People are going gaga over his sack numbers, but again, those are inflated by his coaches giving him favorable matchups and his habit of guessing at the snap count, which causes him to also be called off sides a lot.
He's a good prospect, imo, but he's a lot closer to the late first-early second DE's than Allen or Garrett.
Nice post, thanks for this. We just need a pass rushing LDE opposite of Dunlap and our D-line i think can get
back to what it was at the very least. Allen and Garrett i am going to need to study up more on. I know Allen
is big and versatile. He might be the guy we need.
Garrett i need to know more about...
The season isn't even over yet so i am trying to start studying.

Yeah, those guys don't come around often. I just don't like how our coaches pigeon hole us into certain body types.
Mack and Miller play in a 4-3 pretty often. Not like you have to have 6'6" Ends in a 4-3.
