Sucked up space at 320+ lbs while having the ability to move and move players in front of him.
It's one of the rarest skillsets in football. A big, strong, athletic NT is game changing for defenses.
At 320 lbs, he's at worst got the ability to eat of space in running situations. There aren't that many teams that have a guy capable of handling that combination of weight and strength one on one.
It really clears things up for the linebacker, even when the type of player can't penetrate. When that type of player can penetrate, you get some of the best defenses ever.

The NT in Aranda's scheme isn't the same role as the NT in say Saban's 3-4. Aranda's is a gap-attacking NT, Saban's is a space eating NT.
Then why the past 2 years Coach O has made a point to recruit 315lbs plus defense Tackles?
