But he's the only DE/edge guy I'd grab early in the draft. Otherwise get me a CB/OL/LB/WR

You wish he would have tested better, because even watching his gameplay he does not scream “explosive athlete”.
But what I cannot ignore is how damn good he is at block shedding. He has such quick shed/escape moves and he is really efficient running the proper track in pursuit/chase. He’s got a great long arm and stab technique and he times plays on the qb’s throwing arm with precision. He sets the edge well in the run game and patiently anchors when needed. I hope this can carry over to the next level, because his athleticism is pedestrian. If Veach ends up taking him, I’m on board.
