Panthers have 3 healthy DE left ..street signing time

[Matthias]

This team is so dependent on the D-line getting to the passer and containing the run.  If management is serious about winning, they need to bring in a capable DE pronto.

[Mr. Scot]

Who's the kid that was signed by the chargers last year from our practice squad from Stanford?  Is he still around?  White guy.

 

Thomas Keiser.  He's currently playing for the Cardinals.

 

As irony would have it though...

 

Thomas Keiser arrested on misdemeanor battery charge

 

That happened last New year's Eve.

[La Pantera]

Where is this Quinton Coples trade talk coming from???

[KillerKat]

Yes, but with Johnson ailing we have only three healthy defensive ends.

 

I don't know that I wanna go into a game with just that.

Well I was thinking Brockel beforehand. Might go ahead and put him on IR. We have BWill and Ogbanana at FB now until Tolbert comes back.

I don't know but as a UNC fan I can say 100% I don't want him unless it is for dirt cheap. The guy NEVER impressed me

An IR move somewhere makes sense if it comes to that.

 

[WOW!!]

Where is this Quinton Coples trade talk coming from???

I don't know he sucks on the Jets. Why would we trade a asset for him when he ain't worth poo.

[Matthias]

Coples had 5.5 sacks his rookie year.  That's better than both Hardy and CJ their rookie year, and is better than most rookie years on average.  So far he has a sack and a forced fumble with the Jets this year, but we all know his natural position is DE.  I'm telling yall based on the numbers, this could be another Greg Olsen steal of a trade. 

 

With all that said, who else is worthy of bringing in to help this D-line?  Continue to suck up front, or bring in a potentially good talent for a 3rd or 4th round draft pick in a year we will get multiple compensatory 3rd and 4th round picks.  This is an easy decision to make people.

[Mr. Scot]

Craig Roh or Alex Hall

 

Most likely choice.

 

Not much in the free agent pool.

 

 

Might have to start playing KK Short at DE

 

Might be an option.

I know I will probably get flamed for this but why not get Michael Sam? If he is still on the cowboys practice squad we could sign him and give him a chance with his former college teammate Ealy.

Do you really see the Jets trading a former 1st Rd pick, 20 Gamez into his career? Let alone for a 3rd-4th Rd pick!?

CJ and Hardy were 3rd and 6th round picks not 2nd round pluck like Coples and didn't get half the snaps he did. Playing behind Peppers, Brayton and 1st round pick E Brown.

Maybe show the snap count before you try and make this a point.

Yes, just like the Bears did with Olsen because he didn't fit their system.  It's the same with Coples.  I would even throw in Norman so it would seem like the Jets are getting the better deal.  There's no question that the Jets aren't in love with Coples at linebacker.  They take him off the field at times, so they would do this deal.

Looking at the stats, Coples started 2 games his rookie year but played in all 16.  Hardy played in 15 games, but didn't start any.  Johnson started 2 games his rookie year and played 3. (Assuming he got hurt.  The following year he played 15 games and got 6 sacks)  You're right about this overall, but Coples still had an good year.
