Anyone who’s gone up against Aaron Donald at any point in their career knows how insanely difficult he was to block. It didn’t matter if it was Year 1 or Year 10, Donald was one of the most unstoppable players of his generation.
Steve Avila got a taste of that firsthand last season when he was tasked with blocking Donald during practice. As a rookie, Avila quickly learned how big of a challenge that was, and that’s with getting help from his center and left tackle.
So when an “analyst” on Twitter foolishly said Donald wasn’t as good as he thinks he was, Avila couldn’t help but step in and put Mr. Harrison P. Kent IV in his place.
It’s hard to tell if Kent is just a parody account and trolling for engagement, but regardless, Avila’s response was absolutely perfect.
“Wow. Very narcissistic… Donald was not the player he thinks he was. Effective? Yes. Generational? No, not close.” https://t.co/6eqDEsOnN1 pic.twitter.com/wB0Xgiyczi

There’s no coming back from that savage roasting by Avila. Might as well shut down the account and find a new line of work.
