Ark lined up a lot in 3 man fronts (versus 5 or more OL). So forget the stats, watch the tape. 
I think this guy is special. Great pick.

My favorite pick of the draft for us.

Dude is gonna be great.

 

Looks to still be growing into his body. Once he gains the right NFL strength and learns leverage for his body height and length, he will be a game wrecker.

He looks like a Russian contract killer.

Should get immediate playing time at Edge

maybe he splits with Bosa 50/50

 

Bosa

Rousseau

Landon Jackson

(Hoecht)

 

Epenesa vs Solomon vs UDFAs for the last spot on active 53.

 

Epenesa is a trade possibility IMO


Think so. He’s filling the Von snaps imo, so 30-40%? 
 

Someone posted that his play makes AJE obsolete and tradable. I’m starting to think that as well.

many will disagree, but I would look to trade Epenesa + a pick for a 1T to replace DaQuan Jones.  Then the interior would be golden for years

 

Oliver  Sanders

______  Walker

 

maybe we get lucky and a solid 1T is cut between now and September

 

Ogunjobi will be a Bill for 12 games, if any.

Carter is a fringe player IMO

We of course are not scouts but I thought he would be drafted around 40-45 and I thought TJ would be dreaded in the 60s.

 

so if we had taken Landon at 40 and TJ at 75 I would have been thrilled. When we took TJ at 40 I was ??? But alls the same in the end and obviously Beane knew

I think it's a little early to be thinking about trading AJE. We haven't kept just 4 DE's in a good many years. We'll be keeping 5 (at times, we've kept 6) and Hoecht will be roster exempt for the length of his suspension. Bosa isn't going to be taking more than 50% of snaps. He'll likely be under that. And to ask a 3rd Round Pick to take 50% (likely more) of the snaps right out of the gate would be a little surprising.

 

I think while Hoecht is on suspension, having Groot, Bosa, AJE, and Jackson as the rotation is a definitive upgrade from what we were doing. I think you keep all of them (plus Solomon as the 5th man on the 53) until Hoecht returns. Lots of things can happen in 6 weeks in the NFL. You don't want to trade AJE away and then someone goes down in the first 6 weeks and you're outright relying on Jackson and Solomon. Especially when Bosa is historically a walking injury waiting to happen.

 

I believe right now, the 53 DE's are pretty obvious. Groot, Bosa, Epenesa, Jackson, and Solomon (with Hoecht on the Suspended list). Come week 7 if everyone stays healthy and Jackson is rocking and rolling ahead of schedule, then you can look to trade Epenesa. Teams who have had injuries or need a better rotation will be more eager for a veteran like Epenesa at that point.

 

But currently, part of the upgrade to me is making sure you have a solid 4. And i'd like to make sure we have a solid 4 before and after Hoecht returns. If Hoecht wasn't suspended, i'd be more open to moving him now. We need to see how Jackson looks in Real Game action and make sure we haven't lost anyone by Week 7 before we move AJE IMO.

Second to Hairston for me.  Both seem like great and humble kids that will be easy to root for.
