I think it’s a bit early to confine him to a certain stereotype. Danielle Hunter seems to be doing just fine playing end in a 4-3. I do agree that he’s likely a 3-4 edge guy.

That’s valid. BJ doesn’t strike me as a player that’s going to put the weight on to play 4-3 DE though. Hunter wasn’t that far off, but I can’t argue that projections are only educated guesses. I will say BJ went to a 3-4 team.

Ironically Hunter was the comp I was just thinking of for Foskey. Hopefully sans injuries.

I tuned in late. Damn.

Ok, we’re definitely getting younger on the D line. Cam can’t do it forever.

Welcome to NOLA Mr. Foskey !

Double down on D-line

Tide safety Branch has to be wondering WTF. As am I. But frankly looking at the depth chart we don't have room for another safety.

Lions getting another good pick

Doesn't look to happy about it though

Branch finally off the board.

Good for him but he looks flabbergasted 😲!

Love his instincts on the field.

The Pats pick DE White looks like a pretty bad attitude after being picked. Glad we dodged that ass.
