Dang!!.....This guy is a force and a difference maker on the D-line.....Watched him in games this past season where he just took over games in the same way Warren Sapp used to.....At times was unblockable....Big pick up here!!

Yeah he was a beast and a huge reason for their D's improvement, particularly in the run game. He also offers more pass rush juice than Star ever had. He's older but he's an UPGRADE on Star, not just a replacement. 

He's actually a year younger than star as of right now anyway.

Yesterday was so non-stop for me, that I never got a chance to chime in. 

I've always like Poe. Wanted the team to draft him. While his career hasn't been all pro, he is definitely a force to be reckoned with. 

I like/love this addition.

I imagine they have to be playing Butler at DE sometimes. The dude is never gonna see the field.

DT rotate quite a bit, Short and Star played around 60% of the snaps last season, so theoretically Butler should play 40% which isn’t a waste of a player.

Not sure how you don't understand that he was the BPA at the time of the pick. 

Argue all you want to. He has an impact in the rotation, that once again, you fail to appreciate.

 

I never said he wasn’t the BPA at the time... I’m saying he isn’t producing like a 1st round pick should. I honestly think it’s hilarious that all you want from a first round pick is to impact the rotation. Could you set the bar any lower? Atleast he made the team I guess? But hey as long as you keep up the supercilious attitude you’re always be right!

A depth pick who was a healthy scratch multiple times last year. I love seeing the contrived justifications from the usual suspects when I'm regards to Butler.

I rag on Shaq, but he at least shows an occasional flash. Butler is just..there.

Waste of space and a pick, but his cap hit is at least tolerable compared to other DTs on the market.

Ive been saying this for a long time. you dont draft a guy in the first round to be a rotational player and never become a Starter. Derrick Henry shouldve been the pick. man i was hoping for Henry in 2016

Clearly you just don’t appreciate anything he does for this team!

You are the biggest 20/20 poster Ive seen.  Stop

Lmao. Wait so how do you grade draft picks? By how good they were in college? Since we can’t judge them based on what they’ve done in the nfl, or as you like to say “hindsight”.

I'm  sorry, when did I say that's all that I want?

Please quote me. I'll be waiting.
