In one of the interviews I saw, he said he learned it from Maxx Crosby film, thinking he could add it to his bag, and that it was new for 2022.
I'm a little surprised he wasn't considered a higher pick by draft analysts. I admit I did no work on edge rushers. But he's got the athleticism. He has every measurable you would want except weight, but the weight doesn't matter as much in every scheme. He's versatile. Yes, he's older, but he broke out when he was young, and he's still relatively new to football, so he might have more upside than his age would indicate. And he's very productive, and you can clearly attribute his usage as to why his production dipped as a 5th-year.
Age had a lot to do with the draft community's evaluation of him, I think. He's weight is also concerning. Saleh thinks he can pack on pounds with professional nutrition/workout plan in place now. 245-250 is reasonable for him.
He went around where most pass rushers in his range typically go. Irvin, Burns, Phillips - really good prospects that went in the teens.
Everyone understands why Will Anderson went #3.
Tyree Wilson is a H/W/S prospect that never really had elite production. McDonald outperformed him in the same conference. Wilson also isn't a young prospect. He'll be 23 when the season starts.
Van Ness seems like the ideal fit in Saleh's scheme, but we already have Mike Clemons and JFM to play that heavy end role. It sounds to me like Saleh really want that true, bendy speed rusher in his unit.
