Late round DE

[Chawker]

DE Mike Morris 6' 6" 290 Michigan

Second team all American, played as a standing DE/LB could play a DE in a 3-4 or move inside in a 4-3 to play a 3 tech. Morris has pass rushing skills. His father played in the NFL.

I believe he is just what Pete has been looking for. Could be a great late round pick up.

Cheers

I think he is more of a 2nd or 3rd round prospect. Big athletic d-lineman, but maybe not a DOG against the run. High upside for sure though.

We've had luck with day 2 plain-named Michigan edge defenders in the past.

Seahawks did a interview with Morris at the combine. His pass rushing skills are very good. Maybe selected in round two.

I think he should be a better version of Q Jefferson.

Testing numbers were uninspiring for Morris compared to similar size 5T prospects. Maybe that makes him a good value on draft day, but I don't see him going very early.

He had a bad combine. He isn't a dog in the run game and isn't as athletic as I thought he was. I down grade him to a 5th round or later prospect.

Hopefully this repeats! Good value on day 3

 

[Chawker]

A nice addition to our DL.
