Mafe is on the right track, he was good last year too, but this year he added pass rush to his run defense. I think Mada will be a star.I am slightly concerned about our pass rush relying on the young guys. Even with Clark, we probably need another proven edge rusher.

We have Mafe, Taylor, Hall, Clark with Bell and Smith as reserves on the PS. Sure, you can never have enough EDGE players but that is really talking overkill. We are one of the best pass rush teams in the league right now.
What the team really needs is Bobby 2.0. A stud MLB. Bobby's slowing down and Brooks is really best at WILL, free from the strains of calling plays and getting people set.
We're in the bottom 20 in pass rush if you remove the Giants game. We just lost our best pass rusher. And now we're relying on a rookie, an inconsistent starter, and a 30-year-old who has battled injuries for four straight seasons.We have Mafe, Taylor, Hall, Clark with Bell and Smith as reserves on the PS.

I think Hall is doing just fine. KJ said he had the talent to be rookie of the year. 7 games in he hasn't shown that to me but there is a lot of football to be played yet.Our soph edge Mafe Is doing very well, showing potential to be a star in the making. He is graded #2 among class of '22 by PFF

Our rookie Derick Hall either needs more snaps, or needs to show improvement to earn those snaps. He is #4 in his class.

Can Derick develop into another star?
