I just don't think he can bend the angle. I think his movements are a bit jankier and less fluid than every other DE on our roster. I think he's a 3-4 DE that we drafted to be a 3-4 OLB for some reason and now are being forced to convert into a 4-3 DE.
If anybody ever hates on the phrase "tweener" ever again, just point to Breeland Speaks.

Entirely possible you're right. I freely admit I don't have much info on Speaks. Obviously, from a Chiefs POV, they'd really like to see him come into his own and earn a starting spot this season.
And if we're completely honest, Frank Clark doesn't look very fluid out there either.
For myself, I've always been an underdog kind of guy, so I figure what the hell, let's jump on the Speaks bandwagon right now and hope for the best.
