Ohio State’s Chase Young is the big prize at edge rusher

The NFL loves pass rushers, and the 2020 NFL draft will offer another group of first-round worthy prospects who can challenge for top-five status.

The title of best-in-class right now belongs to Young, who’s been crowned the next in line at Ohio State to follow the footsteps of Joey and Nick Bosa as elite pass-rushers. There’s no reason to doubt that projection.

Young had a fantastic 2018 season when he finished with 9.5 sacks and 14.5 tackles for loss, a stat line that feels like an appetizer for the main course he’ll deliver in 2019.
