I've never heard of him either, and that seems like a lot to give up for a former UDFA who is still trying to prove himself.
But I read up on him. 3 seasons. Only played 8 games last year because of a suspension (PED) and then a concussion. But he had 7 sacks in 8 games, which projects to a nice total. And that's coming from the DT position, which is pretty crazy. And apparently he was leading the league in sacks for all DTs when we went down with the concussion.
He also had 6 pass deflections, which projects to double digit numbers there. That's a stat we've lagged in for awhile - did we even have 6 total pass deflections this past season, as a team?
So interesting prospect, but not sure he's worth a big contract and a 2 round pick.
