People expect him to be an all pro before taking a snap in a real game . . . u are right . . . he has done extremely well for his first camp but this was expected from me because the guy just has the work ethic and physical tools to succeed. As hit and miss as some of these guys go . . . the scouts nailed it on the head . . . he will be a BEAST in the running game . . . and he may struggle at first in the pass pro . . . but he is quick and nimble enough to get his technique better and be a beast in the pass pro on the left side as well. He may give up more sacks than Joe Thomas does this year . . . that I'm almost certain will happen . . . but factor in the number of long runs he opens up this year for Ricky and Ronnie . . . he may indeed have a better year than Thomas did last year . . . if u factor in more than sacks.
