A couple more thoughts on Grady Jarrett:
1. In that podcast between Kyed and Josh Norris that I've mentioned, Norris mentioned that Easley played a lot of 1-tech at Florida, in fact, he said that Easley plays best at the 1-tech because with his speed, he can exploit a centre that has just snapped the ball. Grady Jarrett has played over the center for Clemson but also plays the 3-tech. In the current NFL where the pass play makes up 50-65% of all offensive plays, having Jarrett and Easley play alongside each other isn't that ridiculous, particularly with Hightower and Collins playing behind them. And if that is what is happening, you have two linemen that can play the 1-tech and 3-tech interchangeably. That's no small thing.
2. Watch the first play in the video below. See Jarrett (#50) demonstrate his recognition skills and athleticism to blow up a screen pass to Todd Gurley. I can see BB loving that play.
