One can only hope...

After I saw Marcus throw around a speedy RB around in the pre season game vs SD, then man handle Saquan Barkley in open space vs Giants in a real game ... I was convinced at how physically gifted he is.

The kid has Julius Peppers/Jason Pierre Paul ability. Stay healthy and he's a terror coming off the edge.

Hopefully he comes around faster than Mark Ingram did.

Oh geez, no kidding - The Ingram selection cost us, not factoring bountygate possibility, a first and a second round pick and he didn't have a 1000RuYd season until after his five year rookie contract expired...

I mean, yeah statistically you are correct but Ingram was in a backfield that consisted of himself, Chris Ivory, Pierre Thomas and Darren Sproles for 2-3 years.

Granted it took a few years for him to gain confidence and get comfortable, but the 1k rushing thing was also due to Payton's system and a crowded backfield.

Got a good feeling about Marcus, when healthy he was the best "physical" athlete on our D line.

There are two types of 100M positions in the NFL. A QB and a pass rusher.

Worth 2 1st rounders? ... I'd say yes. Why? Because our current coaching staff/Executive Scouting dept thought he was worth 2 1st rounders and to date, he hasn't done anything to prove them wrong. The toe injury was a mild "set back".

For the 1st time in a long time, we have a solid defensive line across the board. Why question how we acquired the talent? Did it hurt the team in some way?

IMO the answer is no.
