WE better hope he does...we need a new superstar at OLB.
The tools he has,didn't just surface....they've been there.You're right in the fact that I hope and feel he will excel,but there's no discounting what he can do....especially with his CFL credentials.I mean 16 and 23 sacks back to back in '07 and '08,with countless tackles for losses I'll take anyday of the week....situational or not.Now with #55 on his way out,we'll truly get to see what he(Wake)is made of.The kid's got a motor that's always in overdrive.I'm excited as hell,that he's wearing our colors,and not someone elses.At least he's got a track record.We have no way of knowing what we'll get out of our draft.But this is just my opinion,and I think he's gonna be a MONSTER!!!
Depends what you mean by breakout year. Will he have +10 sacks? More then likely. His ability to get to the QB hasn't been in question.
Im more curious to see if he can become an everydown player(better against the run and pass).
