He's an edge defender from the Texans. 27 years old. Played for the Rams as an OLB in Wade Phillips' 3-4 and as an end in Love Smith's Tampa 2.
Had 5 sacks last year with the Texans. 4th highest pass-rush win rate in the NFL. Started 8 games.
Sounds like what we do. Not a huge name, but still an effective player.
I'd be mildly surprised if they invested more int he already well-paid DL, but we'll see.
Heck yeah, should be more in our price range than Ngakoue as well who I heard we are interested in.
Okoronkwo can stop the run too, I liked this guy in college and was hoping we had a chance to draft him.
