“This guy is a dog,” Saban said on the ESPN draft telecast. “This guy is productive. He opens his hips, gets around the tackle, makes the sack. This guy can play the run. He plays with great effort. He’s got great initial quickness. I just love this guy.”

The Rams added to their already outstanding pass-rush unit by drafting Josaiah Stewart at No. 90 overall in the third round.

"The Rams can’t have enough pass rushers. Stewart joins a crowded group that includes Jared Verse and Byron Young. Stewart, a one-year starter at Michigan, proved to be an explosive player coming out of blocks. His quick get-off allowed him to produce 13 tackles for loss and eight sacks last season."
