NFL Draft 2022: Chris Simms' top 5 edge rushers | Chris Simms Unbuttoned | NBC Sports

[@TheOriginalBlackBradPitt]

Chris Simms is the only evaluator I really respect, actually does his own analysis, has real thoughts and doesn’t just push or pull a narrative without having a real opinion

[@danielbranagan9269]

Love the pod listen all the time. Little something maybe to improve would be while you are talking about these players, play some highlights in the background of them. I know it is a pod, but for those of us who watch it would be cool to watch while you explain! You guys are great and thanks for the content !

[@seanm3189]

Copy right infringement my dude. He’s not trying to get all his videos taken down. He’s too high up in KZbin. Lower content creators can get away with it, he cannot

[@uncharted-desert-isle]

My Broncos got Chris's #5 Nik Bonitto, I absolutely love his analysis.I can't believe he fell in our lap at pick #64 holy sh!t.

[@ajkareem5685]

Love it cuz he’s on your team. Blind fans are a joke

[@spoogtastic]

Im not surprised he doesn't have Kayvon. He isn't Simms's type of player profile he usually really likes.

[@IsHeReal088]

Wow, no Kayvon, I kinda see Kayvon and Stingley in the same perspective, questions about giving their 100% every play…

[@erikpuka2627]

Stingley got elite elite physical traits. Theyvjust have not manifested itself in play the last 2 seasons. KT doesn't have those. He just living off highschool hype. Players like him are lika Viagra for Area Scouts.

[@AngelRivera-bs7uf]

Nik Bonitto ahead of KT ??? No disrespect to Bonitto , but KT is a top 3 player in this draft !

[@Goodsense215]

Yup, he's correct KT is overrated.

[@steveandersen2291]

You must be joking

[@ajkareem5685]

You are right . Because no logical thinking person would have KT out of the top 5. Literally for views and controversy. He’s knows the truth.

[@Urbohat]

Travon Walker has great combine measurables and Georgia's defense was not highlighting his pass rushing skills. But given his speed and cone score he may be great as a linebacker/3 rd down rusher like Micha Parsons but bigger. Sounds like he needs to develop edge rush techniques. That being said, he's too tempting to pass up in top 5.

[@wasssuuuppp]

The Kayvon dropping in the draft might just end up happening

[@TARugg]

I hope Joe Douglas is watching this

[@dprice2800]

Wow, no Kayvon

They aren’t separate it’s dependent on scheme if they’re serperate or not

[@knowledgeuntamed9177]

@@losauce521 Right and half the teams don't need a 260pd or less DE, and the other half don't need a 270-290Lb 3-4 Edge

Deangelo Malone is a sleeper. Understand the Kayvon omission. Might be boom/bust.

[@michaelprunty3104]

Chris Simms is the best talent evaluator in the media. Period! He has me worried now about the Jets taking Olave and Wilson at #10. He doesn’t have either in his top 5 WRs. I’m really curious about what he says is his top 5 edge rushers in the above film.

Great vid- I think simms gave them watt as a comp for every guy lol

[@knowledgeuntamed9177]

If George has went to Ohio St, we arecalling him a Watt or Bosa like prospect. Joey Bosa is very similar. Anywhere between 10 and 40. Kerrigan is another good comp. Think Bears at 39 are his floor.

[@1percent___]

Travon walker could be like fletcher cox

[@scvboy1]

Kayvon not even being in the top 5 makes this the dumbest list of all time. He's the best edge prospect in the draft.

[@HarrisonHollers]

You a scout with extensive knowledge? Or did you play in the league? Have contacts in the league? oH. Cuz Chris does.

[@jackh577]

Why am I guessing that you didn't watch his pod cast, and have no idea what he said about the other guys....

[@HarrisonHollers]

@@jackh577 probably. He states exact reasons why he puts the others ahead of KT. Chris, like his father, are both detailed in how they describe player’s bodies. Both Phil and Chris have appeared on WFAN and talk about guys waists and “seats.” I’m thinking it goes Hutch, TW, Ickey, JJ now

[@scvboy1]

@David Hamilton Yup. Kayvon has the best mix of power and speed of any edge in this class. Karlaftis and Hutchinson have more raw power, Drake Jackson has more speed, but Kayvon has a great mix of both. He's by far the most polished in the class with a good number of rushing moves for a college player, and he has terrific bend off the edge. He also plays well in space so the speedy QBs like Murray or Jackson won't get by him as easily. The "takes plays off" talking point is weak. Anyone that watched the film saw a good motor. Maybe not the best, but solid. Him going outside oft he top 3 would be insane and I'd take him number 1 overall.

[@scvboy1]

[@knowledgeuntamed9177]

Where does Bonito fit tho, gonna have a hard time setting an Edge in the Nfl at 230. He's a Bruce Irvin type to me. He will get destroyed in a 3-4 in the run on the Edge. So he's a situational pass rusher there like Irvin was coming in. The 4-3 he's a Olb and sub for DE in a wide 9. Great talent but it's about fit. Bears 4-3 will want 220pd guys who can cover in pass. So in that type of 4-3 he's a Sub. The 4-3 Minnesota used to run, having Barrs at Lolb in that 4-3 or a Wide 9 DE like in Seattle or Dallas. Because all that, I got Bonito falling to the 3rd, even if he is a top 50 player.

[@HimuraBattousai98]

He came in heavier at the combine

[@knowledgeuntamed9177]

@@HimuraBattousai98 ok so he's hoping to be a 3-4 Edge...Gonna be hard for him to not pass rush and just hold a giant Lt inside so that a RB can't get around the edge. That's what setting a edge means idk if ya knew. Seen greats get lit up. Quinn before this last year. All Pro and had trouble setting a 3-4 edge

[@losauce521]

He’s literally over 245? That’s quite normal for an edge

[@knowledgeuntamed9177]

@@losauce521 scouting reports through college have had his playing weight at 220. Trust me if you was right he would be a Top 5 pick. The thing scouts worry about when a prospect does that is losing speed. I think he's Bruce Irvin so I'm not hating, just explaining why his stock may fall some. 240 is usually a inside LB in a 3-4 btw, Edge is around 260 up. Not saying guys can't do it. My guess is Seattle takes him in the 2nd or 3rd.

@@cordariusjohnson2601 It is early, but the concern is Wilson had a good o-line. Unless your targets are awful and you have zero run game, there's really no excuse for an NFL QB to struggle. But, he does have tantalizing talent. There are a few QBs who are playing with 3rd stringers and practice squad guys and teams have already given up on them.
