This is his year...if he can stay healthy. I understand the desire for greater impact from a second rounder, but if he gets 7-9 sacks this year rotating at RDE and knocks down a few balls while playing DT (maybe tipping one for an INT), he will show the potential that they hoped for three years ago.
Remember the Bengals don't hit on 100% of their picks. No one does. I won't kill the Bengals for taking a guy with his college tape, and the dreaded "upside". Competition improves the breed, and MJ suddenly was a lot better at run defense, put on about 20 lbs of muscle, and didn't want to come off the field.
The guy has 12 tackles in his entire career and you think 7-9 sacks as part of the rotation is possible? Other than the fact it is the preseason and anything is hypothetically possible, what would lead you to believe this?
