You also saw the part where they said he was supposed to be a middle round pick?

"Neild is a run-stopping defensive tackle who could contribute in a defensive line rotation at the next level. He is stout with a strong lower half and is very difficult to move out of running lanes. He also has very active hands to keep blockers from getting inside and flashes the lateral range to make plays outside of the tackle box. However, he lacks explosion off the line and is very raw as a pass rusher. Neild possesses natural leverage and is an asset against the run and he will likely be a middle round pick."

I am betting the "not" was a word error as everything else about their profile is prototypical NT stuff and they give NO reason as to why he couldn't play NT.
