How He Wins

- Usage fit: Three-down pressure creator within multiple front pass rush. - Film translation comes from rush sequencing: first-step threat, hand counters, and rush-to-contain discipline by game state. - Model + film note: developmental contributor profile; produces pressure through get-off and counters. Seed rank 172 indicates current market confidence with developmental upside still available.

Primary Concerns

- EDGE projection risk is driven by first-step burst, bend/cornering, and rush-plan finish rate. - Total hurry volume (3.0) leaves less evidence of sustained rush disruption. - Role stress test: value is strongest in three-down pressure creator; projection gets thinner if usage expands too far outside that lane early.
