I think for what we need you may be right. Player for player I'm not so sure. But for what our D needs (Dee Ford) he seems to make more sense.

Late first-early day 2 for Azeez, IMO.
I haven't got to watching him yet, but I did do Burns, he went miles too late, much better than Ferrell who went #4 for being stout against the run.
This game is about effecting QB's these days.
Yup, if Bosa was gone, I wanted Burns. His hands were so good, his dip/balance were superhuman, and his counter game was nasty.

Also loving the Burns comp.
Unlike Phillips, Ojulari's never retired due to excessive concussions so there's that as a bonus.

Azeez Ojulari (@_Azeez_8) may only be a rSo. but he has the tools to be an All-American. His ability to bend and overall length is hard to come by. Expect 10+ sacks from a player who may be a top 5 edge rusher in the country. #DraftTwitter pic.twitter.com/ZxwkWblRu1

With Bosa coming back from a major injury. Ford's health is still unknown and Hyder a FA, we got to add more pass rushers! Just too many question marks in this unit and I would like this guy to bookend with Bosa. I hope we can get Hyder back and we're set there. Not expecting anything from Ford, but if he somehow able to comeback and contribute that's icing for this coming year.

Yup. Three certified starters is what I'm looking for (Bosa, maybe Hyder, and a rookie). Plus rotational guys in Jordan Willis and Ronald Blair if cheap enough. If not draft another edge player on day 3 to develop.

Indeed. My Miami homerism will not allow me to let him go.

I didn't even know he was a Redshirt Sophomore! Assumed Junior, that intrigues me, kid has plenty of room to grow.
Weight room and a ham sandwich and we're laughing!
Have 2 Fields games to go and then I'm onto edges, have a feeling this guy may be first!

Yeah but phillips is the best pass rusher coming off the edge by far in this whole draft and phillips had bad luck with injuries plus got into a freak vehicle accident and then ucla pretty much forced him to retire.

Ojulari is a good prospect, but no where near the level of burns

Me too, but throw Josh Allen in there too.

Close enough to be worthy of #12?
If we could get Stafford for two 2nds and draft an EDGE in the 1st id be super hyped.
We rolled through GB last year with our DL and pass rush and will roll through NFC playoffs next year if we can replace Ford's abilities opposite Bosa.
