He spent two seasons at ULM before he decided to transfer to TCU. Banogu was a two-year starter as an edge rusher for Gary Patterson’s defense. He produced 24.5 tackles-for-loss, 17 sacks, and two forced fumbles during his two years in Fort Worth. Banogu is a world class athlete. He was a track athlete in high school, but Banogu showcased his athleticism at the Combine. He posted a 1.9 sigma SPARQ, which landed in the 97.3rd percentile. This was the best score among all edge rushers. Film reviewBanogu has enormous upside, but he currently possesses questionable technique. He isn’t projected to go high according to many outlets Stitched Fozzy Whittaker Jersey , so it could help his outlook if he refines his technique because the athleticism can’t be denied. Banogu has a diverse set of pass rush moves, but he enjoys setting up the offensive tackle with a slight hesitation before exploding. His hand usage is inconsistent, but he does well to swat the hands away. Banogu’s athleticisim is on display here. He uses a swat and arm over pass rush, but check out his balance as the offensive tackle attempts to block him. He shows fantastic balance to force a hit on the quarterback, which leads to an inaccurate throw.Banogu’s athleticism allowed him to take his rushes inside where he can beat slower guards or catch tackles off balance. He shows a decent dip, nimble footwork Youth Daryl Williams Jersey , and then a strong burst to get into the backfield. TCU frequently used stunts to clear a lane for Banogu through the interior. He’s quick enough to cover the ground and affect the quarterback before he releases it. While Banogu did showcase his athleticism at the Combine, it didn’t translate with his speed rushes. On both of these rushes, he doesn’t use a dip to condense the surface area between him and the quarterback. It’s not like he can’t do it, but there are some technical areas that he has to improve upon to harness this rush. He has to take less steps and then his feet have to point toward the quarterback so his rush can flow directionally. Banogu tested above average in the agility drills. It would be more concerning if he didn’t, but due to his high level traits he should project to improve in this area.Banogu creates havoc on run downs by taking an inside path to the backfield. He’s not easy to block when he’s against interior linemen. Despite not using the proper leverage, his speed and hands are too strong for the blockers.Banogu takes another inside route to the backfield on this run. It’s similar to how he wins as a pass rusher on inside moves. He doesn’t use great leverage Stitched Daryl Williams Jersey , but he does enough to dip and then use his speed to close down.On runs where he’s being read by the offense or pulls, Banogu shows patience and elusiveness. He avoids the pulling block, but then explodes into the backfield for the tackle-for-loss.Fit with CarolinaBanogu is not scheme dependent. He could line up in a 2-or-3-point stance for the Panthers. He has to improve his pass rush arsenal, but he has the hand use to do so. Furthermore, his athleticism is a clear signal that he can develop his speed rush. He is okay at setting the edge, but his football intelligence and quickness allows him to shoot gaps in the run game. The Panthers need more edge rushers and Banogu would be a start in improving this unit. Carolina should consider him as early as their second rounder.Panthers place CB Ross Cockrell on IR; sign OT Adam Bisnowaty According to multiple reports the Carolina Panthers made some roster moves this afternoon when they placed cornerback Ross Cockrell on injured reserve and picked up offensive tackle Adam Bisnowaty Youth Michael Palardy Jersey , who was waived by the Lions yesterday. Bisnowaty is a former sixth round pick of the New York Giants (2017).The Panthers’ decision to pick up Bisnowaty is likely two-fold. First, Ron Rivera likes to bring in multiple ‘diamonds in the rough’ during training camp to see if he can find anything worth adding to the 53-man roster. Second, with the injury to Daryl Williams a few days ago, the Panthers probably wanted to add an extra body to the offensive line for running drills during practice. Bisnowaty checks off both of those boxes, so here we are.I wouldn’t expect Bisnowaty to make the final roster, but stranger things have happened in the NFL. At the very least Stitched Michael Palardy Jersey , he’ll give some of the guys who will make the roster a few breaks during drills for the next few weeks. Stay tuned for any future developments or changes to the roster.
