But PFF listing him as an edge doesn't make a ton of sense to me. I don't think that's where he ends up at the next level.

I don't think PFF really think he's an Edge either. Whenever he's mentioned he's discussed as a guy who ends up being a DT who occasionally shifts to rush from the edge. Problem is he's not great against the run as a DT. I like him a lot, I think he's the best chance you have of getting a guy who can rush inside and out AND turn into a competent "run stuffer" at a non-premium draft pick. But I think he falls between our picks.
