CJ is the NFL DE Prototype for Forcing Fumbles

[JawnyBlaze]

According to Walter:

Forcing Fumbles:

NFL prototype: Charles Johnson, Panthers

1. Damontre Moore
   
   
2. Alex Okafor
   
   
3. Barkevious Mingo
   
   
4. Dion Jordan
   
   
5. Bjoern Werner
   
   
6. Sam Montgomery
   
   
7. Margus Hunt
   
   
8. Ezekiel Ansah
   

Thought it was nice he got some impartial recognition.

Also the prototype in clothes-lining Matt "i look like a penis" Ryan.

Barkevious Mingo has to have some of the worst stats I've ever seen for a guy who seems so highly regarded as a prospect. That and he's only 6-4, 240?

Vernon Gholston comes to mind.

Wow, we got some good recognition yeah!

I love CJ and Hardy both, because there's no finesse to their game. Nothing but straight power moves. Reminds me of how Michael Strahan was.

[Montsta]

Hardy caught a lot of flak from folks on here when he spent all offseason last year bulking up to ~300 lbs.

Then he has his best year as a pro. fug some finesse moves, just outmuscle the man in front of you Kraken!

[Zithers]

how is cj the prototype... he's never even forced fumbles on a consistent basis in his career. then this season he popped 7.

shoulda used... idk... peppers or osi or something.

For the first time in a long time I'm not worried about our DEs and our pass rush. I am confident CJ, Hardy, and Alexander will blossom into a great trio this next season. I'm hoping we add a big body in the middle in the first our second round this year and we can run packages on passing downs getting 4 good pushers on the field at once.

[LinvilleGorge]

Agreed. My biggest concern is being able to pay Hardy long term.

Drafting Alexander was a great move. Early in the year, it looked like he was pushing to take Hardy's starting spot and that lit a fire under the Kracken's ass.

Mingo can definitely play.. he has the atleticism of a DB and the size of a LB

I'll eat crow on that one

Kind of like what they were saying about Gholston. Sorry, the stats just don't back the hype. I wouldn't touch a workout warrior in the top half of the first.

I don't think people were afraid of him adding a few pounds of muscle. They didn't want that muscle to come at the detriment of his speed. It did seem to work out nicely though.

same. going into last season i didn't want him starting.
