    interesting. Very good athleticism. The shuttle and cone numbers are nice too. Both kids need to have higher bench for their size and ability.

    Yeah, I'm not even close to saying Alexander is better...just for context.

    And regarding the comment about bench press, it's tough with 35" arms.

    Very Hardy like IMO.

    Supposed heart issues are the reason some say he should be a 7th rounder not ability IMO.

    love the wingspan, like him over Ronnell Lewis whom some sites had projected to us much earlier.

    Last time we traded with the 49ers in order to move up and take a DE it worked out so well that I can see why they wanted to do it again......

    the 9ers reached with AJ and James, but they did awefully well last year so you've just got to wait and see how all this actually pans out

    He's supposed to be boring athletically but his highlights show a really fast dude.
    Awesome SR year too.
