I'd have trouble picking one over another.

Agree to disagree. And it isn't close.

We designed the 2017 defense around Roquan. Essentially, we fed him. And he ate well.

Since then, we haven't "fed" anyone. We are a no name defense. Our best athletes spike to open up opportunities for the guy next to him. We zone blitz and put 280 pound defensive ends into shallow zones or man on the running back.

It was different for Ro. Watch the Georgia Tech game again and tell me that the defense didn't specifically feature him to be the playmaker.

to play devil's advocate, it's a lot easier to not single out your MLB as the main guy when you have jordan davis, devonte wyatt, jalen carter, and travon walker as the DL as opposed to trent thompson, john atkins, and daquan hawkins. Not hating on those guys at all, just saying we kinda needed roquan to step up adn be more of a do-everythign guy whereas nakobe had a video game lineup in front of him so he wasn't forced to do as much.
