Yes I’m overreacting, but isn’t what Dexy doing pretty unprecedented for someone in his position? He’s already a mid season All Pro and just seemed to have gotten BETTER this season after being paid
If his career keeps up like this over the next 5 years, (and I know that’s a BIG if), we have a pretty special player on our hands
Hopefully this team evolves to a point where we can win the SB with Dex on the team to help him establish his legacy as a Giant. HOF potential even
I know I’m overhyping but what do y’all think?
In terms of true NTs, Vince Wilfork and Ted Washington are the two that come to mind for me. Wilfork had 5 PBs and made 4 AP teams while playing 13 seasons and Washington had 4 PBs and 2 AP teams and somehow played 17 seasons. They were actual 0-tech, 2-gap guys though and there’s really not a place in the NFL today for guys who don’t have more versatility like Lawrence when he rushes the passer or slides out to 2-tech.
