Twitch off the edge is important now.

2 years ago it was foundational edge setting two way defensive ends.

Get your shit together and quit listening to shitty coaches Mike.

Lol. Mayock signed Mayowa in ‘19 then ditched him for Nassib. Perhaps he thought Key was ready to roll? Now we have Ngakoue/Koonce, at one extreme, and Ferrell/Nassib, at the other, with Crosby in the middle. Best of all worlds! Lol

Pretty sure Mike still thinks a two way edge setting DE is the way to go. Took a swing at nabbing one with Cleopatra. Remember when Cleo would be the guy that would never lead the league in sacks but would reliably put up 8-10 sacks a year ? Swing and a miss.

Let's face it, twitchy edge rushers have always had great value on 3rd downs and in passing situations, but they're not nearly quite as valuable when they can't stop the run, especially on downs when the offense is just as likely to run as it is to pass.

Two way DEs will always be the way to go, problem is finding them.

Never understood why we dumped Mayowa and grossly overpaid for Nassib. Mayowa can give you 6-7 sacks as a situational pass rusher for a whole lot less $$

There was something weird going on behind the scenes there I think. IIRC Mayowa started putting out some cryptic tweets after he was a healthy scratch for a game. Probably saw Guenther for the the BS coach he was and wanted no part of it.

Nassib followed suit with a healthy scratch the following year. Fuck you Gruden for being loyal to a friend in a business about players and winning, which requires buy in and good coaching.
 
We were ready to run this guy out of town. Does coaching matter that much?
