Just wondering what the knock on him is.
Converting a 4-3 DE to a 3-4 LB already has a high enough bust rate that I would like them at least pick a guy who has more than 1 year under his belt. That is all. He could be incredible, but I think he is too risky for the Jets who are stacked enough on D that they don't need to necessarily hit a homerun just need a good enough pass rusher. I would rather not have another flop. This is also the reason I want Kindle, other than being a Longhorn he played LB in college first than converted to DE (while still playing LB in certain formations). Easier transition.
