Unless Pollard put on 30lbs he shouldn't start over Williams and Crawford

Hamilton is using DTs differently that Bud in that he wants them to take up space and not shoot gaps.

Pollard is an excellent pass rusher, but I don't see him displacing a healthy Crawford in 1st and 2nd down situations.

EXPECTING a TRAFFIC JAM around here??? 😜😜😜😂😂😂 ** -- accfootballrules 04/05/2021 08:20AM

I believe Williams and Pollard will be the starters -- BFISH 04/05/2021 06:29AM

My guess is that FUGA will push into a starting role ** -- Smirnoff 04/08/2021 10:32AM

Pollard to DE could make sense depending on how our scheme is for DL -- WOJO 04/05/2021 2:54PM

Last year I would agree but heard he’s close to 290 now. ** -- BFISH 04/06/2021 09:31AM

FWIW some 4-3 DEs in the NFL are 290lbs, so it is possible -- VTHokie2000 04/06/2021 10:33AM

Yeah but those NFL DEs at 290 are 6’5” or taller and play in a 3-4 scheme. ** -- hokieblitz 04/08/2021 12:57AM

I think he’ll be a 3-4 DE at the next level ** -- BFISH 04/06/2021 11:23AM

Maybe so, but it might be wise of him to know how to play both schemes -- VTHokie2000 04/06/2021 11:53AM

Pollard @DE for 1st & 2nd down, move inside to rush the QB on 3rd? -- KCHokie2 04/05/2021 8:29PM

There are no guarantees in life but -- PF 04/04/2021 11:59PM

Crawford is probably best used as a 3rd DT and in pass situations when poss -- VTECHFAN 04/04/2021 11:10PM
