He was OK when the defense was elite but if Hicks, Mack, Goldman etc aren't dominant then Floyd just gets exposed.

No he doesn't. He has rushed the passer 134 times on 179 drop backs. So he is rushing the passer on 75% of passing downs he has played. That is perfectly fine for your 2nd OLB in a 3-4. He simply has sucked balls doing it and there is no reason to increase his pass rush snaps until he proves he can actually provide pressure.
Out of 111 edge players, the dude is ranked 110 in terms of pass rush productivity as his rate is 1.6% ie he gets pressure on just 1.6% of rushes. Again that is 110 out of 111 players. Lynch gets pressure on 6% of his pass rushes which is 54th. That is in less snaps and basically means he gets pressure 3 times more than Floyd. Mack has been shit the past two games and yet still is 5th out of 110 with 9.6% so basically 5 times more productive than Floyd.
So Floyd has been straight garbage. Got nothing to do with how Fangio is using him.

Not sure. The hand has to have an effect.
But one thing's for sure... he better stop laying on the field with his giraffe legs spread out, like I've seen him do, because it's going to get stepped or fallen on, and he's going to get hurt.
Floyd needs to do plenty of his Gumby bends around the corner. Heck his 1st/2nd yrs I remember seeing him knock OL backward with a control push, he was stronger (then) than I thought he was. Not seeing it now.

I was never a fan of the Floyd pick. Granted I wanted Shaq Lawson and he hasn’t turned out great either but I always thought Floyd was too small to be an elite pass rusher like drafted him to be.

That entire draft is shit. The next best player drafted after Floyd was Will Fuller V at 21.

Keanu Neal at 17? Top 5 were all huge hits.

Did anyone hear Matt Miller's evaluation of Floyd on the Score today. He called him a bust and said Pace should try and trade him for a 3rd or a 4th!

maybe his broken hand has hurt his strength training a bit? I figure they have some workarounds, but can you really lift to your full potential with a broken hand? Aren't the hands really important in Dline vs Oline? I am not defending him... I barely know who he is... Turned off the bears for the last few years. LUL

No doubt, you're not going to punch the OL with your fractured hand. Probably not gonna swat the OL arms with that arm at all. Maybe he's better off with the club.

Wonder if Floyd can catch a ball? Good athletes have become pretty good TE's..

For a half against Green Bay/Kizer. Other than that, it's been Fangio getting outclassed by opposing offenses.

He’s 122 pounds, has a broken hand and CTE. Not a good combo.
