Is Robert Quinn according to Mayock. Paraphrasing he said on tape Quinn is the most dominant edge rusher he's seen.

Question, with our reported interest in Bowers and this information does taking DE become more of a possibility assuming our Scouts and FO agree.

I thought Bowers was the consensus top DE, but I really respect Mayock and his opinion.

Quinn is a better edge rusher. Everette Brown is a better edge rusher than Bowers. Only difference is Bowers can do all the other things as well. He doesn't have to just rely on one trick to get to a QB. He can move bodies.

Quinn can pretty much do it all. Bowers might be slightly stronger against the run but not by a large margin.

Quinn was a guy, that if he could have played this year, could of been a lock for the #1 draft spot since Luck decided to stay in school. Since he has been out for a full season it will be interesting to see what he has done with himself in the time off.

Physically, he was a specimen. His motor was non-stop and was not the kind of guy you matched up one on one with anyone on throwing downs.

If Quinn was able to add 10-15 pounds and not lose any of the speed and quickness, it could get even more interesting at the top.

I don't know that you could use the #1 overall on a guy who hasn't played for a year. Quinn showing up at the combine and blowing people away will honestly only hurt us. If there are percieved to be two elite pass-rushers in this draft then teams that would have moved up for Bowers will sit and wait for Quinn.

      I wanted someone to hire him so we got the picks, but I'm also not upset that he'll now be back. I genuinely don't understand why so many fans on here dislike him so much.  No, he's not perfect and made some mistakes this year, especially at the end of the playoff game and going so soft in coverage on the final drive. But considering this place torched him all offseason for us having the "worst defense in NFL history" last year.  Said in the whole pre-draft process how we had to go defense in round 1 because of it and then complained the rest of the offseason that we didn't do enough to improve the defensive roster. How do people say all that about the defense and then complain when he turned that same unit into a pretty respectable defense this year.  They were really the only reason we were in a lot of games for most of the season, as the middle part of the season they really stepped up and were playing like one of the better defenses in the league. I don't see any reason we can't improve even more next year if we spend another offseason focusing on adding pieces on that side of the ball, which we should be able to do with our draft picks and cap space.

      And they are perfect during the month of February! The fact they're 11th in the league now, but best in the league since Dec 6 tells you everything you need to know.
