I honestly don't understand the ranking of him in the first round by most boards yet Joe Tryon is ranked at the bottom of the second. Tryon is the better player at this point. I don't think Oweh is a first-round caliber player.
I'm not about to start subscribing to the hidden stats, that's how you end up championing players like Matt Cassel and Alex Smith. The numbers say he didn't get a sack in 7 games in college. In fact, they say he's had 1 sack in the last 12. Sorry, I'm not taking an edge rusher at 31 that couldn't get to the QB in college.
Does he have some exciting tools to work with and could he become a better pro as he grows? Sure, I think so. I think that's the type of player you take in the 2nd round.
