40 times are not very useful when assessing DE/OLB types.

I'm pretty sure you are going to see what I'm saying once the games start.

Short shuttle and three cone drills are some of the most important metrics and he is right up there with some elite company. I've watched as much of this kid on youtube as I could find and even picked him in the CP mock draft before the Chiefs picked him. I was stoked to see us pick him because he is a total sleeper. He was dominant in the Ivy League and has the physical skillset to succeed at the next level. By all accounts he is a smart, hard-working dude. I see all that adding up to success. I am not saying his is a top ten guy, but I definitely had him at a mid-round value prior to the draft with the physical talent comparable to Ziggy Ansah and MORE production.
