I was saying in the other thread - he plays with urgency and meanness (but clean).

I don’t know a lot about this player, but definitely think we can’t go wrong adding to the front of our defense.

I am good with this pick. Of course the DB and WR whore in me, REALLY wanted Troy Franklin or TJ Tampa but we really need to add an EDGE. EDGE was what I was expecting in Round 3 as it really tails off after Round 3.

Ellis is very consistent and IMO a safe pick here. He is pretty similar to what we have but you can never have enough good pass rushers. Hard to find an elite pass rusher after Round 1 but I think this is a pretty safe/consistent bet here.

Not a bad pick as we need Edge help, but he is a clone of what we already have in Cooper, Bonito, Browning which is a bit confusing.

You can never have enough of those guys.

Keep them fresh and in case of injuries.

He got a high number of sacks without a ton of pressures, but he also played hurt a lot this year.

I think he was underrated because of the injury, probably a top 50 talent.

If FO went into a 31 flavors Ice Cream shop they'd pick vanilla. Why are our drafts still look like Elway style . I know he's not there but, his ghost must be. Give me a RB today. Give me an Iowa P today too.

Is there any OT DT that would be worthy of a flier today?

Texas OT Christian Jones.

Oregon DT Brandon Dorlus.

Clemson RB Will Shipley is still avail. Somebody (not you) mentioned RB. Or Ray Davis from Kentucky. Not to mention Vols RB Jaylen Wright.

One of the things I look for on LBs - Edge guys and DBs - is their 3-cone time. The 3-cone drill shows you how well an athlete can change direction during a play. Under 7 seconds is elite. Jonah Elliss' 3-cone score was 6.69. I don't recall anyone with a better 3-cone time. Troy Franklin is a 6.9 flat time - which is pretty good but crushed by Elliss' time. Josey Jewell had a 6.8 3-cone time.

Ellis looks good on YouTube. I'll give him the benefit of the doubt. The success on this draft hinges on Nix, regardless who gets drafted later.
