Hebert19 Posted September 17, 2023 Share Posted September 17, 2023 When von comes back I'd love to see groot used like he was in college. Line him up over center next to Ed or Jones and bring von and Floyd off edge. His length alone would take away passes and he has the skills to beat the center. Not saying he's like micah or myles but he could be used same way. He was a lot in Miami. 2 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LABILLBACKER Posted September 17, 2023 Share Posted September 17, 2023 We're still getting only marginal pressure up the middle. Jimmy G had several opportunities today to step up into an open cavity. I would love to see Miller/Floyd set the edge while Groot attacks the middle w/ Oliver/Jones. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrags Posted September 17, 2023 Share Posted September 17, 2023 I’d rather put packages in like a 4-3 and have Von at the other OLB spot where he blitzes, or maybe Floyd could take that spot and could either blitz or cover. He’s covered before and he’s not extremely terrible. And we all know he can rush the passer 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wppete Posted September 17, 2023 Share Posted September 17, 2023 I’d like to see that. I think Groot can do it. He can be a menace just like Micah Parsons. But Parsons is on another level, I think he’s the best defensive player in the NFL right now by far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

78thealltimegreat Posted September 18, 2023 Share Posted September 18, 2023 When Von gets back you have the possibility of lining up him and Greg on 3rd and long on one side with Floyd coming off the other. The Bills have a legit chance to have an old Giants NASCAR package when they had 4 legit pass rushers after you on 3rd down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe when Miller gets back. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MAJBobby Posted October 2, 2023 Share Posted October 2, 2023 PLaying as his is right now he is on pace for 12.75 sacks (career best) 17 QB hits (career best) 17 TFL (career best) 4.25 FF (career best) not really too much to say how Groot is being used currently. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harder to tee off to stop a guy that you can't pigeonhole to one type of move. I'd like him to bat more balls in air then snagging the int before any other player nearby is tall enough to win a jump ball vs Groot. Good luck with that lol.

We're going to rotate guys anyways. Might as well throw in some new looks and wrinkles in certain situations to give the opponent even more to think about. Is the opposite of the all DE "NASCAR" line: Oliver/Jones/Ford/Jonathan? Edited October 2, 2023 by DrDawkinstein Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
