It's to be an anchor and take on two blockers freeing others to make a play, if he can push the pocket back on passing plays while doing so it's an added bonus.. Do 1 techniques in 4-3's get stats sometimes? Sure, but it's not their main job. The best indicator of his success this year will be the defensive pass rushing and run stopping stats when he is on the field versus when he is off.
I only created this thread because I believe there are 2 DT's ahead of him at his specific position and even with a fully functional rotation don't see him getting into actual games as fast as people on here would like him to. Still think he is a stud and is going to be great, but I don't think he is going to come in and destroy the league like some on here make it sound. Just think the high expectations will be snubbed by the coaching staff early on. jmo
