Schobel is a good DE and is above average, but he is no where close to being a bonafide top 10 DE. Players like Freeney and Peppers get double teamed every single play, and sometimes even tripple teamed. Schobel on the other had rarely gets double teamed and when he does he just runs himself out of the play. I like Schobel alot though, and if he ever develops an inside move to go along with his outside rush he could end up being a number 1 DE. Right now however, I see him as one of the top #2 DE's.
