He has been most closely compared to Aaron Donald. A constant disruption. If true, and I suspect it is, he will make everyone's job on the offensive line suddenly easier, and thus everyone's job behind them easier. Couple that with having Breaux back in the mix and we may finally see the potential that many of us expected from the defense.

I think this has a big influence on how our defensive line has underperformed vs. what was coming out of training camp. Taking a spark plug out of an engine and expecting it to run smooth is foolish. It's only 1, but 1 makes a huge difference.
