Haven’t seen this anywhere on CP, so I thought I’d post them. Kollman has a couple of YouTube vids where he goes in depth on each guy. Interesting. Anyway, here are his Tiers:

Kollman’s YouTube assessments are long, extensive and very informative. FYI.

Can Adeyomiwa Adeboware play DE too? He’s athletic enough and he has the arm length.

Tuli Tuipulotu, USC

I like him but I've seen him compared to Karlaftis. How true is that?

I'm not sure, but I do know he was moved all over the defense at USC throughout the year. DE, DT, OLB, and even ILB so I think he's a little more versatile than Karlaftis.

I’ll answer my own question on Adeboware. He’s played on the edge a lot. He’s tough, physical and violent and plays through double teams and to the whistle, often chasing plays downfield. He’s built really thick all over at 280 lbs but his lower half is really powerful with a big butt and thick legs to bull rush or anchor. I’d love him as an edge prospect in spags system. He is short but he can anchor the edge and also has upside with his athleticism to become a better pass rusher with his speed. He’s at his best on stunts where he can just fly and use his speed without having to read or diagnose.

6’2”
282 lbs
33 7/8” arms
4.49 40 (crazy fast)
1.61 ten yard split
37” vert
10’5” broad

This guys a freak. And he plays hard. And he has some interesting fits with being able to slide inside on passing downs. I’d love to pick him in the 2nd, crazy talent and effort player that’s learning.

I'm hoping for Myles Murphy!

I think he's a more athletic version of Karlaftis

I really liked Byron Young (Tenn) highlights.

Someone sell me on Keion White, I'm not seeing it with him

I talked with Jared from Subway and he agrees that Keion is too old. Pass

He's right about Van Ness imo. Feels like there's a correction happening after all the (mad) top 20 talk. I just don't get that guy.

Also glad that Karl Brooks has once again fallen off people's radar for the opposite reason, would love to get him in the 4th or 5th. Won't make an impact early but there's a lot to work with.

I've been listening to various podcasts and I am getting more and more certain the Chiefs don't take a DE in the 1st round, and maybe not even in the 2nd.

The Chiefs probably consider themselves to have starting DEs locked up for the next 2 years in Karlaftis and Omenihu, I can't see them taking a DE in the 1st round that they don't see a path to "starter" for until 3 years time, and I don't think the talent is right at the back end of the round either for what the Chiefs would want.

I see DE as more of a 3rd or 4th round, rotational guy who can develop situation.

You may be right. Carter would be a nice project at the end of the third.

Agreed!
