I think to me, Bailey is the kind of guy that for me, I'm going to say,
I do genuinely believe that he can end up having a 14-sack season.
It's just going to have to be on another roster.
I'm just not willing to wager that all the things that could potentially be an issue, right?
You're kind of lighter in the frame, especially in the lower body.
You don't have a lot of plus-plus reps.
in terms of setting edges and stopping the run.
And the fact that his best production did come after he transferred and playing on a loaded defense that has several pros, right?
I think there are probably going to be four or five pros coming out of their front seven alone, right?
Which tells you a lot.
That's really the reason why they were a playoff team at Texas Tech this past year.
I don't necessarily know if you can say, hey, David Bailey showed up and he made that defense that as much as him in conjunction with a lot of other guys on that defense.
ended up turning them into a playoff quality team.
So yeah, I would say the way that my top 10 is listed is exactly how I would have them ranked as edge rushers, where Reese and Bane are close, and then Bailey is maybe a half stride behind.
Yes, 100%.
again, is difference-making talent, especially in a draft where you have to ask a lot of questions about, you know, where are we going to get access to difference-making talent if we don't do it in the first round?
And I think you're really going to struggle, especially, you know, if you're looking for an edge, if you ideally would be looking for an edge rusher, if you'd ideally be looking for a corner, I think you're really going to struggle trying to stretch to get some of the corners that you might be interested in or, you know, some of the edge rushers.
I don't think that there are certain teams that just don't need them.
I would say that New York doesn't need them.
Had they traded Kayvon Thibodeau, I do think that that maybe opens up the door to say, hey, we can bring another guy in, even though this is kind of duplicitous because we do have Abdul Carter.
