He made a few plays on Sunday - showed his potential. Just wanted to give him a positive mention on this board for a change.
 
He's a guy who should of NEVER been a candidate of bulking up to be a pure dlineman, I mean he was GASSED on that run back, he's is clearly having problems maintaining that extra weight . . . I get it, #3 pick, you want him on the field 24/7 to justify that . . . but right now, he'd be killer in a Von Miller role as an OLB, while you have Misi manning the middle and Jelani in coverage. In that role he could rush the passer and still be dynamic enough to cover a TE. We took away is biggest strength, his speed, and the adjustment to this new size has clearly been affecting his overall play.

It was good to see him make a few plays though, hope to see more from him going forward.

Agreed..He was supposed to be incredibly fast, and he was cought from behind by their 3rd string TE...I do like him rushing the passer off the edge and covering TEs..he even manned up against megatron on a play yesterday...i think coyle is asking for him to be too versatile...lets have him stick to getting pressure on the QB and covering TEs...I think he can do it in his natural weight pre-PED haha but he looked solid
