He was the real play maker on that line, and was huge for that defense making the jump from joke to decent. He should also get way more credit than his stats give him, he's the guy that was always affecting the play even if he didn't get to make the tackle or sack.
He definitely has work to do, but i see him as a perfect fit next to geno long term. He can get into the backfield and stop the run. Seems like a smart and decent character kid as well. Has good strength and his size should allow him to get good leverage.
He's could be the well rounded DT to pair with Geno that we've all wanted for quite some time now. And if Geno went down again our line might still stand a chance with Billings there. I think he'd be a nice piece of the rotation in year one, and then be ready to take over for Peko as starter next season and really take off.
Exactly, that is why i even started watching Baylor on Defense was cause of all the hype Oakman got.
The dude in the middle was the man, without question.
