How about Montez Sweat yesterday..

7 tackles. 2.5 TFL. 1.5 sacks.

Thats now 3.5 sacks & 4.5 TFL in the last 3 games for Sweat.

If Sweat comes back, we may have two first rounders between he and Simmons on the D-line. Considering we lose basically no one and add Rivers, Autry, and Cole, it’s hard not to be excited about the defense in 2018.

Then on offense we lose nobody that played yesterday except Donald Gray and Jordan Thomas, while adding multiple elite receivers... Bust out the shears.

Just thinking about next year makes me dream my pants.

I wouldn't say Sweat is 1st round....he'll be first round if he can do that against Bama, UGA, etc...he's definitely an NFL talent and is getting better every week.

He'll be a LB on the next level. Too small to be a DE. He's a great college player but needs to show more before anyone would take him 1st round.

Now, having said that, we are Miss St and our Juniors leave early when they shouldn't, so if he wants to be a 4th or 5th rounder, he can leave this year. He just might :/

I don’t expect Sweat back. The only thing keeping him from being a first rounder is about 20 lbs of added weight on that 6-6 frame. He’ll likely declare and spend a good portion of the offseason trying to put on a little more weight before the combine.

All that being said, we should still be pretty salty on D next year even without him.

 

[The Usual Suspect]

Did you notice on the pick six, Sweat was blocking any UK guy he could find and accidentally blocked our #13 to the ground when a UK guy ducked?

I haven’t heard anything on sweat leaving early, and besides a couple good games haven’t seen the play out of him to go early. Would be surprised if he does.

Just like TheState posted above, he has to do it against the big schools this year and he has only Bammer left and then a bowl game. If he goes off on both of them, then maybe, but otherwise he needs to come back and dominate next year. I'm glad we have him.

I don't know about 1st Round talent, but Sweat has been playing well all year. His stats don't show all the hurries that he has caused, and he has run down RBs from the back side many times. He's still got room to grow by being a little more disciplined on his keys. He normally sets a good edge, but a few times he has gotten overly aggressive and crashed allowing a big gain around his side by losing contain. If he can add 10 lbs without losing speed, then I think he could grow into a late second rounder.

He probably is going to blow up the stat books the rest of the way other than bama. I realize he isn't the normal JUCO guy in that he went DI first, but he's still at the point of the season where it clicks for most JUCOs, so the U.K. Game may be the norm going forward other than against bama.

Now playing how I expected him to from the beginning of the season.

Also, no way he goes 1st round. He may be a 2/3 rounder AFTER playing @ MSU next season.
