    When his class was signed, I felt Tryon was the most underrated by far. His film was incredible in that he was both huge and had that rare last step burst to close on runners, and I just didn't get the low rating and having nothing better than UW or the Coug. 2019 was a bit of a bizzarro season for me, as everything that made sense on paper didn't show up on the field, causing things to go to total shit. One of those things was that you'd expect Tryon to pick up the 2019 season where he left off in 2018. It took him well into the 2018 season to figure things out, but he had all the look of a near-future all-conference player by the end of that season.

    Instead, "what the hell happened to Tryon?" was one of the biggest mysteries to me through the first half or so of 2019. By the end of the season, he was right back to looking like he was at the end of 2018. For the second offseason in a row, he was one of the guys I most expected to dominate once play resumed, so it's sad from a UW standpoint that he's leaving. That being said, I had already mentally prepared myself for another letdown, as fool me twice... well, you can't fool me again.

    He has every tool to be a high caliber NFL player, and I wish him luck, I just still can't explain his early-2019 performance.

    He was always leaving after this season

    There is no season

    Not hard to see what happened

    A sign of everyone's apathy right now, a couch sale like this a year ago would be probably 10 pages deep by now.

    He won’t get drafted

    Who the fuck knows. The 2021 draft is going to be a blind auction.
    Yep this. I guess it will just make the underwear olympics that much more important to the scouts. Thats the hard part to predict though. UW fans assume Tryon will kill it there, but there are no guarantees. Ahmed was expected to do well there too.

    My guess is rounds 3-5.

    Tyron is elite as some like to say

    He’s going to go in the first three rounds.

    He's an elite prospect. It would be dumb to deny that. The problem is he hasn't gotten past the prospect label and been an elite player yet. He really needed this season..

    Right now he has some bad game film, some good game film, a handful of good highlights, and looks impressive. He's a roll of the dice for an NFL team.

    Wonder if how weak the edge rusher class is for this draft is helped push him out.
  • whlinderwhlinder Member Posts: 4,739 Standard Supporter
    ESPN (flagged for watching ESPN) says he’s the #40 overall prospect (McShay).

    Seems like the right decision. Another year of football may have gotten him to the first round but no football to play cause fuck our conference.

    What's your favorite Joe Tryon moment? His screw ups are memorable than good plays. #BearsWiin

    Buccaneers select Washington LB Joe Tryon to close out Day 1 of 2021 draft

    I always said that if Jaelan Phillips with his 2 concussions in college, medical retirement, comes back to Miami and now gets drafted mid-1st round ... it's a weak draft and/or pass rushing is an amplified need in today's NFL.

    Joe Tryon, Buccaneers 1st round pick.

    Some prognosticators got this pick nailed.
