I don't think the coaches would've had him bulk up so much if it affected his speed too much. It seems that he's the future Gilberry in terms of backup RE and kick inside to DT on passing downs.
As for how many DL we carry? Too early to tell. There's no telling with injuries, plus if someone shows some versatility, then they'll probably go lighter and try to hang onto someone else.
He never had much field speed.
He was always going to be a MJ-lite power rusher from the edge.
His money will be made at DT in subpackages. But now he's got Hardison to worry about there.
Just another reason I didn't like that pick. We needed (still do) a legitimate edge threat. We have ignored it since we took the disaster in Moch.
And we passed on Turner, John Brown, Moncrief, Ellis....ugh. Never mind.
