Don't expect much from him till next year. He needs a complete offseason and training camp to get strength and build his techniques. He hasn't had that time yet

His reaction speed is shockingly bad. He is so slow off the ball, I don't know if that can be fixed.

This game experience will help DLaw, he is raw and needs the full offseason and training camp to continue to learn and develop.

He has all the tools, I noticed in the Washington game two flash plays where he almost had sacks on RG3.

Hopefully, he can turn it up in the playoffs, we are going to need something out of him as we go forward.

I do not expect much right now but I certainly hope he can make some plays for us during our playoff push.

It is way too early to properly adjudicate what type of player DLaw will be in the future, so time will tell as usual.

He's going to be a good player, kid has a really good attitude to go along with strong measurables. Have some patience, it will come.

While I have a great disdain for the trainers inability to keep players healthy and all of the hamstring injuries the team has had over the years. The one positive sign is that they have shown to me that they can greatly transform a player's body to produce a much more effective player if the player buys into what they are doing. Leary, Wilcox and Escobar look much different physically and are better players for it. The same goes with other players like Harris, Crawford, Murray, Scandrick and others over the years (we were good at this under Juraczek as well).

So the one hope I have is that during the offseason that Lawrence will buy into their training regimen and as long as his hamstrings are healthy, he can completely transform himself over the offseason.

Don't forget Hanna who has become a pretty good blocker, much of that has to do with functional strength improvement.

He looks bigger and slower than he did at BSU.

Thinking back to the two seasons he played here, he seemed very well proportioned and cat-like.

Seeing him on the field for Dallas the past few games is strange. Almost appears to be a completely different player.
