Cowboys defensive coordinator Rod Marinelli is known for putting athletic defensive linemen in a position to succeed. One trait alone stands out above the rest for what he desires from defensive linemen: penetration. Hill won’t fit into every defense, but in Dallas, he’s the prototype. Marinelli allows his defensive linemen carte blanche to attack upfield and make plays.
WHEN AND WHERE DID ROD DO ALL THESE GREAT THINGS??
This kid is maliek Collins with less production in school. Marinelli did what with ty craw, Gregory, taco, Collins, tapper. D law was the only one and d law could have been a first round pick. Marinelli sucks, he should have been blown out after the rams game. Our d line still has one of the lower sack % in the leagueHK ... I think the article pointed toward scheme and not Marinelli doing "great things".
Marinelli is a pretty good defensive line coach, not great but good. He gets a lot out of the material he has (notwithstanding Charlton). I personally like an attacking defense line. This versus something like the Flex.
No he's not.This kid is maliek Collins with less production in school. Marinelli did what with ty craw, Gregory, taco, Collins, tapper.

Players dont run around in underwear when they play football. The combine measurements are there but the production was not there.athletically, hill is far better than malliek collins
the only thing collins is similar to hill is his size though hill has longer arms and larger hands.
i would say collins is hill's floor because he is injured half the time like collins
hill is far more explosive and scores better in the vertical jump than even the elite dt's like donald, whereas collins is worse than the elite dts except cox.
hill is also far more explosive in the broad jump than collins and is similar in score to donald.
hill also scores like the best score of the elite dts (donald) in the shuttle and collins is similar to the worse score of the elite dts (cox)
the only test that collins scored better than hill was in the cone.

If you just keep saying it, it becomes true.WHEN AND WHERE DID ROD DO ALL THESE GREAT THINGS??
When the coaches were there that liked him he only played half the snaps. The kid was a reach and I dont care about what an 0-16 coach thinks is good.you are drafting a quad B player, not a quad A player.
that is why he was not drafted in the top 10 like the others were.
if he had production like q williams or ed oliver, he may be drafted 1st or 2nd player overall.
he is that much bigger than q williams who was drafted 3rd overall.
his test scores are crazy, and it is silly to rank him like malliek when his scores blows maliek away.
maliek is his floor.
and remember malliek had a down year for his senior year.
that was because they changed system and his stats were down.
sounds familiar as the team regularly looks for quad-b players (talented but poor performance in college) that were put in a bad position which reduced their performance in college...
hill is exactly the type of player they are looking for.
super physical talent.
and he even played hard on the field.
he was on the field for half the snap.
when he was on the field, he was reportedly always playing hard.
the problem was he did not get along with the new set of coaches and they cut his playing time to less than 50%.
Lol it's like hearing Adam gase is a qb guru. It's a total fallacyIf you just keep saying it, it becomes true.

Hill is going to play a lot and early for the Cowboys. What Marinelli is going to ask him to do is exactly what he was made for. He will be contributing in game one.
This article is correct... Hill is an absolute perfect fit for this defense. He is going to be a difference maker for Dallas.
It will be apparent very quickly, IMO, that he was the right pick.
