Yep. People on this board expect DT's to be like Geno and put up 10-12 sacks a year which isn't realistic.

Billings job is to eat space and let the LB's make plays and to occupy blockers and to make an occasional tackle.

He grades out at 70.0 on PFF or as the #54 DI. He's about an Average DI.

IF our LB's all graded out at 70...we'd be so much better.
