If all goes according to plan, BIlls’ first-round pick Shaq Lawson should be returning to the practice field today for the first time this season since the decision was made for him to undergo shoulder surgery early in the offseason.
While the pros and cons of that decision (as well as the pick itself) have been long debated, the debate might have gone a bit smoother if anybody realized what the man who was replacing him brought to the table.
Through seven games, Lorenzo Alexander has an NFL-leading eight sacks. Keep in mind that last year, Jerry Hughes and Mar Will (I’m writing half his name in honor of his continuing half-assed effort) led the team with five sacks.
