2025 Draft: EDGE

If we keep both 3rd rounders, I really like the run of edge defenders in the mid-late second round through to the 4th:

Bradyn Swinson
Princely Umanmielen
Josaiah Stewart
Jack Sawyer
Kyle Kennard
Femi Oladejo
Que Robinson
Ashton Gillotte
Antwan Powell-Ryland
JT Tuimoloau

And Elijah Roberts
 
Oluwafemi Oladejo is the most intriguing of the bunch.

Played both sides of the ball in high school. He started at LB primarily at Cal. He's only 21 so plenty of time to develop.



Intriguing for sure, but probably the worst pass rusher of the lot although that's down to lack of experience rather bad skills.

Of the two inexperienced guys, Que Robinson is the one that speaks to me. He's already hitting 1 pressure every seven snaps and he's not even a regular starter yet. I really like them both but lean a little towards Robinson because of his untapped upside.
 
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

Yeah but he showed the skills at the senior bowl. How old is Que? I still can't seem to find the age for some of these guys. I just know his dad died so he likely isn't as young.

He's a 5th year senior so 23?
 
WTF

He ain’t lasting until the third round.
 
I think this is the opposite of an endorsement for James Pierce


I remember seeing a lot of mocks before the start of last season that had him as the top pick. He’s cost himself a lot.
 
Considering the emphasis the Patriots defensive coaches have put on violence, that quote feels like a "come and get me" plea.

I believe Swinson, Kennard, or Sawyer could be there in the 3rd. If so they would make really nice value picks to groom behind our veterans.

Id love Oladejo in the 3rd, speaking of grooming guys. He brings that violence we've been hearing about from the staff.
 
I forgot where i saw it but the comp was Malcom koonce for this guy
When I was watching Koonce as a potential FA signing for us, I thought he was a good fit as he played a lot out of the wide 9 formation.
