Edge Rusher James Pearce Jr (Draft Crush)

RJS said

I've read that NFL teams view him similarly to Brian Burns coming out and expect him to go in the top half of round 1. He's a really good player.

If they decide to wait for an edge player, I like what I've seen from Jah Joyner of Minnesota. He's a long, fast prospect that can do some things similar to Pearce, He might make it to day 3.

I like the Brian Burns comp alot!
Very similar coming out of college.

Some are worried about JPJ's strength bc of his weight in a 4-3 defense, but I'm not.

I definitely think he's going to add some bulk, but he plays bigger than his size, and he's tall and lanky.

He lead the SEC in pressures the last 2 years. Usually a pretty good sign. When you open up the tape you can definitely see why.

He's Edge #2 for me, and the gap between him and Abdul Carter is closer than many think IMO
