I fell in love last year and nothing has changed. Elite get-off (better than Bosa's) with a mean streak to everything he does. You combine his first step with those long arms and all of a sudden you're an offensive tackle with two hammers in your chest and getting walked into your quarterback.

And when it's time for the real pass rushers to step up -- a coverage sack in a blow-out is not the same as a third down sack in a tight game -- he's relentless. When the game was on the line against Texas A&M this year, on the road, he was unblockable during the final drive. That's special.

+ Works his hands and should be the definition of what converting speed-to-power means
+ Move list is getting longer, and he sets up linemen with feints and counters over four quarters
+ Enjoys de-cleating blockers on running plays; seems as if he is punishing linemen for not letting him rush the passer

- Top-heavy and doesn't have the best bend around the corner, so he lets a few plays slip through his grasp
