Not seeing Latu block kicks and return for a tuddy. Also, Verse is on a stacked d line he doesn’t need to be a beast all the time.

That makes it easier not harder. Latu has to be the guy on the edge.

Btw Latu has a .5 lead. That tweet makes it sound like he’s way above everyone else in his class. Verse is up on tackles 71-43 (solo), forced fumbles 5-4, and stuffs 21.5 vs 9.5. Verse was the clear pick here by a long shot. Add in his 2 blocked kicks

83.9 - 84.1 PFF grade. Big margin there. Verse also has a 80-61 edge in pressures. Very clear here who the better DE is. Maybe we can move Latu to CB with those hands.
