I guess I just see things a little differently on Jayson Oweh. I watch him play football and I don't just see a guy who could be good in the NFL, I see a guy I want on my side of the field when I'm on defense. I want the way he can chase a ball out to the sidelines and keep a decent play from turning into a big play. Just try holding him back from second chance and scramble sacks. There are a lot of tools there, in pass rush. He's shown strength. He has more range than you know what to do with.
I'd much rather put him on my card than Jaelan Phillips, with all those health issues.
Edge class is weak this year, particularly at the top, because you get the feeling some of the lower tier guys will out-play the upper tier guys.
But the thing about an edge class is it's like a receivers class. There are always going to be plenty of them out there to get you excited because there were a lot of them put in favorable positions to make big plays. That's what you do with your edge, you open the way for him to sack the quarterback and get the fans jumping around, not unlike a receiver being on the receiving end of a big play.
So I mean, between Jayson Oweh, Jaelan Phillips, Kwity Paye, Carlos Basham, Azeez Ojulari, Greg Rousseau, Elerson Smith, Joseph Ossai, Cam Sample, Payton Turner, Janarius Robinson, Joshua Kaindoh, Dayo Odeyingbo, Rashad Weaver, Quincy Roche, Joe Tryon, Ronnie Perkins, Hamilcar Rashed, Ade Ogundeji, Daelin Hayes, and Tarron Jackson...you're going to get some NFL players. You'd probably take any of them at a certain point in the draft.
