Okay. Yeah I don't know what to make of the pick. From the tape he had against Georgia (on youtube), he doesn't seem to have the speed to chase a back to the sidelines if he's standing up. I didn't see him play coverage either. And his pass rush isn't a strength from what I saw. It's not bad.
I get that he was injured. But I don't know. He definitely plays with good leverage and does a good job playing his position. I just don't see him as a playmaker on the edge, which makes me wonder if they want him playing upfront. Maybe he's a guy that can develop into a playmaker?
He definitely fell in the draft due to playing injured and not attending the combine. Maybe he could have had 10 sacks if he was healthy... Who knows? He was a team captain so that's definitely a positive. As a 5th round pick, I'm not gonna rush to judge this one.
