Campbell totally oversets and Turner blows by him. Looking forward to him almost as much as JJ.

He was stuck behind a couple of players that knew the system and were playing well. Also, Flores runs a complex system. Turner was playing great the last 7 weeks of the season.

2nd overall defensive player in the draft got mothballed because he didn't steal snaps from an All-Pro Van Ginkel and Pro Bowler Greenard and/or the back up Jones ( who had 7? sacks and just signed a 2 year 20 million dollar UFA deal).......

...That's crazy shit, but that's what happened.

I hope he goes off this year

He’s got every tool in the toolbox. The bend he displays is amazing. His close is lightning quick. He can one arm stab and control OTs. Speed to power for days. 

Ceiling is Derrick Thomas.

That's what I thought when we drafted him...

Now he's just gotta do it, no pressure.

His bend is actually better than Thomas. His bend is as good as anyone. With minimal pressure from the middle he’s making a lot of plays.
