Would be nice if Upshaw spent the offseason with a pass rush specialist. He's already as good as JJ was/is against the run and in coverage. If we can milk some pressures out him that 2nd round pick on Upshaw when the world thought he couldn't be disruptive at the NFL level will look brilliant.

Thing I never got about Upshaw was when he was pass rushing there were times when his burst off the line was, simply put, better than Suggs or Kruger's. But for every time he had that burst there was about 45 other times when he kind of slowly went in and then tried to bullrush. I don't know if coaches never let him pin his ears back or what the issue was, but he seemed hesitant at times.
