If all we wanted them to do was rush we would just play an extra DE and run a hybrid 5-2, but thats not what we do. They are required to drop at times even in base sets. Go back and watch the game on Saturday and look how many time Vigil was in coverage, it was a pretty good amount.
See the issue here is your pigeonholing Lawson to a position title. The NFL is a game of chess of matchups. Lawson has lined up at all 3 linebacker spots and at DE in training camp to rush the passer lol.
Think about it how many teams sit their Mikes for guys listed at SAM and WILL to play nickle lol.
