No idea how this turned into a Pettis thread, but it may as well, Attaochu looks garbage, runs straight ahead with no counter moves or burst. Pita T was much better with fewer reps against the same crappy opposition.

If Landry turns out awesome, then you can say you were right but you've been on the, "I wish they'd taken landry" train since early in day 2 of the draft.
I'm with you jd. Pettis is looking like a future stud- is it just me or does he seem to be a similar receiver to Odell?
Yep that's what I was telling my dad last week.
Reminds me of chad Johnson when he was good

I was surprised that Attaochu was playing SAM instead of DE, but apparently that was his position when he was playing good in San Diego 2014-16.
Not as if the team is swamped with talent there (Eli, Pita, Nzeocha).

In re-watching it, Attaochu did a good job setting the edge on runs.
His pass rush was just a straight (power?) rush with no attempt at all to dip or twist or anything else. It almost appeared as though he had been told to show nothing so there would be no film on him. I think we will see more moves than that when the games count.

I think he did one or two speed rushes from the Sam/big end position and got around the OT, but he was pushed out and in several plays the RB chip blocked him to slow him down. So, clearly the Texans were wary of him. Not so much Marsh or Pita though.

If he's playing the same way in the 4th preseason game then we worry far more.
Attaochu had knee surgery?
He's definitely been injured and had surgery in the off-season, I mightjave confused the injury with that of Cooper but I remember Attaochu did have an injury and he didn't take part the first week of pre-season

Oh OK...yeah, that was Cooper but yes, he's had a lot of nagging injuries including a groin right now.

Great, move him to SAM, cut Harold and bring back Elvis to rush off the strong side like last year in nickel. Attaochu can spell him as needed.

I think Attaochu showed some potential. I'd be interested to see how he does when we've got our 1st string D-Line out there eating up blockers. The guys got some talent for sure.

That may be an option. My point was that he showed enough to demonstrate he can be effective when all the pieces are in place. I just don't see Dumervil as an effective player anymore. Giving him a roster spot that could better be invested in a young player to develop does not make sense.
We will know a lot more after this next game when the 1s will see more PT.

I would agree I just don't see the young player on our roster worth developing. You can find plenty of guys who can hold up versus the run.
