Edge is a position you can pay and feel good about it. QB is too, but its hard to get a QB in free agency and its kind of undpredictable as to who will even get there because teams tend to hold on to QBs. Analytics say WR is the 2nd most important position in football now, and you've got 3 WR in this draft that would be the WR1 in most other drafts. Then OL and EDGE are 3/4 in some order. Then factor in team need, and Verse just ends up pushed down.

Some teams are also going to prefer Dallas Turner because he has great production too and tested extremely well.

I agree though, it seems like he should crush it in the league. Some team from 10-20ish is going to be very happy that this draft had so much talent at the top end at other spots.

interior defensive lineman is a luxury that you failed to mention.

I mean look at the free agents who got paid just a few days ago. Sure as frick wasn't a WR.

the team that just won the Super Bowl did so with their top receiver being a 4th round rookie from smu. Is the analytics you’re talking about the new strand of crack you’ve been smoking? You can get great production from receivers found all throughout the draft. Hell look at Houston, their best receiver this year was also a 3rd round rookie. Then you think about all the vets that are still playing at an extremely high level. There is a plethora of good receivers in the league right now. Your take is bad and you should feel bad
