“I thought going out to L.A. forced him to develop a deeper toolbox of counter moves, which is something he just never accomplished with the Bears for whatever reason. In my opinion, Donald is even better for Floyd to play alongside than Khalil Mack because A.D. is going to impact the interior protection schemes. A lot of times you’re going to have a man side and a zone side for protection and in most cases, they’re going to put the zone side to Donald to give the guard help. Now you have the man side sliding to Leonard and what that means is he’s going to get a one-on-one. If you can find those matchups for him, and that is what Staley did, you have him in the edge with a favorable matchup. Now, he has to go win against a tackle in a true one-on-one.
