He’s playing so well as an UDFA rookie at a position where guys just simply don’t usually play that well until year 2 or 3.
His upside is extremely high for a guy that’s just a rotational player right now. Him and Jones as our interior pass rushers is going to be unfair for the next few years. [Reply]
I've thought about this... it's unreal, actually. I can't think of an UDFA at an interior position from a school like Rolla that has made the jump like this kid. I mean he has tremendous potential. [Reply]
Allows us to let KPass walk after the season. Never going to be able to pay him what he will demand on the market anyway. Hopefully we will get a nice comp pick out of the deal. [Reply]

I know it’s PFF, but holy shit!
It’s really not all that surprising though when you think about it. Like I said, that’s a position where guys usually don’t play this well in year 1. [Reply]
His size probably prevents him from being starting material, but with a DC like Spags, I see him getting used a LOT in key situations because he's so good and slicing through shit down the middle like a knife.
Think Wallace Gilberry but with a lot more athletic potential. [Reply]

Technically he will probably never be a starter for us, but nowadays when you’re playing in subs for the majority of the game, he’s going to get a ton of snaps.
Him and Jones are a lot to deal with on passing downs. [Reply]
We had a phenomenal draft/UDFA from what I can tell- CEH, Danna, Sneed, Wharton and Gay. Plus we have Niang which could possibly give us some OL help next year. [Reply]
