Chaisson is just 20, his body is still growing. In comparison, Danielle Hunter was 6'5 252 lbs (Chaisson is 6'3 254) coming out of LSU himself, that worked out just fine with proper coaching.Originally posted by Nastastical:If we go that route, I'd much rather trade down and draft AJ Epenesa.
I'll pass. The more I watch him, the less I like him. At least Epenesa rushes with a plan, even if he's not super bendy. Honestly I'd completely pass on pass rusher in the 1st. Maybe after we trade down from #31 we can find a guy who might drop like Baun, who can be a rotation guy early on until he gets inside a pro weight room and gets bigger.
