Stats: 64 tackles, 18 tackles for loss, 10 sacks, four fumbles recovered, three fumbles forced, broke up six passes.

6'5" and 245 lbs, is a bit of a "tweener", with the size of a linebacker, but playing defensive end. He was slated by some experts to be taken in the first round, due mostly to a strong showing in the senior bowl, but slid to the third round.

The word on him is that he is a good pass rusher who has good moves, great quickness, acceleration, and speed into the backfield. On the other hand, he needs to get stronger and bulk up some if he's going to play on the defensive line.

He looks like the kind of player who's going to be a pass rushing specialist in JJ's defense, but won't be an every down player

To me, that was a no-brainer when Jimmy johnson drafted him. Neither he nor Sam Madison should have lasted as long as they did in the 97 Draft.
 
Its amazing how he keeps doing it. Its either him or Julius Peppers for defensive MVP
 
I love that last line. That is an awesome find man! JT is the best defensive lineman in football.
 
I wish JJ was still drafting for us. Shame he is a tv show analyst, because there is nobody in football with as good of an eye for talent as JJ.
