I can already imagine the complaints if he plays at SAM

Haha. Right? I'm down with having a great pass rusher who can do other things well too. :)
I went back to watch Allen's tape from '17/'16, and holy s**t, this dude put on some serious size since then lol. He looked like Brian Burns not too long ago.

He was tiny. Dude has put some serious effort in the weight room.
Hell yeah

That's awesome. More top guys going here can answer a lot of questions.

There is a good chance we'll be coaching here which would be a real plus.

Starting to get hyped as a top 5 pick now. I like it. Appears to be worth it.

I love it. He is definitely shaping up to be my draft crush this year.

He went all Eli Harold and hulked up to almost 260. Still has speed, although agility may be the area that suffers more with all that bulk.

Nice to see. Going to have to check this kid out a little bit more. Looks like he would be a nice fit on this defense if we could get another ER in FA
Getting him and Jachai Polite would be the dream.

Honestly I don't think we need to draft two edge rushers with our top two picks. They should sign a vet and draft someone. I'm hoping for Brandon graham and a nickel edge rusher.

They need help all over the place besides just edge (S, WR, CB, TE2)

This is true.

Which is annoying when watching because he should be getting after the QB on every opportunity.
I'm with you here. As much as I respect Allen for being a great football player, I think at this point I want a pure edge rusher. I like Polite's bend more. I may even like Sweat more. Allen will be a force in the NFL, but I'm so hard up for a pure pass rusher, give me the one trick pony.
