ISU gets a Minnesota DL transfer

[RustShack]

Why so people assume Mcdonald is gone? Last mock draft i saw had him going in the late rounds if at all. Anyway, happy with this one for depth!

Hes coming back.

Hes coming back.

But Williams said he would be our first first rounder in decades.

Chris probably gets caught up in the moment from time to time. Haven’t we all?

And a player that just transferred was going to be an all American. I just don’t like cheerleading.

 

[Cyforce]

Other than Campbell wants him, what makes this guy a solid pickup?

From what I have read, scouts say he is a mid round pick because he's not great against the run. Don't be surprised if he returns.

Size. Offer list from HS. D1 power conf is experience.

He could be, if he returns, adds more weight, and gets more experience as an every down player. Or at least a second rounder. Better than. Where he’s projected now after his first season not just being a pass rushing specialist, and being somewhat injury plagued this year.

From time to time or all the time?

Agree...that would be enough for me to stop being a Cyclone Football fan, I think.

Living in the Twin Cities and having to watch/ listen to Fleck...it would kill me to see him run our program. He's an arrogant, pretentious d-bag who is more about himself than his players. (His approach reminds me of Brian Kelly, honestly)

I'm pretty confident, as long as Pollard is AD, you won't see Fleck coaching here.

 

[cytor]

Fleck is a good recruiter and a terrible coach.

 

[WooBadger18]

I'm glad Fleck isn't Iowa State's coach because I don't really like him, but why would he come to Iowa State even if the job was open?

McDonald is a sack machine which the NFL loves. Is TJ Watt good against the run? McDoanld will have a long NFL career and be gone in the first couple rounds.

I am too lazy to look it up...how do those two compare in size?

both 6'4"

Will 245 lbs - this may be a stretch
TJ 251lbs

TJ does look thicker than Will

Wow...never would have guessed they were that similar...although as you pointed out Will might not really be at that weight! TJ does look thicker/stronger for some reason.

Is there actual rumblings that McDonald will be back? Or is this just the assumption.

Being a junior wouldn't him leaving be rumbling rather than staying? Not trying to be smart just don't think he'd say anything until he got pro day feedback.

FWIW, Kiper does have him the 5th/6th rush LB. I wouldn’t assume he doesn’t have much stock. I think he just hasn’t been scouted much yet. Seeing more mid round projections for him.

Maybe he stays to try and max his stock? But being a mid round pick isn’t a bad opportunity.

Being projected as a mid-rounder isn't a guarantee of getting pickup either. Just look at Hakeem, he left early and isn't on a team. I have no idea what he is doing besides tweeting lol.
