Smith and Bolton have both brought levels of physicality to their side of the ball we just haven't had in a long time. Ragland played a little like Bolton, just not as well.
Both of those guys will see opportunities to drill someone and take them. Oh sure, they could go at 80% and the rep would probably end the same way, but both those dudes some ready to deliver a message every snap.
They're just looking to dish out pain rather than simply finish the play off. The play where Bolton came in after a runner got held up earlier in the year then set both feet and drove into the guy's sternum is probably still my favorite play of the year.

These dude's don't play around out there.
Bolton is an absolute tackling machine. He didn't even start to begin the season yet he leads the team in tackles by 25 and TFL by 5. What a great rookie season he is having. [Reply]

Not to mention hes playing outside of where most think he should. He looked so natrual when Hitch was out. Remember when many of us thought Veach drafted high floor, hit a single type guys? Fuck this draft class has been a nice shot in the arm already and they are just getting their feet wet. [Reply]
