Why do you say that?  He's been a decent back end of rotation. Good run stopper.  You can't always sign pro-bowlers.

 

 

Decent back end of the rotation is Addison that actually produces, this guy got released and stashed on the Practice Squad for a reason.  He's not good depth, because he gets pushed back when pass rushing.  Run stopping is cool, but meh.  As a DE, that does nothing anymore.

I disagree but that's ok.  Addison is a legit pass rushing specialist.  When you carry 9 D-lineman on gameday, you gotta have some guys that can play the run too. If they replace him with someone better, cool.  But he's cheap and can contribute.

He doesn't contribute much at all, but cheap he is, and I hope they find somebody better in free agency.

2 sacks in 2013 and 3 in 2014 (more than Delaire had this year and with fewer big leads), as well as a forced fumble in the playoffs last year, on the snaps that a DE #4/5 gets isn't too bad. He's not starter material and didn't get PT this year due to superior depth/suspensions, but not the worst DE they've had recently by any means either.

      Bryce Young Haters..

      One of his handful of good games... If he can ever get to a consistently high level, then he'd change minds. As it is... Meh.

      As I watch Darnold tonight...

      By kungfoodude · Posted

      People are also jumping to the conclusion that Darnold would have figured it out here. I very much disagree. He needed a place where he could be a backup for a while with no pressure. So all the pining over him was pointless. Highly unlikely he would do anything but continue to fail had he stayed here. The one that got away was Baker. He was not as bad as he seemed here. He was always a good player but we were a two bit, middle of the road college program grasping at straws. Had we invested the time in Baker that we have done for Bryce, history would have been quite a bit different. To what end, who knows? Doesn't matter. There are a million hindsight stories that are very unkind to this franchise. There is no one that is more significant than the other. It is what it is.

      He’s a serviceable starter for us that doesn’t cost much. The reason he doesn’t cost much is that he has flaws, one of which appears to be catching the ball.  It would be good to have a better corner opposite JC but he’s not at the top of the list when it comes to people we need to upgrade.
