  1. Tbh I was surprised by some of the speed rush stuff.

    But I still think he projects as more of an inside guy based on his size and build

  2. I NEED IT 😭😭😭 no but fr Bain trade back in for Tyson that would be amazing!

  4. Watching him, he looks like he has more tools in his tool box than Chase EVER did!

    All Chase had was a speed rush and would constantly over pursue. Watching this highlight reel made me comfortable drafting him if we were in the position too.

  6. After watching the game I would love the pick. Dude is a disruptive force. Miami had a worse team and you wouldn’t know from the way he caused pressure and rushed decisions from the QB.

  9. I’m weary of these types of highlights given how we learned that Chase Young really was a one trick pony who benefited tremendously from breaking his assignments and relying on raw athleticism, something not going to work in the league. A lot of these are the edge finding space and tuning around blocks, that straight up will not work in the NFL.

    The second play is actually not a bad blocking job but the RB fails to cut into the massive hole and runs further outside into the block.

    What I’m looking for is straight up disrupting the play by running through the blocking scheme, none of this Chase Young, avoid thc blockers shit. The first play is the best one heard, he straight up engaged the lineman and tossed him to the side. 90% of these other ones are running up hill around the block, it will get absolutely torched by mobile NFL QBs

  10. Love Bain. Also liking what I’m seeing from Bailey in the Texas Tech vs Oregon game.

    Everyone crying about us beating the Giants I think should relax, there are some good players at huge positions of need for us. I prefer Bain, but we should absolutely be able to find a big time player at 7

  11. The arm length is a real concern. I usually don’t get too into the weeds on that but it is definitely alarming that literally zero DL have made the Pro Bowl in the last 25 years with arms as short as his. It’s one of the reasons people believe Johnny Newton hasn’t translated to the NFL as a dominant college player. He’s gets enveloped by NFL OL with much longer arms and he struggles to get off blocks.

  13. The Problem with Bain is the same issue with James Harrison.

    James Harrison was constantly able to overcome his physical limitations with relentless effort, and a great supporting cast. Ryan Anderson comes to mind, which honestly makes a lot of sense for a comp.

    I loved Ryan Anderson as a player, so I wouldn’t mind.

  18. Don’t think he’ll be available when we draft. But wonder if other teams will be cautious about physical attributes such as smallish arms for edge? Johnny Newton is an undersized DL and still waiting to see what we got for 2nd round pick. Can’t miss on this pick in 2026.
