10. Ejuan Price – Pittsburgh

Ejuan Price isn’t a name that’s going to jump off of the page at you, he’s likely a player that’s going to go in the later rounds, perhaps around the 4th-6th round, but he’s a solid value at that point in the draft.

Price is 6’1″, 255 pounds and fits as a 3-4 outside linebacker very well. He’s a fast edge rusher who could suit well as a 3-4 OLB or even could transition to a middle linebacker if needed.

He was a force to be reckoned with during his senior season at Pitt, especially in the pass rush. He finished the season with 45 tackles, 13 sacks, 23 tackles for a loss, three forced fumbles and one broken up pass.

Price has had a slight injury history, missing all of the 2014 season with a chest muscle injury, however he should be fine, and in round four, five, or six, he’s a good value.
