Their DL pinches very tight to the OL.Their, and SS, main job is taking away the run. They also don't place their DE's out wide in an 8 or 9 techique like almost all teams do which gives DE's space to accelerate. SS had OL hands all over him on passing downs and at least 75% of the time he was doubled or chipped and still had tons of pressures and hits.This kid is a freak and the NFL is so better sited for him because you simply can't teach size, strength and athletic ability.
I don't think you can emphasize this enough. I will be very interested to see how he does when he gets turned loose in a true pass rush type setting.
He's already a very good run defender, I can only imagine the improvement he will make with his tools at the NFL level. His speed and first step are an instant upgrade to what we have on the edge right now.
