Also those TE are tempting to pull the trigger on. FA will dictate alot before the draft. I want to see us make a real attempt to get that MLB from Carolina, I think he could be better than Robertson.

I haven't seen him play so my question to you is; is he a nose tackle or a 1-tech? There is quite the difference here in what the need is between a 4-3 1-tech and a 3-4 NT.

I got to do a little more digging but so far from reading he can man the nose and 3 tech. He's pretty big.

It really depends on what site you go to some saying a 3-4 space eater other comparing him to A'Shawn Johnson and Jarred Reed 4-3. They do say he is a force to deal with. My bad news is 2 sights saying he's returning to Washington for this season. My opionion he would be a great fit.

Either for Vita Vea

" He is a big boy with exceptional quickness and power stuck in a phone booth"

He holds his ground while eating up double teams all game long and when you screw up and try to block him with a single blocker he will make you pay the price

I really like this kids upside
