OLB. Georgia. Leonard Floyd. 19. player. 26. He had 12 sacks last year but Terrell Suggs is getting up there. The Baltimore Ravens need more than one guy that can bring it off the edge anyway. So the Ravens take a guy with burst off the edge to make up for the loss of Pernell McPhee.
WR. Pittsburgh. Tyler Boyd. 20. player. 13. The San Diego Chargers had a good 2015 offseason, addressing the defense and running game. But long-time receiver Malcom Floyd is 33 with the Sun soon to set on his career. So the Chargers give quarterback Philip Rivers a young receiver to go with Keenan Allen.
I don’t know if the Cincinnati Bengals can revive the career of Michael Johnson. They would be a serious threat to contend if they had someone bringing the heat of the edge. So they pick someone that should be able to do just that for years to come.. DE. Penn State. Anthony Zettel. 21. player. 56
