1st Rounder
If a player can't set the EDGE vs. the run, he's simply a situation pass rusher ala Yannick Ngakoue who, btw, is still a free agent at just 29 years old.
not the best comparison because he's been a 4-3 end and he was a 3rd round pick, not a 1st rounder.
But, Rams would love to have an edge get 8-10 sacks a year for the next 7 years. If Young does that, he will be a good 3rd round pick ...
Playing the run is technique, it can be learned ... and for Rams in current scheme any of the edges can learn it, IMO. Turner, Chop, all of them CAN
do it. If they chose to learn
And got ran at and is available this late in the offseason and not signed to a huge new deal. Situational pass rushers can and have put up big sack numbers. That's the job.
Also, It doesn't matter what round the player is selected once the draft is over or if the player had played EDGE in a 3-4 defense prior (Quinn never did until Phillips showed up).
The only point being made is that you want a complete player at the position.
