I figured Jax would make the smart pick. OTOH I was glad Hock was off the board. Didn't want the temptation to stray away from Ed who I think is just as safe and high caliber as Josh Allen. 2

I love the Oliver pick...but I think the naysayers will say he weighed 287 at the combine loaded up on fluids and likely plays closer to 275 (still MUCH bigger than a modern LB).

Rocket94 Posted April 26, 2019 Posted April 26, 2019 (edited) Heck...he may out play them All! He is going to be a force! Now go get us a good Edge! Edited April 26, 2019 by Rocket94
starrymessenger Posted April 26, 2019 Posted April 26, 2019 I don't think people quite get it. Core strength can be as much a God given attribute as speed, agility etc... Ed Oliver is just tremendously strong for his weight. He's a lot like Donald that way. 3
