Devin Smith has been forgotten in all the other WR talk, and as you said Kip, if used right, he could be "that guy"...

And Quentin Coples, whom the Jets drafted with the pick after Irvin, also has 16.5 sacks. The Jets picked up his 5th year option already. Your point ?
PFF has Irvin rated the 11th best OLB in the league, out of 62 qualifying players. He's only played LB, at the HS, College, and Pro level....for 2 years. Signs point to more progression and that he hasn't hit his ceiling yet.
The thing is, McGruff has it right. That LBer position doesn't hold a ton of value in our defense. We can get similar production from a lot of guys. They won't have Irvin's athleticism, but they can still produce similar results. Now, if Irvin makes more impact plays next year, then we'll see.
Irvin only has 3 picks in his career. Obviously he got none while being the rotational DE as a rookie. Of the others, 1 was 35 yards down field, and the other 2 went for TD's. That's what he gives you when he's on.
