Chiefs I'm sick of hearing how Curry is a concern rushing the passer

Red Dawg · 04-19-2009, 10:26 AM

If we keep the pick and he's there, we'd be crazy not to take him. Raji would be fine as well but then that would be 3 1 rdrs we spent on the DL in the last few years. Dorsey last year and Hali 3years ago.

Just because he wasn't given the repsonsibility of going after the QB alot in college doesn't mean he can't do it. No way a LB with his size and speed can't blast up the middle or around the end and get to the QB.

This guys talent is rediculous.

I'm sick of seeing people start a new thread whenever a thought pops in their head, instead of posting in one of the other thousand threads here about Curry.

I'm sick if hearing how a guy with a handful of sacks in 4 years can be taught to rush the passer.

Why do you think some of us were so pissed when that move was announced?

A 3-4 OLB is basically a DE who plays SOME outside linebacker.

It's not that Curry can't rush the passer. It's that we have no idea how he would do when he does that as his primary responsibility. You are assuming he knows how to play the defensive end position because a few times in college, he was asked to blitz. It's not even close to the same thing.

Why do we assume that Curry can't play OLB in a 3-4? Because 100% of 3-4 OLBs played DE in college. Because 15 of 16 of them are over 260 lbs (Curry is about 255). Because we haven't seen Curry do it. Because we will need to train him on something he has never done before. Because we would be drafting him to do something that is not listed as one of his strengths (and he has many of them).

It's not that he can't do it. But the odds are stacked against him, and you don't want to do that with your #3 pick that you're going to be giving millions of dollars to.
