Blue chip like who? John Henderson? He had 6.5 sacks in 2002, but other than that, he hasn't done that much. This season, he has 8 tackles in 2 games. He plays next to Marcus Stroud, one of the best DT's in the game.
Is Sims underproducing? Absolutely. Is he a complete and utter bust? Not a chance.
FWIW, he looked CONSIDERABLY better next to Siavii than he did next to Dalton. When Dalton was in the game, Sims almost always got a double-team.
