I don’t get the Davis love at all, he’s the Tillery of the DBs. Very glad to see Samuels Jr come along so quickly.

meanwhile for 10 years our IDL has been blown out of the A gap like a sockpuppet in a tornado. I still don’t believe a stout fire hydrant immovable NT that always requires a double team is not a valuable addition to reducing a team from mutidimensional to pass-necessary. Stop drafting 6’5”+ 295 lb DL and draft me one NT that is 6’1” 320 strong and quick. A guy OGs cannot get under the pads, a guy that will push the Center into the QB’s lap if he doesnt get help. This - i will forever want. Then surround him with those nimble twitch guys.
Tillery’s problem is he’s too tall for ideal IDL, that is why he loses leverage too often despite otherwise above-normal physical traits. He has to have perfect technique every play and hope the OL player has a lapse to win battles because OL at the NFL level are too smart and too good. Once they get under his pads, he’s done.
Look at how tall Donald is for reference. Or Jamal Williams, our last great NT. Their height is not a coincidence (Says amateur hack scout dmac)

That type of NT does require a double in the run game but only single in passpro (as long as the IOL assigned has an anchor). We have that dude in Linval Joseph.
Tillery has been the main culprit in run defense as far as the IDL goes. What above normal physical traits does he have?
We had issues with K9 in his run fits and key missed tackles. Kyzir has had 2 key MTKL.
MDavis has been atrocious in his outside contain run fits. He’s allowed 4 - 10+ yard runs, in 2 games, by failing to do his job.
JWall at 6’3’‘ had a height advantage?
Jamal was 6’3’’ / 350# with special movement skills for a man that size.
We don’t get any pass rush from our IDL now, with the added bonus they don’t stop the run. Dedicating one NT out of 11 to anchor the rush defense is a good move, and pull him off the field on 3rd and long. The best defenses often seem to have a guy like that smack in the middle of the DL“Less is more? NO NO NO - MORE is MORE!”

2022 draft has some guys I like for us…
Travis Davis, Jordan Davis, John Ridgeway*, Phidarian Mathis
