DE/OLB Whitney Mercilus declares...

[VACowboy]

ha funny,

I think Melvin INgram looks and plays alot like Suggs does.

I think Whitney is to stiff and slow off the line to be a OLB.

As I posted in another thread, I've never seen Mercilus play, so all I have to go by is his numbers and what people write about him. And similarly to Merc's production and the stuff written about him, Suggs led the country in sacks his senior season, had long arms and was said to have an unbelievably quick first step (but then ran a "slow" 40 at the combine).

You've obviously seen him play, but what I've read says he gets off the line very quickly. He's doing SOMETHING very well to get to the QB. Ton of TFL. 9 FF is unreal. Kid is just a disruptive playmaker.

I agree with Inman: If a DC can't find a way to use a guy like that, mebbe he needs a new job.
