What's good with Leonard Floyd? What we got here? Thanks

you will not get a consensus opinion. Its crazy how much variance there is on Floyd.

IMO he is worth the Top 10 pick. He is versatile and can still add weight. Can play OLB and ILB, I dont like him as a hands-down DE in the NFL. But he can play any LB spot, and can cover just about any skill position. Pruitt started using him at ILB and he was really effective there, but I think his speed rush will have him at OLB.

He had to take a 5th year of HS to get his grades right, so he is a bit older but a good kid. I dont think he will be an issue off-the-field and Chicago has been a good spot for UGA guys in the past.

Cliffs:
Pros - Fast. Great in Coverage. Size/Frame.
Cons - Needs to add more Muscle while not losing that Speed. Some liability in run game, and needs more strength to handle NFL Lineman when speed game fails.

His longterm success will be on the Franchise using him correctly, in the right scheme. Otherwise, he could end up like Dion Jordan.

Hes definitely being pegged as an edge rusher within Fangio's 3-4

Think how he used Aldon Smith in San Fran for reference

@I AM WARHOL I didn't tag you cause you've already broke him down nicely for me, thanks

An absolute beast athletically. Can rush the passer from DE or OLB. Can cover out of the backfield, good kid. He's gonna start day 1 for y'all

3-4 Rushing OLB from hell. Lightning fast off the edge...kind of skinny though, thus struggles at times to set the edge. Average coverage skills...just send him 90% of the time and you'll be good.
