Defensive Ends


pilot2011

Recommended Posts

DG is obviously trying build the most intimidating front 7 in the league, and I think the Defensive End position is shaping up to look a lot like the 07 Giants superbowl team. Strahan, Tuck, and Umenyiora had 9, 10, and 13 sacks for the season, with 20 more sacks from the rest of the team. 

 

Hardy, Johnson, and Ealy along with Hall/Addison make a damn good D-end group. Potentially great.

It is a great pickup based on value and foresight. Chances are CJ or Hardy will be let go next season so we already have the replacement in place. Got 1st round talent for a late 2nd round pick to fix a problem in 2015. 

 

Yes yes I know OT is a big problem but what do you do when there isn't one there that can beat out our current guys. Kinda pointless right.

Don't forget about Frank Alexander! He'll be working extra hard this season so these guys who play will have warm seats to plop on after smacking those pussies Brees and Ryan around.

I know we don't run a 3-4 (making this scenario a little different$, but I'm intrigued by the possibility of Alex Hall as a standup blitzing LB on passing downs coming in behind CJ. One thing I noticed watching Hall is that he is damn fast.

Maybe something like this...

Ealy - Hardy - Short - CJ ^ Hall

Have Hall line-up on the tight end and once the ball is snapped, bump the TE to slow him down and then have Kuechly rotate to pick him up. Hall will then follow CJ in what will likely lead to a sack for Hall because the QB was flushed out of the pocket by Ealy and Hardy.

Good luck defending that.

Just a thought, carry on.

    • You’re playing madden we’re talking real football stuff…. He does have you seen his special on internet he def thinks he’s getting paid 
    • Without the team having an identity kinda hard to predict what they value.  They either are really trying to build a balanced team, or preparing for another swing at qb if Bryce doesn’t pan out. Seems like we value the o line but the $ spent there has been underwhelming besides Lewis, you could say it’s because of injuries but still hasn’t been worth the investment. as already stated, the whole handling of Bryce young as a whole has been ass backwards, we spent the years we’re supposed to take advantage of having a qb with a lower cap hit, building the team up to be adequate. now It appears, key word appears, the saints have done it correctly, which is painful to even think about. Regardless, I hope the front office has paid attention to qb contracts recently, such as Tua, Kyler, Daniel jones(pre colts) and don’t settle for subpar qb play at franchise qb rates    
    • This is the flaw in your logic.  Cutting 3 of our best players will somehow move us from whatever we are to "compete". Even the most Young super fans are not predicting a ceiling above top 10-12, and that will not nearly cut it.  Someone will need to break the log jam of QBs getting nothing or North of 50. Our qb is at best a middle ground, lets hope it will be us that also manage to pay the worth at about 100 over 3 years.  And before you jump me, yes that is only of he improves.
