Man, he looked so much stronger and faster. The fear of increased drug testing probably limited his use which could be a big reason he's a shell of his former self now. Or maybe it's just the age and injuries that finally caught up with him. Either way, he belongs mostly inside now.

Who the hell is that, he doesn't look familiar. I'd love to see that guy on the Packers in '17.

Yeah he's nowhere near that fast or explosive now. We are paying for a 250lb guy who runs like an olympic sprinter and has 90 inch biceps and getting some guy who is a pretty good athlete and tries really hard.

The mistake of putting him inside has ruined his career. He wasn't any good in the middle and now the injuries are taking their toll.

No team would move an elite edge rusher inside in a 3-4 defense but -he wasn't doing anything outside, -we had some depth on the edge, and -our ILB were hot garbage. Him moving inside was the best move for him and the team and the mistake was putting him back as a full time edge rusher last year. He hasn't been good at beating tackles 1 on 1 since he got his big contract. Being inside is the only time he's actually been able to have a consistent impact.
