Really disappointing in that regard given how bad our OL was until the bye week. Sack numbers are sack numbers. He can get clean up sacks. He can also cause pressures. That sounds like an ideal DL to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hated Justin Smith just because every time I saw a Niners game they would stop keying on him with "Oh boy Justin Smith is just so tough. So tough. Tough guy. Look how his helmet barely fits. Tough guy". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Often times those volume sacks aren't there, but they're playing head up on the OT and also setting a hard EDGE to the outside, often times getting doubled by a TE as well. They're essentially an outside 2 gap player with fast flowing action. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah, people here cream their pants for a guy like Calais or Cam Jordan you can put at LE on early downs and slide inside on passing downs. Another thing people love is, on 3rd down, having a guy like ZaDarius standing up over the IOL to rush inside. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm kind of confused. Justin Smith played in a 4-3 for a bit and no one seemed to mind that he was kind of underwhelming in that scheme. I personally put "hybrid" in there to show that guys like him have a lot of versatility as a 5 tech AND as an OLB. Judon plays both as well.

Note Ragnarok not so subtly trying to sell ZaDarius on his block. Kudos my friend. I mean, if things align the way that I hope, there's a definitive legitimate possibility that I can run an odd/even hybrid front while keeping a lot of the same personnel on the field and simultaneously having the ability to get to the QB without having to blitz as much...while giving exotic looks that are relatively schematically sound and simple.
