craig Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 Kingsley, that's the name for 5th rounders! Mixed inputs here. Some showing stats that he's been an effective SEC pressure guy, even though he lacks RAS. Other's saying that he's got some set-the-edge capacity. Not sure if he'll have either in the NFL. But sometimes we focus on pressure from edges; I think sometimes for a 3-4-5 edge guy, if he could at least be functional at setting the edge that might be an acceptable function? Strange for Gute to drift from his pure-RAS ways, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The non-sack pressure numbers are there. The Combine numbers and sack totals are not. He's gonna kick around the league for a while, but he's really not someone I'm banking on becoming one of our starting EDGE guys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toddfather Posted May 1, 2022 Share Posted May 1, 2022 They will bring someone in like a Melvin Ingram. Gutey does not fear veteran additions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
persiandud Posted May 1, 2022 Share Posted May 1, 2022 This was one of the best value selections in the entire draft. Was getting 1st round buzz at one point 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sandy Posted May 1, 2022 Share Posted May 1, 2022 Not sure if it's been mentioned, but he was a stud special teamer as a freshman, blocking a PAT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gopackgo972 Posted May 1, 2022 Share Posted May 1, 2022 So we have 2 EDGE going into the season ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interior pressure is the new EDGE rush and we just added one next to Clark. I mean really how many great EDGE rushers did the Patriots have when they won like a billion Super Bowls? Coverage is more important for when that pass rush doesn’t get home, and we have that. We have more than we need at EDGE in my opinion. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don’t strike gold in the 5th round at EDGE. There’s something wrong with him. Gold is tough this late, but not impossible. Z was what a 4th rounder?

It’s possible he has a great two year stretch like Z did at some point in his career. Not possible he does that in year one, two or three. If there’s 4 examples in NFL history of a 5th-7th round EDGE making an impact as a rookie, I will eat my hat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
