Interesting stats about the kid we signed from Université Laval in Québec. Looks like a tremendous athlete for the DE/OLB/EDGE role.
I found a highlight video for Betts. To quote one of the YouTube commenters, "IDK if the competition is weak or if this is Angry Jesus in Cleats!!!!". If he has any coverage skills at all, I can see this kid playing ILB as well.

He looks like he has the instincts for the ball. Always sniffing it out. He might be that good or the comp is that bad none the less he doesn't stop until the play is dead, nice to see that. One thing I did notice is it looks like before he gets the sack, he tries to rip the ball out first.
And he is used to kicking outside and in sh*tty weather.
One thing I notice about his kicks beyond his big leg, is that they both cut and draw, which I hate. Gotta have one consistent ball flight to make it in this league. We'll see what pro coaching can do for him. Barron kicks a pretty draw all day, which is a great foundation to build upon to go with a pretty good leg proven capable of 50+.

I'm not very knowledgeable about kicking technique. What do you mean by "they both cut and draw"?

Like golf shots. For a Rightie, a "cut" or "fade" bends right and a "draw" curves left.
According to Patrick Finley of the Sun-Times, former Arkansas QB Austin Allen has been invited to our upcoming rookie camp. IMO he is a camp body at best.
Here is this weekend's rookie minicamp roster (courtesy of Brad Biggs). If you expand the roster image you will see the signed UDFA class noted as UnFA-19 in the Acquired column. There are also a small number of non-rookies in the list (James Vaughters, Peter Pujals, etc).
