2 of the last 4 number one picks were SEC pass rushers who were notorious for taking off entire series at a time. Sometimes entire games.


Clowney also was the most gifted pass rusher of the last 10-15 years, maybe longer

I don't remember that same knock on Garrett. I remember his production versus elite talent being questioned along with his run defense.

With Key, it's not even taking plays off. Right now, he isn't a good football player. Even when he isn't "taking plays off", he isn't causing disruption. He doesn't have the same burst. He's out of shape, slow. He's simply not a good SEC level defensive player right now, which is a much bigger issue than taking plays off.

ETA: I don't know if Guice is checked out. I think he's legitimately banged up.

Yeah and he half-assed it for a season and went first overall. I'm not, and nor have I ever, said that Key was going first, but he was projected top 3. If he shows up at the combine and is anything close to what he was in 2016 he will go mid-1st, just like I said earlier. That's regardless of what his production is this season.
