He did one thing - he attempted to bull rush. And he's nowhere near strong enough to do that effectively. I can't recall when he got his sacks but I'd bet you anything it was either a blown blocking assignment or a coverage sack where he just eventually slid off and chased a QB down.
He was terrible last season. Just god-awful. And he showed no physical tools or technique that suggest he won't be terrible going forward. If you stuck his ass in the draft this season he'd be a 5th round pick.
Say he was out of position if you want (because he was) but that doesn't excuse the fact that even when he got into a blocker, which is where he will ALWAYS be as a 4-3 DE, he simply had no plan when he got there or no ability to do anything about it.
If you still think he'll be a good player it's based on nothing but blind faith and hope because he provided absolutely nothing last season to support that. There were street free agents that could've given us more than Breeland Speaks did last season.

If he was terrible then what was Dee Ford?
Your bias is showing.
