He was absolutely disruptive on tape and consistently got pressure in 2020. It’s all on tape, and just about every scouting report mentions this. DJ, Zierlein, Brugler etc. have all said the same thing. This is reflected by his pass rush win rate and PFF grades (I know I know PFF) as well. The lack of production is 100% misleading, which is why I think it’s silly to stop there.
Despite the difference in production, nobody will tell you he didn’t clearly get better from 2019 to 2020.
The issue is it was a weird year and he’s still new to football. He’s not an athlete playing football though. He’s definitely a football player and has improved while demonstrating he has the intangibles to make a huge jump in the NFL.

I'm always leery of no production, but at the end of the first, you're not getting a clean prospect. It is what it is.
Figure out what he does well and ask him to do that.
