You see, not everything is black and white in this world. No way, the commercial breaks and other stoppages are not worth it. I did watch the game last night live and it was so painful. Tried to flip between the Bills game and the Browns game, but the damn commercial breaks seemed to be timed so they were together. All he has to do is stop clapping so much, it's silly, he's supposed to be a professional. I personally hope he claps extra and dedicated it to you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe he can try harder, develop arthritis, and his DR tells him he has to stop clapping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was another ACC linebacker with a freakish size/speed combination who went in the first round. Manny Lawson 6'5" 240lb. 4.43 40 124 .0 Broad Jump 10.5 college sacks (12 games) Tremaine Edmunds 6'5" 253 lb. 4.54 40 117.0 Broad Jump 10 college sacks (26 games) Yeah, it definitely jumps out a bit, although the Edwards is a bit bigger, Lawson had better numbers in college but Tremaine may have grow into a better player with time. And even though Lawson wasn't a world beater in the NFL, he still had a productive 10 year career as a starter. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Max Fischer Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 He dominated college ball. He just turned 20. He plays one one of the games most demanding positions. He starts on what could be a very good defense. He played his very first NFL preseason game. I’m shocked he’s not an immediate superstar. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His true strength might be the ability to bounce him to multiple spots once he gets some seasoning. He wasn't drafted as a thumper and I don't think he will ever be one. Even if he isn't HOF worthy, I think that he will have a very productive career. 12 minutes ago, Max Fischer said: He dominated college ball. He just turned 20.

I agree with everything you said other than dominated college ball. He didn't really dominate like Roquan and his sack total is a little disappointing for an edge rusher of that size, but I think his size and speed will translate even better to the NFL with coverage responsibilities. Usually the dominate college guys seem to be thumpers who don't work out at the pro level. Still very young and has a ton of time to develop.

He was pushed around and made just one tackle in the game. Speed and aggressive play is great but when you can't muscle up and make plays it's bad news. I didn't like his game at all against a real NFL offense. First ever NFL game for a 20 year old.

Exactly, his career should be judged on one game that is essentially glorified practice ... He was jumpy and appeared to be nervous. When he gets experience that part of the situation will settle down and he can play instinctively. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And he fell extremely short of those expectations in the first scrimmage. He'll get better but...it is what it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
