Bruschi was smaller. In his prime he could cover, blitz the QB, make picks and stop the run. When Bru couldn't get into the same zip code as a RB, he wisely retired. I remember the video. I see this as a positive for HT.

Love HT, it could be better for him as a LB but I always loved his versatility to line up as a defensive end (see sack in the Superbowl against Atlanta when he caused a fumble).
The draft implications are that they will need to add another DE, I hoped they would anyway but now it is a done deal.
I’m sure he didn’t play a step slow to manage himself. If you are a step slow a lb you get destroyed by a 320 lb OL.
I thought it was pretty obvious that he was still not 100% earlier in the season and as normally happens here the piling on turned the perception that his 85% was 15% of his normal healthy self.
