wtfskins Posted December 10, 2019 Share Posted December 10, 2019 Why is this guy not playing more? He would be a pro bowler on any other team in the NFL. Teams run right at Sweat cause he can’t handle the run. But guess who can handle the run? Ryan Anderson can. Both Ryan’s should be starting over Sweat. Sweat should be a situational player. Pass rush downs and he should get Ryan’s work load while Ryan gets Sweats duties. I do like Sweat but dude gets pushed back every run play. If he don't start on the Dline then turn him into the hardest hitting meanest MLB in the league that stuffs runs and clogs up holes. What a waste of good talent on the bench something this organization is known for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoggingGod Posted December 10, 2019 Share Posted December 10, 2019 I’m sorry, what? He’s useless as a pass rusher and mediocre as a run stopper. That’s why he’s not playing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just look at our track record. If not put him at MLB then. Sweat gets abused in the run game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont know if i agree with the OP that he's a probowler, but he's developing into a decent OLB I'm trying to find the video of it, it ironically popped up this morning, where he diagnosed a pulling guard, attacked him, then shoved him aside and made the tackle in the backfield.

Darrell Green Fan Posted December 10, 2019 Share Posted December 10, 2019 I really liked this pick at the time. But this is now year 3 and he has shown little. Playing time is earned in this game, he's had plenty of chances to earn more time but his production simply has not warranted it. How anyone can claim that he is a potential Pro Bowl player given his lack of production is just so bizarre. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warhead36 Posted December 10, 2019 Share Posted December 10, 2019 Pro Bowler...lolol yeah okay. He's an okay run stopper but has no real upside. Guys like Anderson can be found every year in the mid to late rounds. See Cole Holcomb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dicksogj Posted December 10, 2019 Share Posted December 10, 2019 In some ways he reminds me of Moreau - occasional very good or even great plays but then basically disappears during the rest of the game. You have to look at how a player does during the entire game - not just on a few select plays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
method man Posted December 10, 2019 Share Posted December 10, 2019 The reason I hated this pick is because this guy had bottom quartile physical tools for the position if you look at the combine numbers. He was overdrafted by a few rounds (pundits called this out at the time) and this is playing out here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wtfskins Posted December 12, 2019 Author Share Posted December 12, 2019 Don’t believe in players that’s fine this guy is good you watch him flourish on another team just like everyone else we let go.

However with Moreau & some of the other DBs this season it is more a matter of seeing the backs of their jerseys when they are being beat or them missing tackles. However he & others are improving & are certainly better than Norman. I didn't mean literally disappearing but rather not having a positive impact. I will focus a little more on him to see if he is indeed locking down on receivers during the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vanguard Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 I was wrong about him and I’m happy to admit it. People were talking about how we need to keep him on the team and I would ask why? He plays hardest late in the game. Is he a starter? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see him as a viable 3-4 starter. He's not explosive enough to be a good pass rusher at OLB and not big enough to be a starting ILB. In a 4-3 he could be a good run stopping and dirty work doing OLB. He'll never be a star but guys like him make careers as 7-10 year starters all over the NFL.

skinny21 Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 Kudos to Anderson this game, he made some serious plays. I’m not letting this really change my tune on him though as Lane Johnson was out. He’s a solid player, particularly as a rotational guy, but we need legit pass rushers ahead of him. I hope Sweat gets there and I’d love to land Young. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wtfskins Posted December 15, 2019 Author Share Posted December 15, 2019 Yea I’ve been hard on Sweat and I believe Sweat could be a good player. But to me Sweat is a situational player let him rest to come in and make a big difference. But Anderson needs to play all the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conn Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 Chase Young instantly makes Sweat and Anderson more dangerous. And the entire stacked interior DL we have. And the rest of the D. He's a force multiplier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at the honey badger still playing in the NFL we drafted corners ahead of that guy. But we cut Collins he is not worth the money. No more free agency splashes he is not making 90 million dollar plays out there no one is except Lamar Jackson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
