy he doesn’t need you to save him.

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.

Brenson Buckner will light a fire in his arse & get him motivated to play every play with effort. Hopefully lol?

Fotu is an All American, team captain, and multi year first team all Pac 12. Pretty sure he's not a low-effort guy.

Maybe you’ll take Tony Pauline’s word for it.
“Fotu could just as easily fall into the category of “most disappointing” as much as overrated. Despite being an incredible physical specimen who flashed brilliance at times, Fotu is too inconsistent for next-level decision makers who say he never met expectations. League sources talk about a motor that runs hot and cold as well as the inability to shed blocks against lesser opponents. His physical skills and upside could help Fotu find his way into the third round, but many believe he could’ve been a top-20 pick if he played to expectations.” He played on 56% of the available defensive snaps in his 2 years as a starter. This was not injury related.

Had a rough life from Oakland 3 year old Sister dies from fall, his Father does month later, family moves from Oakland to Utah with out enough money to bring possessions. Wish him luck

I think this could be attributed to a conditioning issue, no? I read that he lost a lot of weight for the combine. Hopefully something that can be remediated with a professional training and diet regimen. It’s a common thing I think with these huge interior guys right?

This is fairly offensive to assume I’m spreading some rumor that others don’t accept. Since you watched do much PAC 12, explain to me why he played on 56% of snaps the 2 years he started. He was not injured.

It’s see your Tony Pauline and raise you a Matt Miller

again you don’t get his resume by having motivation issues or being lazy.

He played through a calf injury last season.
