Around SBN: Leandro Damiao Is Still Really Good

Bills select Penn State DE Aaron Maybin at No. 11

Img_20110806_213313_tiny by Brian Galliford on in 2009 NFL Draft

With the eleventh overall pick in the 2009 NFL Draft, the Buffalo Bills have selected Penn State DE Aaron Maybin.

Yes.  I'm as surprised as you are.  Though my surprised is a pleasant one; yours may not be.

Maybin is an early entrant in the draft after a redshirt sophomore season in which he amassed 20 tackles for loss and 12 sacks despite having very little on-field experience.  The big question mark surrounding Maybin in the pre-draft process was his size; weighing just 236 pounds in college, Maybin put on approximately 15-20 pounds and still ran under 4.6 seconds in the 40 yard dash at his Penn State Pro Day.  Rumblings Scouting Report: Penn State DE Aaron Maybin

Questions remain about his ability to play every down at the NFL level as a rookie.  In Buffalo, he won't have to.  With veterans Aaron Schobel, Chris Kelsay (for now) and Ryan Denney on the roster, Maybin will be asked to be a situational pass rusher as a rookie while he adds another 10 pounds or so to his 6'4" frame.  Maybin jumped ahead of other ends on the Bills' big board thanks to his long arms, tremendous athleticism and, far more importantly, his big-play ability.

The Bills are unquestionably gambling with this pick - but in terms of raw upside, it's tough to top Maybin in this draft class.  We've said all along that the Bills would target a defensive difference-maker with their top pick, even after trading OT Jason Peters.  They've made their valiant attempt at filling that need - while bringing some much-needed youth to the DE position - in selecting Maybin.

Buffalo's next pick is in the first round, No. 28 overall.  We're hearing that they'll be working the phones to try to move up... so stay tuned.  This is your open thread until the Bills' next pick!

Brian nice way of telling me to not jump to conclusions!

I posted the scout info on the guy on the previous post, will post again if helpful.

I thought Oher was the better pick here (last of the elite tackles), but think Maybin is better than the other DE’s.

I think the most optimistic way to look at this is that they drafted a guy who is functionally a specialist this year. To me that means they think they’re close to being a playoff team and only need a couple pieces.

Scout's Inc. (from Insider) Take on Maybin

Aaron Maybin | DE
Scouts Inc. Grade: 96PICK INFO

Height: 6’3¾"
Weight: 249 lbs
 Overall Rank: 6
Position Rank: 1
 College: PENN STATE
  
Scouts Inc. Player Evaluations

Trait Scale
1 = Exceptional 2 = Above average 3 = Average 4 = Below average 5 = Marginal

Overall Football Traits
Production 2 A third-year sophomore who declared with two years of eligibility remaining. He redshirted in 2006 and played as a backup and on special teams in 2007, when he notched 12 total tackles, including four sacks. Had a breakout season in 2008, when he started all 13 games and recorded 49 tackles, including 19 TFL. He also led the Big Ten with 12 sacks.

Height-Weight-Speed 3 Adequate height for a DE. Has added bulk and appears capable of adding 10-15 more pounds to his frame. Likely to settle in as a rush-LB in the NFL. Is in great physical condition (just four-percent body fat) and displays excellent straight-line speed.

Durability 1 Played in all 25 games during his two seasons of eligibility at PSU. Appears to be a flexible, healthy and durable athlete.

Character 1 Very mature for his young age. Had to grow up in a hurry after mother died from birth complications when Aaron was six years old. He is a natural leader ? both vocally and by example. Non-stop motor is infectious. Great football character. Not aware of any off-the-field issues.

Defensive End specific Traits
Agility/Quickness 1 Exceptionally quick, even for his type of hybrid DE/OLB. Shows excellent agility and closing burst to the quarterback. Possesses top-shelf body control, as well

Strength/Toughness 3 He is lean and must add bulk to frame. Is light in the rear and shows marginal ability to stack at the line of scrimmage when teams run at him. However, don’t mistake small for weak or soft in his case. He is aggressive and feisty. He displays good initial pop and adequate upper-body power. And he certainly does not back down from a one-on-one physical battle.

Instincts 2 A natural playmaker with a knack for jarring the ball loose. Very good snap anticipation and awareness as a pass rusher. Should only continue to improve in this area with more experience.

Pass Rusher 2 Quickest first step of all the edge rushers in the 2009 class. Fluid double moves. Bends the edge tightly. Shows quick hands and strong enough upper body to keep bigger blockers off his pads. Still developing his array of pass rush moves. Gets caught too frequently trying to spin out of double-team attention and needs work in that regard.

Run Stopper 3 Spent a lot of time last season working head-up on the TE as PSU’s strong-side DE. Shows discipline with backside containment. Stays low and fights to keep his positioning. Can stack versus most TE’s but gets washed out too easily by bigger OT’s when they get into his pads.

All the DE’s in this year’s draft had issues, that is why I was high on Oher (although he probably couldn’t start at LT).

I am OK with the pick of Maybin. Coming from Me (pesimist) that is saying it is a pretty good pick.
