When he gets beat, it's badly.  To me he either doesn't trust his feet, so he's predetermining a lot of his set ups.  And when he guess right, he looks just fine.  Or maybe he has good reason not to trust him and they just aren't that good.  Before I thought it was because of his lack of strength he had to overcommit to getting position at the snap and that would leave him vulnerable to someone quick coming back inside with a straight shot to the QB.But he gained a bunch of weight, strength doesn't seem to be the issue.  larry said he had great feet, but maybe they're only great when he guesses right on where to be and aren't good enough to feel a player out and go where he needs to be.  Or maybe he's just slow in putting it all together? in the end it's still the same.  He's vulnerable more than a handful of plays where they set him up one way and go back inside with a straight line to the QB, and that's bad.so he's probably too slow to play in the slot</blockquote>
