Re: 2013 LIVE DRAFT THREAD
Reading about this guy the thing that jumped out at me was the downside as a pass rusher. But reading more I think the idea is as you say, to tie up two or three guys so our other guys can get to the QB. Hopefully it works out.

I didn't watch many Georgia games this past year, but the few I did (Missouri, Alabama in the SECCG), this guy really stood out to me. I remember how disruptive he was in both of those games. I am excited about this strategy, especially given our cap situation. |
