    Whoever is the coach next year needs to prioritize a true WR1 in the portal (similar to what we did getting Badger) and a legit edge rusher. Seems like the biggest weaknesses we will have next year

    Wait, wait, wait guys. I am not fat shaming Dez. He's 6' 5" 450lbs, easily the largest football player in football, including the NFL. He's crazy fast for a guy his size. I know the weight prevents him from playing every down, but he is playing more than he did last season. One more off season, he could be a nightmare for opposing offenses. I really want to see what another year will be like for him. But I will say if he did drop 50 lbs, his quickness would be scary. The kid can motor at 450, imagine how quick he'd be at 400. But losing weight is never easy, I have to stay on keto for life because I'll gain 100 lbs in the next year if I didn't. I love food a bit too much:) Keto doesn't make me hungry, doesn't make food a constant thought. It works for me.

    And Robinson and Boireau can't beat him out for playing time. Bad coaching evals or does he add something? Pup Howard specifically got a sack against Beck because 2 OL had to take on Dez and couldnt shift in time to stop Pup. That's something I think.

    I think he left more than a impression on Melvin.

    Howard hid behind Dez on his delayed blitz. Not sure about Dez commanding a double team as most of the game he did not.

    I get it now, you are just projecting.

    "I did it, why can't everyone else do it? If you can't you are weak, I am strong."

    I'm proud of you and your weight loss.

    Hope that makes you feel better so you don't have to degrade others for validation.
