We'll have to agree to disagree. He has problems getting off blocks when he gets lazy; but I've seen him get off more than his share of blocks over the years...when he is properly focused and motivated.

Discipline, not ability, is his real short-coming IMHO. Hopefully that's what Haley's demotion of him to third string was all about....because properly focused and motivated, he's a very capable all-around LB. Herm just accepted his lazy ass attitude and lack of focus....because of the occasional flashes he shows, and in the end he did DJ a horrible disservice because of it.
