Since this team made peace with drafting guys who have retired........Key would make for one hell of an edge rusher. Key is up there with Myles Garrett in the freak pass rusher category. Had 11 sacks this past season. While he doesn't have the size of Garrett, weighing in around 235 pounds, he has pure explosiveness with speed and a lightning quick first step off the ball.

Key, sweat, hubbard...who are the less obvious players to keep an eye on?
To be on topic, he's a beast. If he can put on like 20 more lbs, he can transform a defense...hopefully ours

Was going to make a thread on this guy. He reminds me of Danielle Hunter in college, but thinner. He's electric and still so raw.

Harold Landry is certainly worth keeping an eye out for.

What a disappointing year he's having. Lots of talent but who knows what is going on between the ears of this guy.

Of course every year we have a high pick there are no elite prospects.

He looked motivated this week at Alabama and played hard.

I read an article stating that this dude loves football and is a hard worker. Hopefully that means good between the ears

TBF Key started rough. Since losing 20 pounds and getting healthier, he has looked a lot better the last three games and closer to his 2016 self.

He is looking better now. Lets hope he finishes the season strong and has a good draft process cause he is up there with garrett when it comes to freak athleticism and natural talent.

Yo Phoenix, what's this retirement stuff you mentioned? I'm unaware of it. 
This team needs more guys who eat, sleep and breathe football. I bet Kyle regrets drafting Joe Williams deep down inside. The local media noted how the demonstrated no urgency during camp and lollygagged on the field. The coaches had to get on his ass consistently. We need to steer clear from dudes who half one foot out the door.

Totally forgot about Joe. I wonder how he is coming along?

This is who I want! We got our franchise qb now get our franchise pass rusher (elephant!) We could trade down and pick up an extra 1st pick and a 2nd too.. I'm thinking he goes 8-13 right now.
