2010 NFL Draft, Philadelphia Eagles,Brandon Graham,Ourlads.com

The Eagles with several draft picks moved up aggressively and got their man. Most people thought Philly was moving up to take safety Earl Thomas but made the bold move for a top level pass rusher. Two-and-a-half year starter. A disruptive force that must be game planned to contain him. Almost impossible to single block him. Usually needs a double team and a chip block from a back or motion receiver. Has a passion for the game. Bites, scratches, fights with controlled violence to get to the quarterback. Has the ability to come off the edge and go to the quarterback. A smart player that adjusts to schemes quickly. Good awareness. Effort to the whistle. Outstanding hand, foot, and lateral quickness. Miraculously his arms grew 2 inches from the Senior Bowl to the Combine. Good use of hands to knock down the pass protector’s punch. Top level positional agility and lateral quickness. Flattens out well against the outside run. Consistent to bend and push the pocket in his pass rush. Relentless in his play. Works to finish. Makes a blocker work from snap to whistle to block him. A natural knee bender. In 2009 had 64 total tackles, 26 for loss, 10 1/2 sacks, and 2 forced fumbles. For his career he had 124 tackles, 56 tackles for loss, 29 1/2 sacks, and 8 forced fumbles. OSR:14/35. (A-32 1/4, H-9 7/8, BP-31, 10-1.64).
