I think he can be a really solid glue guy for us as he develops. But I don't see him being an elite edge. I agree that's where he tops out. He's more of a clean-up guy for the others. If he can be more consistent with his run defense, he can be a very useful player on our defense because of his incredible closing speed. But he won't be THE guy. That said, not every player is going to be elite. You need glue guys.Yeah.. High-cut athlete.. powerful with good straight ahead speed.. pretty stiff... definitely not an ILB.
Young looked at the start of the year like he might be able to take a step up from last year... but I don't think he really did. Nothing wrong with him.. he's just a guy who's going to max out at 8-10 sacks a year.
