Ed Oliver is quick
OK, he's NOT Aaron Donald. Doesn't have his character or consistency. That said, athletically, he's pretty damn close. Rumored to have run an insane 4.19 SS at his Pro Day today. Don't see a 3-cone yet.
Donald
6-1, 285, 4.68 forty, 35 reps, 32-inch vert, 116 broad, 7.11 3C, 4.39 SS
Oliver
6-2, 287, 4.71 forty, 32 reps, 36-inch vert, 120 broad, ??? 3C, 4.19 SS

Well, my dreams of him falling to us just went out the window.
I've seen a couple mocks where he falls to #18...I'm wondering how much his dust up with Applewhite is playing into this...He's top ten all day...

Sorry meant they were getting wood over the possibility of picking him at 12th. Didn't mean to besmirch their normal slack jawed demeanor.

Sure.
Why would he fall to 18?

He probably won't after his pro day, but if he did it would be character issues. Most of which seem overblown to me. But here in about a week some of the secrets about this class are going to be let out of the bag. Who tested positive, who has a skeleton hidden somewhere.
He’s like a safety who threw on 60lbs and didn’t slow down! The athleticism is insane. He’s quicker and more agile than the majority of linebackers but at 285 with extreme strength. It would be awesome to get another John Randle type of disrupter but it doesn’t look like he’s going unnoticed.
