How good is James Pearce Jr?

Well, before we bet the farm or start creating expectations based on one game... let's see what special plays other teams bring against our cheetah package, and let's see what other pass rush moves Pearce has developed beyond that simple feint. Lots of technique yet to be developed between here and the NFL.

But I sure wouldn't bet against him and Garner.

This is the first time I can recall in the message board era that a player I don’t know anything about has stepped onto the field and looked like an All-SEC caliber athlete. Some of you are probably like “how the heck have you not heard about this dude?” but I don’t follow recruiting like I used too and I wasn’t active on here during the offseason. I literally don’t know anything about him other than what I learned yesterday - and that is that he is a baller! He’s more than just a fast guy off the edge. I loved the sack he got with the inside move. When you have a guy that fast off the edge who can also beat you inside, you have a menace on your hands. Was he highly recruited or are some of you as surprised as me?

If He had a #1 jersey I'd have sworn that was Leonard Little coming off that edge. This Young Man is special.

I just saw Pearce's PFF numbers in another thread:

LEO James Pearce Jr. — 87.8 (24 plays)

So, yeah... maybe go ahead and bet the farm.

Thank you for having some level of chill. I agree. Kid couod be amazing but he’s got a long way to go. So far we know he can rush the passer in down and distances and a package all geared for mainly just that. He can pin his ears back and GO with a green light. That’s awesome! But that’s not ready to lay claim to a first round pick or be as good as Little. Lol
