He was winning off the edge at a higher rate than anyone else in the country, so yes.


& Solomon Thomas was the most disruptive guy in college when he played at Stanford, right?

There are similarities...

The above draft profile is from NFL.com not some guy on his home computer. The strengths are similar to what a lot of you guys are saying about Bosa. And yes, it says he can rush from the edge with great hands. These two guys are more similar then you think

But they aren't. Nothing similar about them from a technique standpoint. Bosa is well advanced and has demonstrated how he can win at the next level repeatedly. Thomas was a guy with good athleticism that you hoped could develop the necessary pass rush technique. He had barely played on the edge in college. Bosa played and dominated on the edge.

Two vastly different prospects.
I just watched Thomas' best game (Bowl game vs NC) and ...

Okay then I have zero clue as to what you are looking at or think you are seeing. Thomas and Bosa aren't remotely similar. One was a college DT that was very raw but with good athleticism for the position. Another is a pure edge rusher with advanced NFL level technical ability.

It's simple, I don't see what you see.

I've seen you tell others that it is okay if someone has a different opinion then they do. It's even stated in the rules, so why the trolling accusation?

No, no he wasn't. He was primarily an interior player whose stock blew up after his Combine and people hoped that his athleticism would help him become something special.

Bosa has been the top prospect in this draft class for about two years now. You know what you're getting from him. He's about as polished as any edge rusher gets coming out of college. He's shown that he can win in all the ways needed at the next level. He's a plug and play edge.

Because its a ridiculous assertion to make. You won't find one person that is semi-credible who will agree with that. Bosa and Thomas are about as alike as peanut butter and okra, tartar sauce and baklava, a Suzuki and a Maserati. They are football players, they are defensive linemen, that is about it.

Denying Bosa's talent is a desperate attempt at being different

I think it's fair to question any draft pick will be a sure thing. You just never know. But what bosa has put on tape is extremely impressive and so you'd expect better odds that he will succeed in the nfl

Listen to that video and see what they were saying about Thomas, sound familiar?

Read his draft bio, sound familiar?

He also lined up on the edge and was drafted as an edge rusher, sound familiar?

The good thing is, we will see as Bosa will be drafted into the NFL. I just hope it's not with our team.

He missed almost a full year of college football, what has he put on tape that say's 2nd overall pick?

The 17.5 sacks?

Josh Allen almost had more then that this past season alone!

I'm going to guess GD doesn't watch college football

Nick Bosa is the best DE to come out in a while. Forget the stats and just watch him play. It speaks for itself.

LOL

I watch a ton of college football, only I was unable to watch Bosa this year because he wasn't playing college football.

Do you watch College football? Were you aware that Bosa missed almost the entire season this year?

No. Thomas was a guy who rarely played on the edge in college and was mostly a DT. He was very raw and the main knock on him was that nobody kneww what his NFL position would be. Bosa is a pure edge with all the technical ability and skill to be a difference maker at the next level. Nobody is wondering where Bosa will fit at the next level, it is as obvious as it with was with his brother.
