My post had nothing to do with yesterday. I clearly stated that this thread was 3rd from the bottom on the 1st page.

A 1st round pick who is actually playing damn near falling to the 2nd page on this forum.

Right, totally a proper way to gauge a player

You didn't want to listen to the proper gauge.

Says the guy who is on record as saying he's just as qualified as pro scouts and FO guys 🤣

Not quite what I said, but I'm familiar with your work.

I'll just let this thread drift into the abyss.

Mykel is a beast of a stud player and a bright spot to this year. But he's not a natural pass rusher. He's not twitchy fast and doesn't have natural pass rush moves. He's big, long, super powerful. He's brute strong for his size. Williams is awesome setting the edge with amazing power and he can move inside on pass rush downs to give push from the inside. He does give push on the pocket and collapse it some. Which is great. But he's not Bosa or Huff coming around the corner and never was and never will be. So he's not bad or worth criticism IMO. Just he is what he is. A beast edge setter who can also move inside to collapse the pocket on passing downs. That's super useful. Just not as much with Bosa out. Now you won't appreciate him. Even unfairly criticize him.

Not criticizing the player but difinitely worth questioning using #11 overall on a base end that's not a great pass rusher

That has been my issue. He's good at what he's good at but.... what you said.

I'm not sure about #11 overall. But he's really great at what he does and we needed that. He definitely improves us. He for sure is not a natural pass rusher. That was known coming out and now too.

He might not look great every game, but he's learning on the fly on how to deal with grown ass alphas. He's got the tools and talent, he and Saleh gonna keep f'king around until they find out. He'll eventually get there, but a lot of us in here think that sh!t will just happen in a couple weeks

He's strong, but boy he's slow

He absolutely destroyed his man. Hands were on the shoulder pads. Not a penalty. Not illegal hands to the face. But he dominated and destroyed the blocker so badly driving him violently backwards the refs though it must be a foul. Not realizing the brute strength of Mykel Williams. Same thing as Stout. He gets penalized when he makes the spectacular play. It's really getting old.

These referee crews need to be fined for bad calls just like players. That dlineman falling on Mac Jones with all his weight and not getting flagged was BS

Yeah I agree. The Mykel one really made me mad though. Because he's such a powerful, superior athlete. He just absolutely dominated and destroyed his man CLEANLY.
