Good head on his shoulder! I really like his determination to be better and take whatever steps needed to improve.

Go Bucks!

Most underrated recruit in this class, IMO. Narrowly beating out Malik Hooker. I think people have slept on these two guys but I will not be surprised if Dylan isn't an early contributor at OSU.

I knew he could be a brute in the run game and bullrush but I really saw some finesse in that film I didn't know Dylan possessed. I think he can slide inside or play SDE much like we are doing with Bosa. He might not have the God-given athleticism of Bosa but I think he is a little stronger and plenty athletic enough to contribute here in the rotation and early (I stand with Wade!). Plenty of motor too, really hard worker. Really excited to see what Dylan brings to the table.

Seems to shed blocks very well, seal the edge very well, take good angles, penetrates, sound tackling, reads well, athletic, needs 10-15 lbs for DE, 30 lbs for DT.

Should benefit greatly In our s&c program. Kid is already strong as an ox. Will probably redshirt to put on the weight you were talking about. I can see him growing into a DT rather easily

They say he's a bigger John Simon. That's high praise indeed! He's a beast.

Tough break(no pun intended). He could have helped this year. But, this is another great kid who will redshirt and be healed for Spring football.
