Devin Lloyd (Utah LB) -- DRAFTED BY JACKSONVILLE #27

[The Blackfish]

Back to Lloyd, just look at his interceptions and everyone says " they’re highlight plays” uh no!  The interceptions he got were all tough catches including one at the LOS that was over his head, he jumped and did not tip the ball, he just yanked out of the air.  
 If he puts 10 more lbs on and really learns how to use his length, he’ll be able to play some edge in the NFL as well.

He is the best linebacker in the draft in my opinion. Would be a steal if we take him at 15/16.

apparently just a so-so combine

Utah · LB

Lloyd's stellar play the last two seasons has teams excited about his NFL future. However, his workout did not match the outstanding athleticism usually possessed by linebackers taken in the top half of the first round. His 35-inch vertical and 10-foot-6 broad jump were fine, and he had a respectable 25 reps on the bench press. But Lloyd’s 4.66 40 time was not exceptional and neither was his work during on-field drills. His lateral movement and stop-start ability were only average, as were his hands in coverage work. Will the workout cause a significant drop in Lloyd's stock? Unlikely. But with other defenders excelling this week, his performance might make it difficult for teams to justify drafting him with a top-12 selection.

Maybe he never was a top-12 prospect, that's a tall task for an off-the-ball LB... his coverage, hands and play speed look really good to me during games.
