He's either rushing standing up or in his stance, but it is ALWAYS from the right side. Murphy and Hubbard would do just fine at LDE if we had a guy in the middle that pushes the IOL back into the QBs face. We need a guy who is a three-down player too. Not sure if that comes via free agency or the draft, but I would list IDL as a TOP need this off-season.
I agree on the need for interior DL and not just pass rushing. I don't mind BJ Hill as a starter if he has quality depth behind him. He makes plays but he's better as part of a rotation, imo. Replacing Reader . . . and Ogunjobi at this point, is at or near the top of off-season needs.
That's the amazing thing about Hendrickson. He is pretty much always going against another team's best Tackle and is still putting up big numbers. I absolutely love watching future HOFer Maxx Crosby play, but he's almost always lined up over the RT. Trey's shoulder is my only concern with his play. I don't care if he's a liability against the run, he's a pass rusher and not all of them can be Bruce Smith-like and be strong against both.
