Quote:And Beasley doesnt? I'm just unsure what the argument for Fowler really is. Seems like one giant strawman. Just because you watched him more doesn't mean other players don't pass the eye test.


With Beasley, there's empirical evidence of his consistency, explosiveness, and raw ability relative to his peers. The argument for Fowler over him seems to be a lot of homerism and 'feels'

May I ask if you have watched any tape on Fowler, or is your anti-homerism homerism just because he was a gator? Yes Beasley is a great college pass rusher and has the body to be an elite one in the NFL. If you really watch tape on Fowler he is very versatile and you can see the offense account for where he is at, just because the stats aren't world setting doesn't mean he didn't impact every single play. He keeps cut backs contained, he can go into coverage, he can pass rush, he runs side line to side line, he uses his hands to create leverage well, and he takes good angles. You could line him up anywhere on the DL and be disruptive, hell you can probably drop him into coverage on TE heavy formations.
