Right now I can see teams listing him as an OLB in the 3-4 but I think he could put some weight on and play DE in our scheme. Chiefs have spent time with him and Spags used to coach his brother.

Highest pressure rate since 2018 (@PFF)

1. Julian Okwara, Notre Dame - 19.1%

Wish he were better against the run, but I love his upside as a pass rusher.

Him and Weaver are the only 2nd round edge rushers that really excite me.

Probably a little too light as you said. He’ll be gone in the 2nd as an OLB. Doesn’t seem like we have a good shot.

I think Garvin from Miami and Greenard from Florida seem like great fits for Spags.

Staylor would know more about these Florida guys than I would
