Seems to be the best player overall in the draft.
My question is does he have character issues? Heart?
Him and Arik side by side would be whoa!
Dude has a crazy motor I beleive he had a couple games where he had 100 snaps
Here's a solid article

I think he's best as a 3-4 DE and his best fit is with the Chargers, Ravens, and us. Other teams just have other needs and here are good players there.
We'd get lucky to get him at 7 not sure it will happen

Ramsey will be a bust. Buckner is the best player in the draft

Buckner. He can stop the run and make your DBs better. Stopping the run and pressuring the QB is the most important task of a defense.

No. JJ Watt as an athlete blows Buckner out of the water. Buckner is a better version of Arik Armstead. It's not really fair to knock a prospect because they won't become the best defensive player in the history of the game though.

Somewhere in between in my opinion (a moderate amount better).
He's a little quicker, has a better motor, has longer arms, and uses his arms better as a pass rusher. Armstead seems a little stronger and a little more explosive. Buckner was the better college player while Armstead was drafted based on potential. Buckner's arm length (34 3/8") and motor give him a higher ceiling in my opinion and his floor is also a lot higher. Armstead's arms aren't long for a guy his size (33" is pretty average).

Well....Wilkerson is an established Pro Bowler and Buckner is just a prospect. My money would be on the guy who has already shown he's better than any 3-4 DE not named Watt.

Buckner. Wilkerson kind of came from nowhere and blew up during the pre-draft process.
