Broken Arrow, Broken Arrow!

I think he'll be PS this year as the shortened TC and OTAs will limit receivers. I think that will also prevent other teams from plucking him off the PS. After a year of NFL strength training and coaching up he'll be a factor in 2021.

That's my first thought as well. He's Phil Hansen size (Like was 6'5" 278) and while not the same game, likely will have similar results. Set the edge, great run defender, reliable and about 6 - 7 sacks a year. Phil's on the Wall of Fame, so I hope AJ can have a similar career from a 4-3 front. I think kicking AJ inside on passing downs will be effective.

This was a solid draft that filled in most of the blanks it needed to fill. We're just not used to having a solid roster to start with!

He was far more disruptive than Star before going down. Proof was in reps, he was on the field more than Star. He's definitely in the mix and if health, will start.

And here I am agreeing with you. Unless he makes a huge leap in year 2, he's the weakest link in the line. He should have to compete.

Good take. I'm warming to this pick mere and more.

Even beyond if they heard if the guy?

That guy was a trip. Just putting his hands up he could touch the bottom of the goal post practically.

Yes says Cole Beasley.

That's what TC is for. We'll see.

Well Beane thinks he has the requisite requirement. Accurate and a winner looks good to me.

Based on what? He played at a high level and is a 66% completion Pct passer. Let's let him compete before declaring him PUP in the NFL for Chrissake.

If Epenesa = Phil Hanson I'm a happy guy. He's a Bill now so I'm on board.

Seems to me we needed to address edge this year. It also seems to me we need to address it again next year. This is not going to be your edge rusher. A solid DE but not a rusher.

Sorry, I just feel like we drafted Chris Kelsay.

I have, and at the NFL level I'm telling you hes not going to be a speed rusher. Hes going to be a hand fight artist and a bull rusher. Solid DE but that's it.

Find me one draft preview that says that this guy is going to be a good speed rusher or sack artist and it'll be the 1st . Hes gonna be a good solid DE but he is not an exciting edge rusher.

You need speed at this level. The guy just doesn't have that. He's gonna be a good solid DE but I'm sorry I'm just underwhelmed. I think there could have been some players that would have added more impact this year that's all.

Sorry I would have rather of kept Shaq and taken chance on somebody who can it really help us more this year or develop into a great pass rusher.

I can't help it be underwhelmed. This guy is not going to be the sack master and pressure the quarterback guy we need. Seems like he's Shaq Lawson 2.0.

Some good points back and forth in this thread. At day's end, gotta trust that Beane knows what he's doing.

I'm fine with it.

Well as a former journalist I am telling you it's not. It's lazy and made to create controversy. All he did was interview the naysayers. No where did he try to get another point of view or talk with other employees who feel otherwise. Nor did be seek out business analyst who would comment on all of this from a business point of view. Then he just went after her Kim Pegula with a negative slant that couldn't help but put her on the defensive. It was unbalanced and lazy. I am not concerned about the substance as there was little if it. Everyone is going through some tumult now.

Hey Yannick, sometimes you have to ask yourself "what could go wrong?" And then put your damn phone down!
