2025 Draft: EDGE

[manxman2601]

I liked Tyler Batty when I watched him as a later round run stuffing edge prospect. I did not realise he’s almost 26 years old though!

A lot of BYU players are older because of having to serve as missionaries.

BYU lineman Tyler Batty waited his whole life to become a Cougar. He’ll have to wait some more.

Tyler Batty had been waiting for what seemed like a lifetime to join the BYU football team. The Payson native always dreamed of being a Cougar and donning the royal blue, but had to wait for it.

It would be interesting to see what we’d do at 38 if Stewart and Scourton both fell out of the first

I agree here with Evan.

He is certainly twitched up, I just wished he played with more power.

That’s why he’s day two.

Interesting to see they both rate Mike Green that high. Has the character concerns been overblown? If so I'd be back on that wagon in a heartbeat!

Same for Pearce who was dropping.

Crazy fact. Que Robinson has double the number of special teams snaps than he does defensive snaps. So he's inexperienced but I've just seen Sam Monson and Steve Palazzolo say he has first round ability. I've always liked him as a day three value pick and now it turns out he'll be able to be part of the special teams unit too. Probably my second favourite day three prospect.

We might want to have a debate about Nic Scourton at 38. Lance Zierlein's comp for him is Trey Hendrickson and he's only 20. Connor Rodgers has him as his third highest graded EDGE.

One thing to note is that you need to watch his Purdue tape where he was playing at the weight he is now. The TAMU tape has him playing heavier and in a mixture of DL roles.

Don't forget, he's only 19 here.

Lance Zierlein projects Bradyn Swinson to go in the 4th to 5th round. I just don’t get it.

 

[State]

Of the pass rushers I mentioned, the following best represent the Chaisson role:

Umanmielen
Swinson
Oladejo
Robinson
Kennard

The following would be good backups for Keion White's edge role:

Tuimoloau
Gillotte
Elijah Roberts
Sawyer
Jared Ivey
Jordan Burch

Where would you put Syracuse’s Fadil Diggs? The Chaisson role?

He did his religious obligation as a Mormon in Spain during the Wuhan flu lockdown. So what?

That’s good. Still makes him an older rookie though.

Josiah Stewart taking on blocks at 6’1 and 249.



Some key words from Lance Zierlein’s scouting report: “He plays with all-day aggression and thirst for contact.” “He’s violent at all contact points”, “Play is determined and aggressive”.

Does that not sound like exactly what Vrabel and his defensive coaching staff have been preaching? I think he might end up as a lock for me in the third round of my final mock.

I wasn't big on Stewart before but he's growing on me.

James Foster ranking every edge rusher. These videos are great.

He is reported to be the toughest guy on the Michigan team by his teammates. By far. Probably going back their championship season too.

Talk about in depth! Neat resource. Thanks.
