It’s not always the biggest names that are key to the NFL Draft. There’s a thing called value and here are some valuable picks at positions. Here are the top five edge rusher values.


1. BJ Ojulari, Arizona Cardinals

2. Myles Murphy, Cincinnati Bengals

— He is a late round one kid, so not a sleeper, but when I see guys like Tyree Wilson and Lukas Van Ness going higher, I’m puzzled. Murphy played at a higher level.

3. Derick Hall, Seattle Seahawks

4. Keion White, New England Patriots

— He didn’t look thrilled to be drafted in round two, and I like that. He’s an even-keeled kid who thinks he’s a top-15 pick and will play with a chip on his shoulder.
