CFZ DT Trysten Hill could surprise

I’ve pretty much come to the conclusion that Hill was another Marinelli mistake. His days are probably numbered.

A classic case of people's perceptions costing them the ability to see reality. I have to admit I was surprised how many times Hill stalemated the double and flat out shredded single man blocking in that game. Even I fully expected to see him on roller skates every time he was in because watching the game live it seemed like everybody on the d-line was. I saw nothing of the kind. His upfield penetration forced the back to redirect at least a half dozen runs and when the LBs were in their gaps it led to short gains. Hill might have been our best DL in that game.. He was certainly our best DT. I could see how one could have given the nod to Gallimore or Osa just cause they were credited with more tackles but the both had CRUSHING penalties that kept Niner drives going. Frankly upon rewatch I think the official scorekeeper must have a couple of Hill's tackles to Basham (#92). Hill seemed like he was in on at least 5 tackles to me and he was the primary pass rusher who forced the bad throw that was picked. Yet he was not credited with a pressure or hurry on that play. How do you get into the QB's face, force an errant throw but not have that be a pressure or a hurry or something positive?

Heck you still think Zeke is a top 5 RB and worthy of 18 million a year.

For one of those three years maybe. The rest is on him.



Why not? Watkins in one year made more of a difference than Hill has in three.



And Watkins can do that, unlike Hill.

- Watkins has not had to endure an ACL and recovery like Hill has had to do.
also Watkins is not a pass rusher. And the pass rushers are premium vs NFL passing world.

Which game was this? I have them all recorded and would like to go back and find this play you are referring to.. Unless of course it came out of the same part of your body you fart from..

If Hill can go out and earn the job great but he has to show it.

- i can only recall Hill's having the ACL injury, ..otherwise what other injuries could you be referring to ..?

- We probably could not name one DT that managed to play well vs the run in the playoffs. We had two guys trying to come back from lengthy injuries in Gallimore, Hill.
Osa was a rookie who despite being very durable all season long, every game, clearly showed signs of wearing down at season's end.
A great offseason program and far more effective support around him should greatly benefit him more so.

- And having no Gallimore, Hill in first half, forcing him to play much more reps. and only the likes of Hamilton did not help matters,
Watkins is just what he is. Barely decent vet 1 tech, which you'd need to have much better.

- Speaking of Gallimore, the play vs Washington where he flat slung the starting center outta the way and penetrated into th backfield for a QB sack. is why people
are so high on Gallimore... We know it's in his ability to be that kind of player, we also know it's about consistency and putting his entire game to work,
in every game, instead of one play for every 4 or 5 games.

- We won't be able to seen none of these guys at their potential until they all have a relatively healthy year.

Hill has .5 sacks in his career what makes him a pass rusher?

Watkins outplayed all of them if for nothing else than consistency.

Clubbing a C off the snap is a good move but I don't question Gallimore's upper body strength. I question his quickness and anchor. He got washed a lot and showed little ability to disengage.

Watkins is a dime a dozen bargain dollar vet. There is not anything superlative that he is the biggest impact DT we have.

in a career that has been shorten by ACL .. or do ya'll prefer him to rush the passer on crutches, one leg, a walker or a portable wheel chair ?

Hill isn't a pass rusher either though.

And he outplayed them. He actually stood up to double teams occasionally. Can you say the same about Osa, Hill, or Gallimore?
