Very small for a DT. Like I said, I'll defer final judgement till I see him play.

 

 

His job is going to be to penetrate and live in the backfield and not eat up blockers so others can make plays.

Well, if you read the original post, you'd see why I cared

I was partial to Josh Allen too. Incredibly high ceiling. I figured Jax would make the smart pick. 

 

OTOH I was glad Hock was off the board. Didn't want the temptation to  stray away from Ed who I think is just as safe and high caliber as Josh Allen.

James Harrison?

 

Was going to say Levon Kirkland.

 

 

I love the Oliver pick...but I think the naysayers will say he weighed 287 at the combine loaded up on fluids and likely plays closer to 275 (still MUCH bigger than a modern LB).
