[QUOTE="Dantés, post: 720681, member: 12283"] Yep. But had JJ played at WISC anything like he has since his second season in the NFL, he would have gone #1. The tape on him was good, but not amazing. Texans took him there based on athleticism as much as on field production and it paid off huge. Now I would bet a lot that TJ is not as good as JJ at the next level. Mostly because older brother genuinely has a case to be in the discussion for best defensive player of all time. So that's about as high as the bar gets. But I do believe that, barring injuries derailing him, TJ is one of the safer prospects that could be available to the Packers and with a crazy high ceiling. People tend to look at the athletic profile types as the risky guys and the big production players as the safer picks, but I tend to think it's reversed when it comes to edge prospects. Traits like Watt's just don't bust very often. And when they do it's often got a lot to do with not being able to hold weight or not being invested in the game. Those aren't going to be his problems.
