Depends on workouts/combine/etc. I suspect he will end up in the last first to early second range.

I suspect his numbers won’t jump off athletically but he’s a damn good football player

IDK. I would say his his floor is higher than almost anyone mocked ahead of him. Most of the guys mocked in the top 15-20 as DE/EDGE guys have astronomical bust factors, IMO.

This so much. Gotta stop drafting potential based on athleticism. Need an edge that will be consistently tough against the run and consistently pressure the QB. Rather have that guy than a 14 sack guy that disappears for 9/10 of every game. Need football players. Not crossfit champions.

I like Gillote. Isn't he going to be at the Senior Bowl?

Yeah I believe so.

I like a few things about his game:

-Great run defender, good awareness to break off engagement and quickly move laterally.  His twitch and quickness is legit.

-Moveset: has a nice swim, power rush (against guards and tackles).  Good bend but he just thrives in the trenches. His power seems to be a top strength which I like for us.

-Good size and provides versatility.  He's 6'3 275, and a quick dude.  Evero tends to flex in guys like Clowney in nickel packages which we could do with someone like Gillote.  

-Combining the high motor, strength, size, quickness, he easily has 3-down ability. 

Overall, he's the type that will get a us pushing OLs backwards quicker.  Need that type of EDGE who isn't afraid to go at it in the trenches.

    • One of his handful of good games... If he can ever get to a consistently high level, then he'd change minds. As it is... Meh.
    • People are also jumping to the conclusion that Darnold would have figured it out here. I very much disagree. He needed a place where he could be a backup for a while with no pressure. So all the pining over him was pointless. Highly unlikely he would do anything but continue to fail had he stayed here. The one that got away was Baker. He was not as bad as he seemed here. He was always a good player but we were a two bit, middle of the road college program grasping at straws. Had we invested the time in Baker that we have done for Bryce, history would have been quite a bit different. To what end, who knows? Doesn't matter. There are a million hindsight stories that are very unkind to this franchise. There is no one that is more significant than the other. It is what it is.
    • He’s a serviceable starter for us that doesn’t cost much. The reason he doesn’t cost much is that he has flaws, one of which appears to be catching the ball.  It would be good to have a better corner opposite JC but he’s not at the top of the list when it comes to people we need to upgrade.
