Michael pierce is now my front runner to break out, yes even more than Urban, I think his performance was every bit as good as urban just he didn't hit home as often. He was incredibly disruptive, I mean tossing guys aside like rag dolls on every single snap, he made brandon williams look like a JAG. Michael pierce could become the best NT in the league this year and I think he's the designated interior rusher now as well, if he has the stamina then coaches will never be able to rotate him out.
While it would be awesome, it would also be somewhat demoralizing of sorts to know we would then have the best NT in the NFL when it wasn't the NT we just made the highest paid in the league. I am not a hater on the contract we gave Williams and it'd be a great problem to have, but makes me wonder where those funds could've been allocated elsewhere.
You could also argue that the signing of Brandon Williams allows Michael pierce to do what he does - it's a chess piece situation where with Brandon Williams at 3t, Michael piece becomes a handful - it's why I didn't entirely agree with filmstudy when he said Brandon Williams wasn't useful at 3tech because it's a jigsaw where the pieces fit together on that defensive front
But I'm just hypothesising here
