At 30, you’re definitely going for raw skills and circumstance if you hope a DE turns into a stud.

Rousseau is a freak in terms of size and length.  
Opting out and a bad pro day killed his once Top 10 stock.

I’ve heard comparisons to Calais Campbell and JPP.

I’ll take it.  I don’t love it or hate it.  The FO has earned my respect (although their DL philosophy is a place that is wavering).

We now have Hughes, Addison, Epenesa, Rousseau, Obada and Johnson at DE.   Hard to believe we keep 6.  I’d be a much bigger fan of this pick if we move/cut Hughes or Addison.

Clearly we have a type, as all the young guys are 6’6/6’7.

Was glad when we didn’t go with Javante Williams... Kiper was freaking me out like he knew something.   Missing Etienne and still taking a RB would’ve had me some type of way.

My hope was Elijah Moore, but let’s hope Rousseau grows into his very real potential.

Let’s also hope he can provide situational pass rush ability this year, because we have chance to win it all and two years in a row of developmental DE’s will get tiresome quick - especially if we’re still searching for pass rush throughout the season.
