He's a great athlete but his overall play isn't all that. He doesn't play the run all that well. Constantly overpursues or loses contain. He can't beat double teams and most of his pressure comes when he has a free shot at the QB. His play is elevated by those around him. Playing in Wade Phillips' scheme doesn't hurt either. If the price is right, I'd love to get him just because of his potential and athletic ability. I wouldn't pay top dollar though.
I think the Texans would be smart to let him go or franchise/trade him in the off-season and go with Brooks Read and Whitney Mercilus as their two rush LB's next season. They have a lot of talent in the front 7.
