I can't believe how lazy he is. He plays about 30% of the plays. He can't set the edge in the run game. He doesn't get home in the pass game. Gets blown off the line by WR's. I was hoping he would be more. Mostly a name and reputation. That's about all.

He has averaged 58% of snaps since arriving here.

Percentage of snaps his last 4 games (excluding the Rams since we rested a bunch of players) :

Detroit 78%
GB 67%
Washington 57%
Baltimore 46%

He's played way better than any other DE other than Bosa.

I would certainly like to keep him. 2nd year under Kocurek should be impressive. But for me, the most important re-signing is Feliciano. And it shouldn't be expensive. Plenty of work this year for Lynch, Marathe and the others. And inevitably some painful losses.

I love Feliciano in the run game but he's been getting abused in pass protection the last two games.

We need to use high draft picks to replace the entire right side then keep Feliciano as a capable backup.

Not making excuses for him, is there any chance he's hurt at all? He didn't get a regular season bye week, maybe he's fighting through some injury?

Two things:

1) Beal was active, but did he play? I feel like a little more rotation would help him stay fresh. Seems to get gassed easily. Young, Bosa, Gregory seem to be the only true DE getting snaps. I think I might've even seen Givens at DE some.. I think that needs to change. Maybe even call up Austin Bryant.

2) Young seemed better against the run lining up on the RT side.

Beal played 2 defensive snaps.
