Alec Ogletree ?

[Jahh]

Difference between stopping a RB 1 on 1 and shedding lineman. i dont doubt Ogletree's ability to make plays when he is clean.
That performance is very uneven there is a whole drive in there were he gets taken out of every running play. When blockers get to him at the 2nd level he struggles. That doesnt mean he isnt a good player or wont improve but its on the game tape along with all the great plays

At times it looks like he gives up after a lineman gets their hands on him

He looks more like a SLB to then a MLB and I saw that Lacy ran over him a few times in that game. So I keep picturing Alfred Morris running through him if we draft him.

of course theres plays he looks bad.. What would that say about Barrett Jones, Fluker, and Warmack if Ogletree was dominating them and disengaging any and every block they were getting and also Micahel Williams as well?

This is the only place i've seen even the slightest negative thoughts on Alec Ogletree.. Its like no matter what he does, some of u just hate admiting anything other then ur originol opinion..

I could show Ogletree bulldozing throgh 9olineman and doing kartwheels through there blocks and i don't think it would change some of ur opinions..

The guys insnae.. Obviously, hes not gonna shed every block , and make every tackle against the run, and that video i displayed was to show just what kinda strength he has, and trust me, Taking Eddie Lacy on 1on1 when Lacy has a head of steam and stopping him dead in his tracks when even 10inches would get Lacy a TD is absoulutley impressive!

Show me even one single game of any prospect video u have put up that isnt uneven, with good and bad?

The diffrence of good prospects is they show what there capable of and in games show those capabilities.. I mean, there is 10other guys out there with Ogletree who are part of these plays and what not as well, and are prospects themselves..

Go do a full tape of Shawn Williams or Baccari Rambo, or any of em, and ur gonna see good and bad.. U just want to see the good being diffrence making stuff, and Ogletree 100pct shows that.. Hence why he got good grades and chatter when u see people on the web discuss or grade his performances in the Bama game and NEB game for that matter...

I didn't see lacy run over em and i've watched what i thought was just about every play from ogletree in that game? When did Lacy blow through em and cause a Missed tackle and keep going?

Where??lol He most certainly didn't get ran over by Lacy in this game, i don't know what u were looking at..

This is a brilliant tape.. Sure, he got blocked well on some plays, but thats every player in every game.. This is what i want on our giants... He was a stud agianst Alabama and the announcer gave em his praise just as he should have.. He made some plays off blocks and got blocked well on some plays.. Thats called "football".. Just like baseball, basketball, and hockey, u don't bat 1000 for 1000... This is a hell of a tape to show pro scouts and probably one of the main reasons this guys a sure fire 1st rder with no ifs, ands , or maybe's about it... I'll gurantee it, just as i did weeks ago..

He just doesnt deal with Lineman well at all. im not disagreeing with the play making part

It's the draft, if a lb as talented & athletic as Ogletree was awesome against the run, he'd be a top 10 pick....it is what it is, not many prospects are perfect....you just take the chance & hope they keeping improving as pros, just like with every draft pick

Hey guys, I've caught a lot of **** in this thread and I don't want anyone to think I ran away or anything...just forgot about the discussion.

What are u talking about? That picture dosen't even do justice his leaping ability and that play inpaticular.. This kids got crazy hops, and is extremely instinctive, judging by his 3sacks, 112tackles, 2FF, 1INT, 11.5 TFL while missing 4games.. He has insane athletic ability! Have u seriously not seen this guy play or something? Hes been the best defender on GA's team against both Bama and Nebrsaka... Hes flat out studly!

You act like his leaping ability has everything to do with being a good football player, let alone an NFL caliber LB. Ogletree is a raw, undersized safety-turned-MLB with limited starting experience and very average instincts for the position. All things considered he's just not a first round guy I'm begging the Giants to take at 19.

I tend to agree with just about everything RedEye is saying. Not to mention that I believe his opinion deserves a little more respect considering he has gone out of his way to put videos of draft prospects (including Ogletree) on Youtube.


*For the record: Probably 95% of the statements on this forum are opinion based. Just because someone uses phrases such as "bottom line" doesn't indicate they are stating any facts. It's for persuasive effect.
