Judging by the lack of interest the FO has shown in finding a replacement for Weaver I can only guess that he is playing how they want. And they would rather find a pure speed from the edge type of situational guy.

i think weaver is terrible. all i ever saw him do was engage the lineman in front of him. occupying space is nice if you don't have a lot of choice in the matter (see Okam) but i would expect to see a swim or spin move or something out of a nfl pro like weaver.

but....i suppose you're right about weaver playing how they want him to.
