Re: Round 3: Jonathan Bullard
His ability to get off blocks and close is ridiculous. Anytime you watch highlights of guys with similar tackle-for-loss numbers they've got a free run on half of those tackles or more. Bullard always has a body on him, he just disengages so quickly

And Wooten had problems holding the edge to win against running plays, so Bullard should be better at that hopefully. Obviously being a 3-4 end is different than a 4-3 too. Hard to get a grasp on this guy's potential.
Wootton wasn't athletic. He was just big and strong, but he didn't have elite nfl strength. Bullard has elite block shedding and pursuit for his position. That's what I see on his tape and what all the pros on TV have said.

The scouting reports and draft reports that we have been getting lately sound nothing like Wooten. No need to point that out anymore guys, its been digested.
