Has anyone heard anything on him since pads were on?

 

I think this kid could be a sick joker pass rusher

People have said how quick he's looked blowing past his guy in shorts.  People like @Jeremy Igo have said "just wait until they get pads on and OL can make contact"

Well now is that time. How's he looked?

Marquis Haynes = Nickel & Dime package rusher (depth) & ST's at this early stage in his career; however I have high hopes. 

I'm hoping around the mid way point or so he'll see some time, SPEED off the edge is something we've needed for a while -- if he and Hall develop this season into next we may not be as far off at defensive end as we might feel. Addision and Horton would likely still be here next season, plus a potential draft pick to continue to add young talent. 

We shall see.

4-3 DE is deep next year. Glad we avoided DE this year. My only change in our draft is that I would have tried like heck to trade up in the mid 30s (Indy) with Norwell’s comp and something else to move up from Donte Jackson to get Hernandez (35) or Daniels (39). We’d be set at G this year and with Daniels we’d have our C when Kalil retires. Also, if Moton flashes we could use the DW money for Funchess.

 

You lookin at Clemson's DEs again? I know Nick Bosa(Ohio State) is supposed to be great and Ed Oliver(Houston) but he is a DT even though he gets pressure.

    • Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out. 
    • Hiring Shula & his Cam save us playbook.
    • I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
