Also he clearly says he's comparing Young to where the aforementioned players graded out as prospects, not based on what they accomplished in their pro careers.

I think we forget every player, no matter how known or unknown they were, all enter the league as an unknown entity.

Casserly's evaluation is fair. In general the media has been hyping him as a generational talent. It's the Ohio State hype machine. He had some games where he wrecked the other teams offense, but he was also quiet in some others. If he comes in here next year and has 8 sacks and a solid but unspectacular year then everyone will call him a bust. That would be unfair.

I just hope we draft him, pair him w/ Sweat and see what those two can do. We may have our best set of DE's since Dex and Mann.
