That’s as a good of a situation for him to be in as any in the league and he still didn’t show high pass rush potential.

Sorry. Not paying $20+ million for that.

So you have to break 10 sacks to have high pass rush potential? Not putting together 3 straight years of 20 plus pressures per game or 9 and 9.5 sack seasons, but that elusive half sack would have put him there.

He's not a speed guy like Ford and he's bigger.

He's the absolute ideal guy to play 43 DE in this system. Next to Jones and in this sytem, he'd be a perennial 12 sack guy.
