If you’re on mobile and the chart won’t display:

Michigan’s Kwity Paye leads this year’s draft class at edge rusher. Paye got better every year in Ann Arbor and brings freakish athleticism and strong skills against both the run and pass. Georgia’s Azeez Ojulari would be closer behind Paye were it not for some injury concerns. Penn State’s Jayson Oweh is a high-upside prospect to watch. Duke’s Chris Rumph II is one of the more underrated prospects in the draft; we’re he a little bigger, I have no doubts his draft stock would match my grade on him.
