  1. Your missing why I made the Eric Foster reference. It's not a talent comparison, it's a fans reaction comparison. I know some want to believe that he was still a fit in the defense, but the truth is, you'd be hard pressed to find another 3-4 DE Nevis' size. He was very generously listed a 6'1" and the prototypical size for a 3-4 DE is at the very least 6'3". Those 2 inches may not seem like a big deal but he also had short arms so he didn't have the length to get his paws in the air to bat down throws through the passing lanes. Nevis is a good player and he'll make a 4-3 team happy, but he wasn't in our plans moving forward. It's just that simple. If the coaches thought he would be an effective 3-4 DE, then he would be here still.

  2. And, for more fun....
