Shit, so does/did Jon Baldwin.
I'll be happy with average NT play from him next year.

I was never high on Baldwin. I loved the Poe pick from the start.
Baldwin's issues are difficult to fix. He runs shitty routes (which are more difficult to coach than people want to pretend) and he has a shitty on-field work ethic to want to get better. He's not coachable.
Poe's problems have largely been technique and they are easily fixable, but they will take time. And unlike Baldwin, he has the work ethic to get better. And Poe has a rare physical talent at nose tackle, which is he could become a rare every down nose tackle, which is INCREDIBLY valuable in a league where spread offenses are exposing 1-dimensional nose tackles.
