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.
In recent times, Pro Football Focus’ Mike Renner has been making his perspective on the budding athletes who will show up in the NFL draft. He remarked ex-Wolverine, Aidan Hutchinson, calling him a better athlete than Joey and Nick, the Bosa Brothers.

He mentions on the Pro Football Focus NFL Podcast, “Aidan Hutchinson is a better athlete than the Bosa Brothers.”
The bizarre analogy enrages NFL fans and athletes
The PFF analyst has made a rather unusual remark. Moreover, this hasn’t settled well with fans as well as major NFL athletes over Twitter.
San Francisco 49ers’ George Kittle calls out analyst Renner, asking if he can do him a favor.

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.
