Upshaw could end up 295 and a perfect 3-4 DE. He certainly has the motor and plays with legit hunger to inflict damage.
You could also use him easily as a 4-3 SDE.
I do believe he is a fit here for us.
But athletically he is probably a 25th area player. Do we rate his intangibles high enough to grab him at 14? I'd guess not quite but could target him after a trade down provided Cox or other targets have been selected before 14.
I'd rate Upshaw 3rd at 3-4 DE. Behind Cox and Brockers. Less upside than either but a fairly safe pick.
