Usually "motor" is a code word for "not athletic". He's plenty athletic AND has a motor too. He's used to playing in a scheme that emphasizes getting pass rush out of the front 4.
I honestly think he's a PERFECT fit for this defense and would love to see him as a Chief.

I really like Nelson but the one big issue I have with him is his struggle to bend and close when he gains the outside shoulder of the tackle. He is very unorthodox there. I think he can learn at least better technique there but I don't think he'll ever have the hip flexion to truly bend the corner.
