CBSSports.com’s Rob Rang’s draft projection: Fifth round

Rob Rang’s analysis: He shows flashes. He has the build you’re looking for: big, strong athlete. He’s one of those guys who looks the part because he does have long arms. He does have a long build to him. In a 4-3 defense, you’re looking for defensive ends to have length to get by offensive tackles. The biggest concern I have is I don’t see a lot of explosiveness.
