I expect him to be on the board through the late 2nd round. Matt Miller has him as the 20th edge prospect, McGinn has him 13th, don't believe Mayock has him in the top 10 either. Lack of size and less than stellar athleticism will drop him down.

I completely agree, however if you watch his combine he false stepped on the 40, had a great vertical, and decent broad jump.

It's on film where he jumps out, his get off and burst are 2nd only to Landry (and it's very close). I see a guy that if he improves his balance is going to give Tackles fits.

Not sure if he retested at his Pro Day to improve his combine work, but he ended up a 85.5 percentile SPARQ score, right under Landry at 87 percent. He is also longer than Landry and has larger wingspan. Doesn't match Landry's 40 time or 10 yard split

Players considered undersized always fall in the draft. Especially edge rushers

Fair point but this year edge is a little shallow, I have guys like Key (off field issues) and Sweat (injuries) falling. Okoronkwo and Turay could see a boost in IMO.

Yea I'm not saying I have obo rated that low. I like him a lot. Just saying I could see him falling to the third.

Well if he's there we need to draft him even if we took Landry. We desperately need an outside rush and doubling up wouldn't be the worst thing. I just highly doubt it he's there. I don't think I could even name 10 edge rushers in this class let alone having him down at 20. That's insane.

I'm on record banging the drum for this kid. Number 23 overall. Just destroyed too many quality teams last year to ignore. The only guy to even give Isaiah Wynn a challenge. Aced the Senior Bowl week. His measurables are almost identical to Yannick Ngakoue, and I am guessing the league would like a do-over for him. I love the kid.

In my personal draft, based upon my board I think it will play out like this:
1. Roquan Smith- 9
2. Anthony Miller-59
3- Okoronkwo- 70

(1 | 9) - Harold Landry, Elephant/ER
(2 | 59) - Carlton Davis, OCB
(3 | 70) - Ogbonnia Okoronkwo, SAM/ER
