That's my concern with a guy like Polite. This thing we ran this year is not going to optimize that skillset. Not saying the scheme won't change, but something to consider.

I agree - if Pettine is back, Polite's strengths are likely minimized. I'm also in the camp of not bringing Pettine back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I kind of feel like judging Pettine's pressure packages this year is like judging Chryst for how he uses QBs. His EDGE players flat out sucked. I'm sure if he had Mack and Floyd you would've seen a much different call sheet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was still a good pressure defense under Pettine. He sacrificed pressure at the edge spots to blitz and was pretty successful with it. Chryst was just flat awful this year.

Both had situations where they find themselves without talent at critical positions and made adjustments to get by. Pettine showed you can get pressure without EDGE talent, unfortunately there is no hiding QB talent in football anymore. That said, my point is, if we keep Pettine is and draft a stud EDGE, he'll use him differently then we saw this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One trick pony. Granted, it is a very good trick, but Landry went in the second round last year (#41) and I really think Polite will last to the last third of the first round. Watch a whole game of Polite and see if you really think he's going to pull that off against NFL tackles on a regular basis. He's good, but he's this years Landry.
