With the coming up of the NFL Draft in 2022, arrives the final tremendous opportunity for clubs to improve their destiny for the following season. Aidan Hutchinson of Michigan is among the few athletes for this year’s draft. Mike Renner of Pro Football Focus is a big fan of the erstwhile Wolverine. However, his comparison has sparked outrage among NFL athletes, rolling in with some vehement reactions.

While many experts have focused on the quarterbacks and wide receivers in this draft, the edge defenders also have been a hot topic. There’s a rationale the Heisman Trophy nominee is being spoken about as a possible first-round pick later in the month. There’s no doubt that he is league-ready.

Does Adrian Hutchinson stand on the Bosa Brother’s level?

This season, Aidan Hutchinson had a 94.5 aggregate PFF grade while creating 74 charges. He also shared some impressive exercise statistics and metrics. The only stumbling block came from his exceptionally short limbs for a 6-foot-7 man. Despite being in the 98th percentile for height, his arm length is in the 17th percentile.

However, his college performance shows that this is unlikely to become an issue at the next level, given exceptional PFF pass-rushing grades are strongly linked to NFL success. Hutchinson isn’t quite on the same level as the Bosa siblings, but he’s approaching, as he checks all the criteria. He is unquestionably a top pass-rushing prospect who will grow even further under the right coaching.
