[QUOTE="packerbob, post: 296209, member: 1542"] I've seen it too. He is very good at taking on blocks and stopping a running back in his tracks. I also think he has good straight line speed and is effective on a delayed blitz. I wish he would have more opportunities to do it. I know what you mean by having a mean streak. I see it in his tackling. I does look like he's really is trying to put on thr hurt. While he has good straight line speed he lacks in lateral quickness. He has bulked up too much since coming out of college and has become too top heavy. It has affected him in pass coverage(probably why they take him out of the nickel and dime packages now). Also the extra bulk has limited his ability to make plays sideline to sideline. It's a shame because that was his strong suit at Ohio State. I haven't given up on him and hope he isn't traded. He is due 10 million in bonus money next year so I think he will be gone unless if he'd be willing to restructure. They need his physicality especially since Barnett, Burnett and Jones are more finesse type players. [/QUOTE]
