Brian Baldinger predicts LA Rams 2020 NFL Draft edge rushers at 52

Edge rusher Anae

Per NFL.com, Bradlee Anae is a 6-foot-3 257-pound goliath who prefers to attack blockers over setting an edge and letting blockers come to him.  He earns his reputation by the high volume of plays and his consistent energy of attacking mentality. At his size and strength, he can do that rather easily, whether in a two or three-point stance.

He was the standout at the senior bowl who was getting good social media commentary about how explosively he burst off the edge. In the absence of common opponents, many NFL teams view the East-West Shrine Bowl and Senior Bowls as the true measure of players. How do the NFL Draft hopefuls perform against the quality talent of the same level? In the case of Bradlee Anae, very well indeed.

Anae is a solid choice if he falls to the Rams. The trick is with a draft ranking which projects him as either a player for round two to three selection, which of the four draft selections should the Rams plan to call his name?  With four picks in those rounds, the team can hurry to name him at 52, or try to squeeze out the value and wait to pick 104.
