Jon and I continue our scouting series with a look at five more edge prospects, breaking down their strengths, weaknesses, potential scheme fits, and our grades for each player. We also discuss the value of a “heavy end” in 2026, what differentiates Joshua Josephs from David Bailey, which player has the biggest boom-or-bust potential, and which of the run-down enforcers has a chance to be an every-down player. If you missed part one, you can hear that here.
