The guy is fast, sure, but in that video, had the guard dropped into passpro or been blocking a DT, the inside would not have been as cleanly available as it was.  Again, I'm simply looking at one video, I haven't seen a practice to make a more in depth analysis.

Those opposing interior OL are probably going to have their hands full trying to deal with Short, Poe, and company at DT.

I don't disagree, but even if the interior linemen are otherwise occupied, there won't be a clear path to the QB inside like that.  He was only 3-3.5 yards behind the LOS when he turned inside.  If he had pushed the tackle another couple yards upfield and then made the turn, it's more likely there would be a lane.

Again, it's just one rep.  I am encouraged by all the reports we're hearing on the guy, but I want to see things that look more like actual NFL reps before I go all giddy.  :)

    • Team is dangerous right now, all four lines are contributing and the speed at which the guys play at is tremendous.
    • And every nfl player wannabe tries to up their draft position through things like the combine and theyre all basically lying though those drills theyve practiced hundreds of times that have little bearing on if theyre a good football player. The pro days are even worse. All you have to do is dupe 1 team. Is it right? No. But until teams put more emphasis on college tape vs. What they did in shorts with no defense it'll happen every year. I doubt there is a single player that wouldn't try anything to up their draft prospects.  Young had years of tape and that shouldve been what the decision was based on. Not a scale and throwing in shorts.  ( btw I think the combine and pro days are 90% a waste of time) Young has it financially made already. It's up to him if he wants to be a good football player too. I think the benching was the best thing that could've happened to him. It remains to be seen if it was enough
    • This.  Honest introspection on his behalf would have seen that size and strength were his biggest weaknesses. He looks no different. With the programs in the NFL, he could have come back to camp 10 lbs of muscle heavier. Easily. If had done so, it would have been reported on. It would have been the hottest story…. But we never saw anything of the sort, so it probably never happened.  He showed improvement this last game, likely from Andy’s tutelage. He has to show something VERY special to close the season out to change my thinking on him… like 4 game winning streak with a clutch 4th quarter comeback. Then maybe.
