I really like this pick, can really collapse a pocket, stop the run, and disciplined.

love it! knocks against him were that he would burn himself out and was inconsistent. sounds like the perfect rotational guy who will give it his all when he is in

Conditioning will be key, but he's in the perfect system for being on the field on 1st and/or 2nd downs, and rotating with Mitchell and Dial at NT. Developmental guy that could be Mitchell's successor in 2-3 years.

Nice nose tackle pick, I've seen mocks where he was going as high as the late 3rd round. Rotational lineman with a solid motor and athleticism who excels against the run and will hold his own against double teams.

I give this pick an A just because he'll kick Purcell's ass off the roster.

Love having my Polynesian brothers on the team but we got DeFo and Tongan Pita Taumoepenu now! Purcell had his chance.
