Getting a freak athlete EDGE who graded very well both as a pass rusher and run stopper and who has connections with our new staff trumps getting a WR4 (I don't really care about the Ash connection I would want Ossai either way). Levi wasn't under consideration he's not even close to BAP for me right now. I like McNeil, Nixon, and Milton Williams more than Levi. You should be asking this in the draft discussion thread btw.

So at what point is Jaelen Phillips worth the risk to you?  Where does Joe Tryon fit in terms of round projection to you?

Phillips went 10th in this draft so it's moot, but I would have taken him at 25 I think. I think he is EDGE1 in this class talent wise, I'm just not sure how his red flags will rub Meyer the wrong way or not.

Like I said I haven't watched Tryon so he's a tough one for me, but he appears to be in the same tier as Ossai. My worry with him is his 7.18 3 cone is significantly higher than you want. Sub 7 flat 3 cone for EDGE and sub 4.7 SS for OTs are two of the most strict thresholds for me. Now, Ossai didn't run a 3 cone so perhaps he should be dinged for it, but the rest of his workout and his explosion were off the charts so I think his agility would be too.
