He didn’t have the sexy sack numbers but that’s literally it. He has everything else. Measurable, youth, man strength, speed, and versatility to rush from the inside.
You can’t ask for much more at 17
Nor tackles for loss. Only 11 of those in 3 seasons (37 college games). In other words, he has all the measurables that you mentioned, just not actual production in the college ranks (1.5 sacks each year). Abdul Carter, for example, had 12 sacks and 23.5 tackles for loss in 16 games last season. How does someone with so much speed and strength and quickness -- accomplish so little in terms of sacks and tackles for loss? It is now going to come up to whether Golden can develop him. He must think that he can, because they did draft him knowing how poor his production was in college.
