He has the right attitude and really good pass rush technique. He’ll make the team!

"bad bodied tweener" ???

He has almost identical height, weight and arm length to Chaisson.

He had 30 sacks in college playing Division I football.

I watched 3 full games. I don't know what is "rough to watch"

"rough to watch" was Chaisson vs Giants new OT Thomas while I was thinking Chaisson was the most likely player to be picked at #17 by the Cowboys.

Lol. Guys always got some authoritative, against the grain opinions to share

Thank god this is gone:

Will "Bradley Anae is still there, got a 3rd round grade on him and a 38 pick difference on the next best guy"
JG "he doesn't fit our system. Gonna have to go with someone else"

This is definitely a case for me where I read the scouting reports and decided he wasn't for me. Then I started looking at some of the videos and to me it is like they aren't the same person. HE has good get off, does beat guys with speed at times but he has very developed pass rushing moves...a lesson to me to look at both sides of evaluations.

Kinda like the eye test that some say doesn’t exist??????

So, you think because a guy is listed as the same height and weight = same body type

That’s fudging moronic.

You find a security gaurd at your local pub that’s 6’3 254 lbs and that doesn’t mean he looks like Chaisson.

I see what you mean, these guys look like twins.

Teams examine personnel. If you're playing two undersized DE's at DT's, teams will call a draw play. Dallas used to do it all the time with Emmitt Smith. Teams would bring in their pass rush package, and Aikman would hand off to Emmitt, who would dash up the middle for a first down.

Wow!!!! Nice steal! I had him in the 3rd round!!! I love Jerry this draft! I hope we round off this great draft with QB McDonald of Hawaii in round 7 if he hasn't been picked yet.

I wanted to trade up for him today

Consensus All American with the last pick in the 5th round?

Works for me.

Some guys are just better football players than athletes. Anae looks like a beast on the field.

Against the grain?

He was the last pick of the 5th round, loool.

Yeah, I’m making it up.

This is a solid pick, I bet he will be the starting DE opposite of Lawrence by end of the season.

Utah has good DL production in the NFL.

I don’t know about starting but he will get reps
Smith intrigues me if he is reinstated
Been out a long time but was a very good player at one time

awesome hands,doesnt have any bend though.

He had enough bend to sprint around the 18th pick of the draft and sack his QB!!!

Measurable are not the only thing that make a football player. Turn on the film.
This guy is a football player!
He’ll make our team and contribute this year.

Could still happen. McCarthy usually drafts a QB.

He fell because he has short arms and ran a slow 40.

Who cares? This guy is a helluva football player.

Thank you very much!
I love the way he throws guys down hard. One reverse in particular. He flipped the guy straight to his back.

Wow, Brugler has a 3rd round grade on him:

COMBINE 6033 257 32 1/8 10 1/8 78 1/8 4.91 2.83 1.69 31 09’07” 4.43 7.44 25

STRENGTHS: Quick take-off to win with his first step…gets on top of blockers quickly, flashing early speed-to-power moves…strong cornering skills, not allowing blockers to push his momentum away from the pocket…works in a club, chop and various power moves mid-rush…aggressive hands with a long-arm technique to get blockers off balance…disciplined run defender, staying home and handling himself well in space…self-described “adrenaline junkie” who competes with a full tank…he rarely came off the field and was an every-down player for the Utes…his leadership and work ethic are “tremendous,” according to Utah head coach Kyle Whittingham…big-time production, setting several school records, including career sacks.

WEAKNESSES: Short-armed rusher…spotty snap anticipation, collecting six offside penalties in 2019…predictable, one-speed rusher and lacks steady variance when attacking the corner…tends to tip his rush moves early, lacking suddenness in his set up…exposes his frame and needs to tighten his timing…finds himself off balance when attempting to shed…gives up too much ground in the run game and needs to plant roots to anchor on the edges…falls apart vs. double-teams…inexperienced dropping into space and covering backs or tight ends.

SUMMARY: A three-year starter at Utah, Anae played left defensive end in defensive coordinator Morgan Scalley’s 4-2-5 base scheme, standing up and rushing with his hand on the ground. He became the school’s all-time leading sack artist (30.0) and set the program records for career sack yardage (210) and tackles for loss yardage (244), winning the 2019 Morris Trophy as the Pac-12’s top defensive lineman (voted on by the conference’s offensive linemen). Anae is quick out of the gate and accelerates around the edge with relaxed hips and physical hands to run the hoop. Against the run, he has strong ball awareness, but can be too easily overwhelmed by size on the edges. Overall, Anae relies too much on his first step and appears near maxed out, but he is a hungry, high-effort pass rusher with the edge quickness that will earn him immediate playing time as an NFL rookie.

GRADE: 3rd Round

What Draft site is this from? Sorry if my post too late.

Maybe he can turn out like Leon Lett
