Youtube is blocked at work, but if that is a DBZ video, then yes, yes that is what I was alluding to. 

The Southpark Wal--Mart episode when they break the heart of wal-mart and the guy starts stomping screaming this isn't even my final form... this is.

Seattle is the game we drafted him for.

Shaq isn't even in his final form yet. 

Dude still has a season or two until he bulks up to LBer size. He's already popping guys left and right, imagine him doing that with an additional 20-30 lbs behind his frame... 

Scary.

Hes listed as only 7lbs lighter than Luke and TD.

The thought that he needs more muscle is a fallacy.  

Hes got to get better in his pass coverage and recognition skills.

When he just reacts hes on point but having to think on the field puts him in bad positions sometimes.

I wonder how close he is to the 500 snaps that Ron said Shaq would need before it started to click for him?  Regardless Shaq is looking like he will be Davis 2.0 in the near future.

I agree.  He was drafted for his speed and bulking up would slow him down due to his height.

 

He's already laying people out, no need to kill them.

A whole extra off-season with TD and Luke will do wonders for the kid, he's already light years ahead of a typical rookie in the sense of football instinct...he is going to be scary good.
