I legit think it's just the common thought that black athletes tend to be more athletic and white guys are more technical. Well time to get with the times fellas...white guys can be fast and athletic and black guys can be super technical as well.
Bosa isn't on the level of Myles Garrett or Von Miller in terms of speed or explosiveness but he's plenty fast for a DE and this idea that he's going to just get engulfed by big OTs due to his short arms and lack of speed to beat them around the edge is silly.
He's not perfect. He's got his flaws but he's also young and like ANY prospect he can be coached up more and improve from his college days. It's like because he's already technically sound that people think he's got no room for improvement.
That's crazy talk. He can develop more moves, work on his strength and speed, work on his agility, flexibility and improve from his college play.
This is a great post Genus, well done.
have him tell AZ he won't play them. Dude wants to be a niner
. Based on Maddog's draft board, this year's draft is pretty simple, there are 3 top edge prospects in the top 6, all we need to do is to pick one. If we pick another DT and all 3 edge becomes a pro bowler, John Lynch will be forever remembered for missing an easy layup.
