Dorian Williams in the Hoecht/Lorax role?
Richard Noggin replied to transplantbillsfan's topic in The Stadium Wall
Groot lacks the violence and explosion you're looking for in this unique role. He can be stout af and disruptive at times, but he doesn't have the combat hands and twitchy flash needed to cause chaos. He was the immediate replacement for Hoecht last week, and it wasn't terrible. He's got some tools, but maybe needs to get away from the length of NFL OTs to get going. Jackson has much to learn about pad level and awareness, but he flashes the kind of frenetic, combative length you admire in a pass rusher. Obviously, he's an explosive physical specimen. We've seen Bills Day Two defensive draft picks show steep improvement after year one (Bernard and Bishop are recent examples). He's got the tools to invest some patience in.
