Wow looks to have tremendous explosion at the point of attack. Could to next coming of edge  rusher DE to supplement the Jeffs. Great looking prospect!

Read a draft profile and he kind of sounds like the same kind of player as Philip Hunt was.  Or at least the potential to play the same kind of role...

From what I've read he's more of a rotational end ,,decent against the pass but has issues with run stopping. His main asset is getting off the line quickly but isn't going to strong arm many.

40 seconds of highlight film isn't much, at this point just expecting him to show up at TC, everything beyond is "we'll see".  Hope they bring in many more newcomers, looking forward reinforcing the D-line is the biggest priority at this time IMO.

This is a good start. I would think there will be a number of DL signed before TC.

I hope that we end up with a great barber shop quartet of signed DL... Wink

Any place to get his measureables?  6'2 seems a bit small for a DE in our scheme, unless he has some wingspan.
