Yeah that was supposed to be "Crush and Rush" Jerry Ball and Michael Dean Perry.. Belichick sorely underused them both..I still think Bill B is big dumb asshole.

They do if I can help it...

Reminds me of Jerry Ball, 3 time pro-bowler with Detroit.

Not a name I would have ever come up with... but now that you mention it...

He may not be ready to wear half shirts yet; but that guy got all the way down to 339 pounds preparing for the predraft workouts. He weighed about 355 lbs on a lot of those videos he was tackling guys with much better footspeed than his. The reality that he was pretty damn good on 3rd downs - reminds us you don't judge a book by it's cover especially when he sported good enough endurance to never leave the field of play.

Tour had a good point that he takes great angles. The piggybacks I can offer that is a well prepared and instinctive football player begins every play with unparalleled vision. And when he lines up every play closest to where the snap is - he's usually first to see which way the QB opens at the snap. Last but not least, this guy that plays every single down - never quits on a play to the extent where he tackles RBs cutting back or QBs trying to scramble inside of text book containment at the dept of QB dropback. Oh yeah, we want us some of that!

Again, hung up on titles. This defense will show multiple fronts based on down, distance and opponent.

Ok coach. Ready ? BREAK !

@gumby73 said:

Looks like he has plenty of padding around the gut already.....

@poeticg said:

Damn he would look good in a Ravens uniform!

No...JK lol

@gumby73 said:

Picture this Monster padded up. Yea It's Miller Time for Miller..

Believe Von is already using that one. Has it tattooed on his chest. Plus, offensive linemen don't get any glory.

I'll tee 'em up... you knock 'em out of the park.

With a ten-yard penalty in the bank... anything else is gravy.

Too derivative for a good nickname.

violence....being big...

really inspiring - I think he is going to be a big factor in the Browns lockerroom being lit up this coming

Cal, I really enjoyed that video man. I liked what he said about the opportunity 4 minutes into the video.

Well said Mike!

For those worried about his weight today and moving forward - the pre-draft strength and conditioning had his weight down as far 339 from previous weigh-ins of 355. I'll stop short of saying celebration of his 12th overall status at an all you can eat buffet may threaten that at least temporarily.

There's some clever contract incentives that can make him richer man if he maintains an optimal playing weight. I'm confident our NFL strength and conditioning program and this guy's work ethic will work well in tandem. A lot of the guys that head these programs up have PhDs in Ex Phys so they're not roided up meatheads. Outside of the workouts, they do a great job of assisting players with nutritional needs. I had an invaluable experience volunteering 2 morning a week to Tampa Bay's offseason strength and Conditioning program in 1997-98 BC (Before Cellphones).

Guys that show up to these offseason progam completely out of shape like Phil Taylor can blow out a pec in the very first week of the program. Work ethic isn't something you can flip on and off like a light switch or one will be far too happy sucking oxygen after every 2 plays for the rest of his career. It's strange typing this but hopefully a rookie like Danny Shelton can teach a veteran like Phil Taylor how to prepare himself for an ability to play EVERY down. Being a warrior starts in the inner-chest in my opinion. My favorite part of football is that that there's always going to be work ethic guys like a Wayne Chrebet WINNING over fan-bases from the Me-Shawn Johnsons showing up feeling entitled. The reason this happens is because they've prepared themselves forever for the opportunity to be the go-to guy with a drive/game on the line on 3rd downs. The difference I see between Shelton and Taylor is one guy needs oxygen on 3rd downs while the other wants to be the guy his teams counts on him to be. I'm ecstatic Farmer and staff identified exactly what was missing on the apex of our defense.
