Despite his inexperience, Valles (6-foot-5, 240 pounds) is an interesting prospect because of his pass-rushing ability. He had 13 sacks and 18 tackles for loss in two seasons for the Cavaliers; almost 25 percent of his college tackles were tackles for loss(18 of 78, or 23 percent). This season, Valles led Virginia with nine sacks and also had 12.5 tackles for loss, an interception, a fumble recovery, three forced fumbles and four quarterback hurries.

Valles has been productive because of his first-step quickness and sheer speed; he needs a lot of refinement as a pass rusher and must become a more well-rounded player, but he definitely has an upside

nice sized kid - I know he is stick right know but a project

Valles was the best player on a defense that included Ant Harris and Eli Harold. He needs some technique work, but he's a redshirt sophomore with good football smarts and ALL the physical tools. He is a plus athlete who I expect to blow up at the combine and probably get drafted by a 3-4 team in the second round.
