Positives:

Has vines for arms to fend off blockers. Active hands as a pass rusher. Generally locates the ball. Pursues hard and shows good closing speed. Good effort production. Solid personal and football character.

Negatives:

Has tweener traits. Athletic ability, speed and suddenness are just adequate. Needs to develop wider variety of counters. Does not bend naturally and shows some stiffness in his lower body — limited flexibility affects his finishing ability. Does not play with strength or leverage at the point of attack. Not explosive or powerful. Limited upside.

Summary:

Competitive, productive, high-motor college defensive end lacking hand-in the-dirt anchor strength and stand-up fluidity. Long arms and effort-based production give him a chance to be a backup.

      Barnwell - Ranking WR, TE, RB Groups in NFL

      I guess i have to add I am curious as well as to what Tepper has done that shows he has backed off.  Thats not a hard ask.  I guess I am in a holding pattern of what to believe until the wheels come off again.  Not saying thats going to happen but there is more data out there to suggest it will vs a turn around.

      [Mina Kimes Show] The offensive trends taking over the NFL

      By Basbear · Posted

      Running or being able to run the ball allows you to control the game. You control the pace, score, and time of possession. It does also allow your defense to rest and when they do get on the field, go 100%. That in turn forces the opponents offense not have 3 and outs. That's huge pressure, if the other team is just running the ball while having 14 plays drives.  If you are able to get 3.5 yards a carry and mix in smoke routes that gain similar while allowing the clock to run......you control the game.  Deal is nearly all rules changes in the 25 years have helped the passing part. Young folks and gambling folk want to see 37-45 scores. Those 10-16 score teams are poison and toxic, I don't care personally just win. I can enjoy a 6-3 slug-out just the same as 50-42.  There just too many factors to go over. Running used to be important for playoff ball, cause it was before half the league got domes. Running the ball in snow, cold, wet conditions was the path. Like NE played in that awful division each for 20 years during the Dynasty run, they normally had the #1 seed and home field. Thats why bill always had a #1 defense and enough offense to win. It was a huge advantage.    I have thought you need to pass in order to score, THEN you must be able to run the ball with 7minutes remaining to keep the other teams offense off the field. But if you're setup to pass and get no experience during the game to try rushing plays, who knows what you can do. So I feel you truly need a balanced attack, that's the key and main goal. Run for first downs went you need too and pass for TDs when you need too.
