Byron Young listed as starter on Rams first depth chart

4. Byron Young and Michael Hoecht lead the way at EDGE
This should come as expected given that the Rams spent a third-round pick on Young and Hoecht began working at edge towards the end of last season. Still, this is a position that we haven’t heard a lot about throughout training camp. While Young is listed as a starter right now, that could change depending on how players perform in the preseason games. The preseason will be an important period for this group. Behind Young and Hoecht are Nick Hampton and Daniel Hardy.

Our 4 playerst aken in the 3rd round were absolute steals. No one might expect a 3rd rounder to start but an overlooked guy taken in the 3rd round, sure it happens.

Remind me didn't Alvin Kamara also go in the 3rd?

I think Kamara and Jalen Hurd both went in the 3rd.

He didn't develop this guy. Not sure of your point here.

Go to bed. Young came to Tennessee under Huepel in 2021 as 3* recruit. There were eight other recruits rusted high than he was in that 2021 class that signed.
2021-His junior year he wasn’t getting much attention from the NFL? That is why he came back for his senior year.
2022- 2nd Team All SEC(AP), 1st team All SEC(Coaches), led the Vols in sacks, tackle for losses, and QB pressures. Top 5 in SEC in QB hurries, tied 6th in sacks in the SEC.

Graduated high school in 2017, and basically played 1 year between 2017 and 2021 till he signed with UT. Comes to UT on no one’s draft radars and gets drafted early 3rd round. Now he is projected to be the starter. If Heupel didn’t develop him who did then? He spent more time with Heupel and staff than he has anyone else since his high school days.

Saying Heupel didn’t develop BY, is like saying Heupel didn’t develop Hooker or Milton either.

Don't get it. Pretty obvious who developed Young. It's wasn't our offensive minded head coach. 🙄

His staff did. Any time a player gets drafted that HC gets credit for it. Just like the coaches takes all the **** when things don’t work out, rather he was directly involved or not. It was Heupel that hired his entire staff.

Is Heupel a defensive coach? He probably didn't even talk to him at practice. Young was developed by Rodney Garner. Get over yourself and go to bed yourself.

So if this were Pruitt (because he's a defensive coach) you'd give him credit for BY?

Did Pruitt coach defensive line? You dudes are thinking about this way too hard. He was developed by his position coach. How is that so hard to grasp? Y'all just argue for the sake of arguing, like my 13 year old.
