as more than an interior pass rusher on 3rd downs, and thinks he can hold his own outside on passing downs, then yes, I could see early round 2.
Here's my problem. He did most of his damage from either the inside with his quickness, or from the outside crashing hard and fast in, or just wide looping the OT. There is no dip and rip, he doesn't seem to be flexible enough to flatten out at the top of his pass rush and get to the qb. And if teams feel he is a DE in a 43, then IMO they will dock him for his lack of body flexibility.
Now, that said, I love his motor. If you have the ball, he's coming for you even if it's 50 yards away. Everyone that talks about him says he is a high IQ guy and high character guy. Those 3 things alone make his bust factor significantly lower.
In a trade down scenario or early round 3. He is absolutely viable. I'd love the pick actually.
