A reminder to kick things off:

Cant wait for the first preseason game to see what the 2nd, 3rd, and camp bodies can do in a game. I think BB and the coaches will have a difficult time cutting this roster down to 53.

If he can just be immovable against a double team, that creates a lot of favorable opportunities for the style of defense we play.

That's all we need from him.

Well this is good news considering how bad it seemed for him yesterday.

That's all we need from him.

From watching film on him, which I'll post some of it later, he does more than just handle double teams. He will beat it at times, force the RB to bounce outside and will pursue him from sideline to sideline.

I don't think he was a pass rusher by design. Imo. Prior to every snap you can see him scanning the backfield and sometimes shifting gaps prior to the snap. He's looking to plug running lanes and force the OL to account for him.

I have seen him get pushed back a few times but he will still find away to get in on the tackle. He doesn't give up on plays.

I'm not predicting the next Wilfork but am saying the NT position will not be the weak link in the DL this season.

No mention of Richards and his draft position?

A little Chatham shade?
