Just think how much better our defensive would be if we played Parker at Linebacker this year in a 4-3 style defense.

We're not seeing the speed to reach the QB from his defensive end position. He would need to be even faster to play linebacker.

Who is faster? Woodazz or Parker. I would put my money on Parker. Put Woodazz on the weak side, Sammy in the middle and Parker on the strong side.

That's kind of irrelevant. They don't have anybody better than him to play it defensive end.

We needed TJP at DE more than we needed him at OLB.
Very much like the Xavier Thomas situation, where Clemson always used him at DE, whereas the NFL uses XT at OLB.

not a mlb, strong side, or weak side. In a typical 3-4 scheme he's beat suited for OLB position where he would likely flourish rushing the passer but usually the OLB's in most 3-4 schemes have to drop into coverage from time to time....and as deadbeat lazy as he's been this year I doubt he'd be up to the task-

His problem is concentration on football and effort, not position change. He has had a lot on his mind this Fall.

He's had a bad year. This doesn't come as a surprise to anyone.

Mel Kiper had prime Deshaun Watson as a 2nd-round QB. Nothing he ever says is credible to me anymore. Wrong more often than right.
His predictions are analogically similar to gambling. Hit and miss. But overall, the whole thing isn’t good.

find any NFL, CFB, or draft site that doesn't consider him the clear-cut #1 DT available in 2026-
