    He's the only one who had a good game. Not his fault the rest of them dudes suxk. But think what you want dude. Since you're the expert. We'll see how he does wherever he ends up...

    Well he could still be there, but pretty much any really huge NT has to be double teamed.

    Looks like you have the memory of a goldfish. You said:

    And, I disproved your statement. IMO, in this day & age of football... While the DL remains important.. You build a defense around your LB's and Secondary. When you have some salary cap space you go out and sign a few pass rushers... ala Seattle.

    I know... That's why I stated waaayyyy back in this thread before you showed up that I would like the Texans to trade back (maybe twice) and get a boat load of picks and draft Nix...

    Bama rushed for 265 yards on a 5.9 YPC clip....

    No one had a good game for ND.

    3 LB's???

    Elvis was a DE in denver, Freeney was a DE in Indy... and Harrison was a 3-4 "LB".

    I guess Mario was a LB in Wade's defense too... LOLOLOL

    You are not as smart as you think you are.

    Texans did a sit down with the lazy dude from Minnesota @ the Senior Bowl, though he may be a late 1st rounder.

    Aww, I had such high hopes that you might be able to figure it out on your own.

    Don't worry, I'll help. Have you noticed what none of them are? Ah, that's right, none of them are DT's! Please tell me that you know the difference between a 3-4 OLB/4-3 DE and a DT. It really is like not knowing the difference between a fullback and a running back or the difference between a quarterback and a cornerback.

    Honestly, give up on ever commenting about the game of football if you don't know the positions.

    Yeah, you're talking about Ra'Shede Hageman. At 311 he's a pretty big kid and he has an amazing burst off the line, but I want a planetoid NT. Also, you're right he's probably a first round pick.

    Yes... You disproved my statement by using Payton Manning one of the greatest ever and I guess QBs like him are easy to find. GREAT JOB...!!!

    lol, coming from the guy who didn't know Louisville was in the Big East for Teddy's first two seasons...

    Anywho, I used those examples because everybody said those guys were "undersized".

    Yes, they play different positions (although Donald in a 3-4 would play DE, just as JJ).. But, it's the same old tired BS of a critic to make on a player.

    Your opinion is jaded by your arrogance. When you grow up you will realize you do not know everything.

    You conveniently did not bring up Russell Wilson... A QB who you routinely call "nothing special"... A QB who has one of the worst OL's in football. GREAT JOB!!!!!!!!

    It's not that I didn't know that, it's that it's not relevant, the Big East was no better than the AAC is when it comes to football.

    And they all play completely different positions so being "undersized" means something completely different because their job is completely different.

    Well you started out well, they do play different positions, but Donald is a DT in a 4-3 and a really really undersized NT in a 3-4, he's not a DE.

    I'm not arrogant, I'm just annoyed by your ignorance.

    If you look where they talk about the bad rush defense you will see what they said about Nix. You will also see in the article were they talk about how bad T'eo played.

    Nix was the only one who held his own. The rest of that defense was out matched.

    Russell hardly throws the ball... That's why I said previously that their are not many running backs like Lynch... But you win dude. Great job. You made your point...

    Donald is a 3-4 DE.

    Just as JJ Watt.

    What on earth are you babbling about?

    lol and you had no idea about Louisville being in the Big East. Your excuses and explanations are almost as rich as the blather you spit for Clowney.

    It's not about "winning"... It's about putting people like you in their place.

    I'm sure you get punked out a lot. #Bullied

    He doesn't throw a lot because his weapons are pure garbage.

    Not to mention he had 100 rushing attempts.

    Oh yea, he didn't throw that much but still rated #16 in Yards and #7 in QB Rating.

    Your argument sucks.
