Best first step in this year's draft class IMO. He makes it really difficult for tackles to get their hands on him.
I think he belongs in the 2nd round, but I don't think it will be to us.
Personally, I love the guy, but he projects better as as OLB in a 3-4 scheme than he does a 4-3 DE. I believe he's gonna be a steal for some team. Right now, I have him going in round 3 to Green Bay. I have a very similar grade on Jordan Willis as well, but I'm a little higher on Willis. Both are gonna be very good players. They both dominated the OT's at the Senior Bowl.
Maybe he could be this year's Ngakoue

I see him as a similar player to ngakoue. I'm not super high on Willis though not very explosive or athletic but he's very strong and wins with effort.

I could definitely see him being that guy
According to Derek Rivers we are one of the teams that has shown the most interest in him.
Could well end up being this years Yannick in the 3rd again.
Rivers is going to be way more athletic than Yannick.

If that is true he should not be available at #68, approximately where Yannick was selected last year.
