He's a top edge rusher no doubt. They're sposed to be professionals n all but I gotta put an asterisk next to him. Not a no-take but as factor to consider. He grew up 60 miles outside of Atlanta. He was quoted saying that playing for them "would be a dream come true."

My edge rusher board is-
Fowler
Ray
Beasley
Gregory
Dupree

Fowler is the clear cut first gone IMO, so no chance at 13. Ray missed the Combine. Watch his Pro Day March 19. He's my favorite/hope so far. He has an array of pass rushing techniques- not just straight line athleticism. Two other things that I would like to see injected into the D he has- non-stop motor and attitude. He's a baller.

Some on him here. You'll be hearing a lot more after his Pro Day-
Shane Ray story

You do realize college athletes say things like this quite often? I would be pleased with Beasley. No if's, and's or asterisk's about it.

I've read that some scouts think he will be a bust due to his size. I say I don't care about shite like that; production is what matters. I personally am more liking Dupree, because I think he will be a do it all type player; however, Ray is a great option as well.

Fowler and Gregory will most likely be gone. If Beasleys there you have to take him in a heart beat just because of his pure athleticism. The only thing that scares me is if Shane Ray has the ability to be an OLB that can drop back in the pass.

This draft is super deep at the LB position so I wouldnt mind trading back to pick up a stud like Benardrick McKinney in the late first round or early second round. This guy has serious potential to be a star in the NFL.
