How would you guys feel about a six year, $34 million deal, similar to the one Buffalo NT Kyle Williams signed a couple years ago?

Lately he's hot and cold and sometimes they can... and sometimes they can't.

I know part of it is scheme as they have asked him to play more two gap in the 3-4 with means more run stuffing like a NT is suppose to do and less rushing up the field. But I think it's other stuff as well.

Sometimes I wonder if it might be better to have Pickett as the NT, the run clogging / stopping is PERFECT for him (when not pass rushing). Nether Raji nor Pickett are a good nor great fit at 3-4 DE. And Raji can still do his pass rush thing in the nickel and dime packages.

Seems like Raji's either getting worn down from over use or he's being played out of position. Dude doesn't complain though. I love BJ.
