Jalyx Hunt is a really interesting prospect. Former DB turned into a stud pass rusher. He's raw, but has a lot of upside. Good pick for the future.

Jalyx Hunt is such a fun gamble as an upside project to work with around pick 100 so of course it's the #Eagles who grab him. Was going to be on my #Giants shortlist for Day 3. Freakish athlete (check out his pick six from last year).
Jalyx Hunt is my EDGE12. Ultimate upside. Superior athlete with great size and athleticism. Dominant at level, blows past OL. Very raw. Needs time to develop. Doesn't understand leverage or hand usage. #Eagles take the upside #HallamAnalysis
