Milanos Milano Posted August 22, 2021 Posted August 22, 2021 (edited) He’s been playing so well, he deserves his own thread. I know it’s just preseason, but he disrupts plays every single snap. He has great instincts and leverage. Rouuuuuuuuuuuuse! A sack a game with limited snaps. Very impressive. Edited August 22, 2021 by IronMaidenBills 5 1 2 Quote
MWK Posted August 22, 2021 Posted August 22, 2021 Pumped about him. Hopefully he can keep it going. Wonder how many sacks he winds up with. It would be amazing if he could become a 10+ sack guy 3 Quote

Today was so impressive simply for the fact that he was disruptive almost every play. It was very noticeable. 5 minutes ago, MWK said: Pumped about him. Hopefully he can keep it going.

Sewell is no slouch, and today he dominated an average at best line. Just excellent instincts. 1 1 Quote

Embrace it bud, he is… Those arms are pure weapons. Now if we can get him to put on 10 lbs. of muscle, he could be a serious threat to any opposing offense. The other guy I’m having so much fun watching is AJ. He looks very powerful out there. Edited August 22, 2021 by machine gun kelly 3 4 3 Quote

Couldn't agree more with both statements. Epenesa looks MUCH quicker and more athletic, while still seeming to pack a punch. Rousseau's arms just seem to keep the tackle from being able to lock onto him, and he's just so long and strong. Both guys were premier edge rushers in college, but fell in the draft due to lackluster combine numbers. Looks like the Bills might be the beneficiaries. This young look d-line is fun to watch! 7 4 Quote

Matt_In_NH Posted August 22, 2021 Posted August 22, 2021 Agreed. Curious to see how much the pass rush improves. Quote
Orlando Buffalo Posted August 22, 2021 Posted August 22, 2021 I am Groot!! He looked good today. His natural talent is impressive Quote
costrovs Posted August 22, 2021 Posted August 22, 2021 2nd most sacks(15.5) behind Chase Young(16.5) in college football in 2019. 6'7" 266 pounds. The kids a beast. Between him and AJ, this could end up being 2, very, VERY good DE's. 9 Quote

fergie's ire Posted August 22, 2021 Posted August 22, 2021 One of my favorite plays that does not show up on a stat line was early in the game. Dalton felt the rush coming and bailed out to his right. Rousseau saw Dalton and also peeled out and took a position directly in front of Dalton. He's so big that his presence clearly bothered Dalton. I know that Mahomes is just a TAD more mobile than Dalton, but still. I think if we need someone to just disrupt Mahomes enough to help the secondary...with his size and instincts, I think Rousseau could do that. 6 1 1 Quote

Even if he can’t get to you, he’s deep enough to cause major issues and he can contain which is huge. 1 Quote

Ire (couldn’t call you Fergs as we already have one of those guys) just think about eventually how many balls he’s going to bat down. Remember when Watt in his prime did that to EJ and Watt singlehandedly (no pun intended, well maybe a little) turned the game around on us for a TD. Quote

BigAl2526 Posted August 22, 2021 Posted August 22, 2021 I'm excited about his natural talent, but I think he needs to work on developing a more polished arsenal of pass rush moves. 2 2 Quote

I think he will over time, but it’s impressive he’s able to beat people on power and length alone. He’s instinctive enough to peel off at the right moments. His arms will just take you in. I know he isn’t Bruce, but his arm take downs remind me so much of it. Edited August 22, 2021 by IronMaidenBills 1 Quote
