He isn't but we could do more with guys like him instead of fat nose guard in the middle. That's what I'm saying. Change the scheme to one that would really suit Wink's aggressiveness.

So field players that aren’t effective at getting to the qb just for lulz. Sounds like a scheme problem.
I promise you without a shadow of a doubt, that if this team had a Quality DT who was less of an anchor and more of a penetrator, he would be played to rush the passer.
It’s a talent issue, not a scheme issue. We are past the days of turning away talented players because they aren’t scheme fits.

Don't we basically do that with all the sub-packages that he uses? If we need more pressure up the middle we have the bull rushers necessary to do that. Finding a player that can anchor and rush the passer is one in a million.
yeah, Aaron Donald's don't come around that often.

It's not, Bama alone churned out 3 in last 4 years.

That's why I said Jones.
I was a big fan of Jones coming out. Drafted him in the Forum Mock.

I wish we had Jones too because he'd be a great 5-tech for us, but we prioritized other positions in past drafts. I'm pretty sure we're going CB early in this next draft too. It'll probably be CB, OT, OG, EDGE in some order depending on if we re-sign Judon and Pierce
definitely wouldn't surprise me if we went after any of those positions, and CB without Jimmy next season and Carr in 2021 is a need.

And maybe the best of the bunch coming out this year with Raekwon Davis

Nah. He's OK but not that level

I’ll have to freshen up on the film as I haven’t watched him since he opted out of the draft, but I recall him being an extremely high ceiling guy who needs to work on some things, just can’t remember those things lol

He will end up 5T in pros, I think

I was also at the game and the atmosphere was incredible. Kinda died down a bit in the 3rd, but the place was going nuts in the 4th when we needed stops. Our section also tried to get some "bulls**t" chants going for some of the calls lol
He had opportunities to run so many more.. idk if thats good or bad.
That’s down to the cardinals game plan - they sold out to stuff our interior running game and it left the RPO and zone-read qb keeps open all day but at times we insisted on running into that stacked front
Should be noted that run defence looks like the strongest aspect of that cardinals defence

unless we spread it out with no RB in the backfield, it looked like we faced 8 or 9 man boxes the whole game
It’s like the cardinals downplayed Lamar’s passing like lots of casual pundits against the dolphins
