His weigh in at the combine is going to tell me a whole lot. I have seen him anywhere from 215 lbs to 230 lbs., and as of Dec. I read he may be up to 241 lbs.
On his 6'-5" frame, he really needs to carry 245 to 250 lbs. But at the same time, his speed and flexibility make him special. So he has to balance carrying enough weight to handle holding up against the run and not carrying so much weight that he loses his explosiveness.
That said, I like him, he was a little less impactful in the second half of the year, but he was being schemed against, it was obvious. I have seen him anywhere from 10th in the 1st round until later in the 2nd. I think he is a late 1st, early 2nd depending on his combine (mostly the weigh in)
Chase Winovich is a football player. Advanced technique, more speed then he gets credit for, and he plays with passion and a high motor. he's not the most flexible edge rusher, but he gets the job done. I have concerns about pass coverage, but I do on most edge rushers.
