He's a Jason Pierre-Paul type prospect. Elite, ELITE, upside. Like if he were to put it together, this dude could be one of the best players in the game. Even if you get half of that upside, he can be a very good, productive player.

Athleticism projects (the key word) that he'll be able to drop back into coverage well, and for a guy that didn't see the field much and doesn't really know the game, he's very physical so he projects as someone that can be an every down player that can stop the run as well.

Guys like him always get taken early because it's worth taking the risk imo.

I think Jarvis Jones is the best pass rusher of any of them. After that I'd say Dion Jordan because he's shown the ability to rush and spent a lot of snaps at Oregon dropping into coverage (and doing it well)

Ansah and Mingo are similar prospects to me. Mingo has more experience while being a freak athlete in his own right that you'd expect to play much better as a stand up linebacker so I may even go with him over Ziggy, but I get the motivation to take a shot on him.

agreed...not to mention he is extremely intelligent and seems like a phenomenal kid. He is the swing for the fences pick in this draft.
