My only issue with this pick is seeing a 24 year old dominating what I consider a lower level of competition. When you look at the highlights in this clip I can't help but to see the teams:

Yale
Arizona St.
Kansas
West Virginia
UCF
K state
Oregon St.
Pine Bluff

Utah and Oregon were good teams, but the NFC west alone will be a huge step up in competition. I cannot wait to see him play against the big boys and I hope he dominates.

We will see...

I can't wait for Morris to throw out his 5 man front. If Gracen Halton shows he can get significant reps this is a group that is going to do some serious damage and is night and day better from what we had last year.

DE- Nick Bosa
DT- Osa Odiahizuwa
DT- Gracen Halton
DE- Mykel Williams
OLB- Romello Height

LB- Fred Warner
LB- Dre Greenlaw

Throw in Collins and West rotating with Osa in base D and Wallow at SAM who looked great in the playoffs and our D is going to look much improved from the mash unit we had to play last year.

On paper that is a damn good looking defense!!!

The second pick in the draft played the same schedule he did.

I'm good with the CBs, but the safeties scare the s**t out of me.

No worries. Ronnie Lott is coming out of retirement.

I still think he's an OLB under the 3-4 scheme... he reminds me of Bernardrick McKinney..

The safeties seemed out of position too often, guarding grass more than bodies

Green didnt play well at all. He needs a bounce back.

People who haven't watched Height's tape are going to be surprised by his ability at times as a 239-pound edge rusher to win with power. It's something I think he needs to do more often, but it's something he keeps in his back pocket. That speed rush and inside counter spin really open things up for him to mess with a tackle's footwork.

That spin move looks disgusting and I think he just added that to his bag and hasn't perfected it yet, so it could become a go to move with more reps using it.
