If he can set the edge in defense, I love it.

Close performance comparison to George Karlaftis. Almost the same size/weight comparison but YGM is a slightly better run defender. Upgrade from Ferrell in run defense as well.
Feel like a nice Toyota instead of a Lexus. Much better than your old Ford.

You could get a Subway sandwich for about the same money as Chase Young with equal production or slightly better with the sandwich.

Solid rotational piece to grab a few snaps here and there.

he can set the edge against the run very well, he has a lot of length kind of like Aldon Smith. One thing I noticed is he is pretty damn powerful. He was pushing back a lot of tackles, and he does give a lot of effort.

Definitely the base down DE to replace Ferrell. Big enough to set the edge with the added bonus of being a decent pass rusher.
