No.  His injuries and running past the QB was his problems in Buffalo.

People forget just how many times his rush lanes and undisciplined sellout pass rushes cost us massive plays that lost several games. I think von is probably a good teammate in the locker room but his play style since his injury was and still is extremely selfish on a team that was so close to getting a one seed. He was all about his sack stats, knowing full well the cost for the team of taking egregious angles and losing contain. Obviously im not saying hes the sole reason we lost those games but ill never forget watching him sellout several times to get Jalen hurts and with his angle ended up 4 yards behind hurts and hurts lightly jogging to pick up huge 1st downs to keep drives alive. 

Bosa definitely sells out for pass rush pretty often but you will see him hesitate and string out rbs to the sideline occasionally, von never did that, or at least never put in 100% effort to do it.

For all the focus on pass rushing DT's we draft stiff pocket collapsing DE's not bendy, twitchy pass rushers.  Most of the DE's we draft are 25 pounds away from being the same DT's we draft.

Many years ago we had the worst offensive line in the NFL. Many fans claimed it was the "scheme." Then they hired Mouse McNally  a famed OL coach. The line either stayed the same or got worse.

 

What I learned from this is that talent is even more important than scheme. 

 

Agree.  Talent and scheme win SBs.  Beane gets a lot of flack for players not performing to their draft status in the 1st round, but I would guess every other GM in the National Football League has drafted similar players but earlier in the 1st round.  Plus, drafting at the end means you get leftovers.  Do we really think we can do better than Beane?

Hoecht had 2 sacks and 6 pressures in his first game. The most pressures of anyone in the game. 
 

Having him in there with Bosa, Rousseau, Deon Walker is helping a lot.
