Sonny Styles NFL Debut (preseason)

[jazzcat22]

As an Ohio State fan, I think taking Styles over Downs was insane. They really weren't on the same level as far as impact.

As an OSU fan as well. I tend to agree. Styles benefited from some very good surrounding players. Downs being one of them.
However, I still think he will be a very good player for a long time in the NFL.

Downs will impact Dallas defense more so than Styles does Washington.

He looked terrible mostly in these clips I just watched.

I agree. I think Styles will be a good player for a while. Downs looked like a generational player at OSU.

Can you remind me why we care about Sonny Styles?

The thing about his size and measurables is they are impressive in college….in the nfl everyone is that size lol

There are NOT that many lb's that run in the 4.3's

This is the thing about parsing words. It’s obvious when you do it.

You said what you intended, poorly, but were still understood.

“The thing about his size and measurables is they are impressive in college….in the nfl everyone is that size lol”

Even allowing you to parse your words, everyone in the NFL is not 6’4”, 245, especially anyone not playing on the offensive or defensive line.

But proceed.

The point was his measurables won’t get him anywhere in the NFL BY themselves. A very simple point you would’ve understood if you wasn’t so argumentative like a female. You argue over nonsensical things too. Just be arguing to argue. Arguing over a Commander too at that.

I said everyone is his size. But think about his 40 time. Most linebackers probably run what? A 4.5 to 4.8? That time is made up of how fast you can dissect or process play. The edge he has in college isn’t there in the NFL. From everything I saw pre draft he’s a smart kid. I think he’s gonna be ok just not now or anytime soon.

The entire rookie class will have to, including Downs. From OSU to Washington and Dallas? big learning curve

Ohio state played dang near nfl style defense. It wont take long.

You see how it is speaking with that joke of a poster?
he talks real fly until you put him in his place.

Bro I’m not gonna lie I never realized it until recently. He’s arguing over some of the weirdest stuff. I could say Cowboys suck and he won’t say nothing but if I make a statement about someone random like Styles he has a lot to say. Then when you put him in his place he will blame you for him not understanding. Nuts lol.

 

[Hawkeye0202]

Not going to lie, Styles was my first choice, and yes, even over Downs (positional priority) but very happy we drafted Downs.

 

[Rockport]

He is a bigtime player

Not yet he isn’t.

Means nothing if you can't stick your nose in there and fill gaps with physicality.

Dallas needs to run right at that guy.

 

[Rockport]

So Styles is dumb, and Washington made a mistake? LOL, c',mon

I thought you were a Philthy fan but turns out it’s Washington! Explains all the negativity.

 

[Rockport]

Jimmy Johnson famously said, "If I draft another dumb player, hit me in the head with a hammer."

Redsfan doesn't understand this.

There’s a lot he doesn’t understand. Looks like he’s a Commanders err Commanders fan.

OSU plays pro style offense and defense and plays in the 2nd toughest conference in the NCAA as far as football is concerned. Is there a news blackout up there in Canada?

I imagine you don’t win many arguments with anyone, particularly “females”.

If by females you mean women then no. I don’t argue with women. Learned a long time ago you won’t win that battle and a man has no business arguing with a woman.

You feeling yourself lately though you must need some attention.

It looked like he took himself out of a lot of these plays taking a different gap, angle, etc. He's a rookie and it's preseason so wouldn't read much into it at this point.

Well I a lot of people said that he was a sure thing day 1 impact player. I did not see that yesterday and it appeared he played a lot.

There is a reason Downs did not play a lot. That is because we already know who he is.

He is a bigtime player
