  • Can kick-out or cave-in the edge defender.
  • Ability to slide laterally and capture play-side edge on wide run.
  • Adequate quickness out of stance and into pass set.
  • Flexion in hips and ankles helps establish his anchor.
  • Could see vaulted success rate with improved hand usage.
  • Reactive athleticism aids recovery talent in pass pro.
Weaknesses
  • Overall play is raw and undisciplined.
  • Pass protection technique needs overhaul.
  • Fails to maintain a grounded, balanced base.
  • Hands swing way out wide and rarely catch rusher's frame.

Ok so I don't like the pick, but if he brings some meanness and it rubs off a bit, could be a good thing. If he improves on par with Steele? Well that would be something,

I'd be happy with this. We could use some nastiness there. I just have a bad feeling about this pick.

Yes LVE fell off after injuries....You cant predict that. CeeDee does have to many drops but hes good. Every 1st rounder is not going to be a homerun.
Absolutely. But let's not pretend we're the Ravens drafting. We're 50/50 like every other average team. And since we refuse to use FA to improve, that's why we're a 15-18 team.
