Arden Key brings LSU edge-rush juice, but the question is fit and timing
Arden Key was a high-upside LSU pass-rush weapon who flashed big-play disruption in college, including 14.5 tackles for loss and 12 sacks in the 2016 season, then battled a shoulder issue that delayed his 2017 debut[11][15]. His calling card is burst off the edge, length, and a knack for creating negative plays, which makes him the kind of defender coaches love when they want chaos in the backfield[11][13]. The catch: his LSU profile fit more as a true edge rusher than an off-ball linebacker, so the best fit is a system that lets him attack, not read and react.
