Do I wish Parsons had had another year in State College? Sure, without a doubt. But he is killing it in the NFL, and that is to PSU's benefit as well.

While many posters were knocking Oweh's performance last year and questioning his ability to contribute in the NFL based on his production, analysts were praising his on-field performance and citing it as evidence that he was more than just a great athlete. IIRC, the argument was that as Oweh's presence and performance opened things up for the rest of the defense, and one could see it in the team statistics when comparing when he was on and off the field.

As for Parsons, he seems to excel in whatever role Dallas gives him. One of the talking heads was talking about his sack ratio for the number of times he rushes the passer - he's in a class by himself. At the same time, because he can do so many other things exceptionally well and Dallas uses him in multiple roles, it's all but impossible to scheme against him. Making him an edge rusher most of the time would take that away.

We had defensive issues last year that were greater than Owehs sack total. We seemingly fixed the majority of them, and our defense improved. We still had some major breakdowns in all of our losses, but improvements were made year to year.

Parsons may be both the DROY and DPOY in the NFC in his first year in the NFL.

And PSU, Pry and CJF did not develop him?

The facts seem to say otherwise.
