6'3", 247 lbsTop 5 EDGE for me(EDGE 4 or 5--I keep going back and forth ). Ronnie is an interesting dude. He's got a long, leggy build, is listed at 247 lbs, and looks small but plays big. Great hands. Active and knows how to maximize length, land first, and keep himself clean. Longarm is his go-to move, and he consistently gets that inside hand on the tackle's chest plate with full extension. Adequate athleticism to threaten the corner with speed, but power is where he makes his money and uses that speed to set up the power. Great motor and effort. The dude is violent and relentless against the run. I love the tenacity, but he's almost too reckless and will find himself out of his gap. Like Joseph Ossai, I want to see the numbers, but he's someone that is in the mix at 42.

That's like 3rd percentile for EDGE prospects

I read he pulled a hammy running the 40. Not sure in which order he ran the different events. He doesn't look like an elite athlete on tape but not a poor one either

Not being an elite athlete is what will drop him to the 3rd round. I think he can easily be a 7-10 sack guy. I would happily take him with our 3rd round comp pick

He's not dropping to the 3rd round. He's a 2nd round prospect and his film is impressive. We'd be lucky if he fell to our 2nd round pick.

We shall see. I can't count how many times on this forum I have read "player x will not drop to there" and then low and behold they do.
