that what you describe could be at least somewhat the look of being 'lost'... or is your 'lack of instincts' more of a NOT fatal but bad flaw that will be tough to overcome?
I"m not sure about lost. He goes the right directions, but then doesn't seem to be able to do anything special to finish when in range. I just think he doesn't have the radar or the toolkit. I think those might be fatal flaws if what you expect is a productive edge rusher. But he is athletic and energetic. People mention the Chiefs game, but if memory serves in that game he took good advantage of things when others disrupted the play. The INT was thrown right at him but then he had the wherewithal to snatch it. He doesn't strike me as a playmaker who makes things happen himself and for others.
These are all just impressions. I haven't studied the guy. But I think it's telling that since they drafted him, they have tried to add at least 3 more rushers (Fowler, Obo, Matthews...and who knows what they have this year with all those UDFAs).
