Mo Wilkerson: 1 good game, 5 bad ones...

[lukkynumber13]

Firstly, I understand the Jets are quickly turning into a train wreck, and that rarely breeds IDP gold when it comes to defensive lineman, but is there anything more than just the fact that their team sucks right now? Does Wilkerson seem to be hurt, anything scheme-wise that concern you?

He has actually been playing extremely well.

He just hasn't had it show up on the stat sheet.

To my eye, having watched several of his games, he looks just as good as normal. I worry that he may become disinterested as the season drags on.

Ya I feel like he's been all around the ball but he just can't make the play first. Isn't he playing for a contract? I think/hope that keeps him motivated

Is swapped him for Everson Griffen. Not as high of a tackle floor, but playing on a better team with more pass rushers, should have higher ceiling for sacks

He got paid big right before the season and the deadline.

I disagree that his sack ceiling is higher than Griffen. I know he got 12.5 last seasons but I'm not sure that's going to be the standard. He plays a rounded game and did dominate last year, but I think specific to sacks that Griffen goes after it every play and in that D, with an also impressive DL beside him, has the higher ceiling there.

Neither are slouches though. I own both.

I meant that Griffen has the higher sack ceiling, while Mo W has the higher tackle floor

Oh ya that's right he did. I was thinking he got franchised for some reason.
