That one worked out nicely. Really solid player drafted late.

I know I did.
Then I did a little homework and talked myself into it.
He just seemed to have made a poor choice with his transfer. At least for someone looking to establish himself as an NFL prospect. You could look at this Central Michigan tape and see that he had this kind of ability off the edge. But Michigan just buried him in the middle and it kinda screwed him up.
That's a massive scouting win by Veach and company. I didn't like it because frankly I don't have time to go watch a dude's JUNIOR tape or anything. I just didn't think anything of this really middling DT out of Michigan.
Turns out that was Michigan's fault, not Danna's. And Veach was smart enough (and prepared enough) to see that.
