Watch his tape. Turners take downs are good when chasing, really sketchy inside the pocket. Very reachy/ grabby. Fine vs college qb's becomes a whiff at pro level.
Hopefully Flores changes that. But Turner isnt a sure thing, time will tell if hes coachable.
Hunter- 6-5 260. Turner 6-3 240.
Hunters body famously adrian peterson chisle from granite.
Turner has a ways to go to be that...
Draft bio weakness per zeurlein.
Below-average anchor to prevent being displaced by force.
Needs better play strength to improve block take-on.
Doesn’t always play with ideal urgency when not directly challenged.
Takes too many shots at winning rush with speed-to-power.
Needs to become a more skilled hand-fighter at the top of the rush.
Rush is currently missing instincts and counters associated with high sack production.

Turner is going to have to work at it to become Hunter. Turner was a top prospect olb in this draft. Most of this class had 2nd- at best grades. But, its the D version of qb. Players get overdrafted bc every time wants One, if not 2 TJ Watts/ Nick Bosas.
Im not sure Turner is even a starter year 1.
Used in rotation? Yes. Top of the depth chart? Probably not
I would gave rather had Barton at 23. But, they had to give flores something. Flores specialty is lber. So if Turner doesnt become a + starter. Its on him.
Hunter was a 3x all-pro. I dont see turner at that level.
