Bills tried to claim him when he was released and Rex was the guy who drafted him. He fits our 4-3 scheme much better and it would be a homecoming but Buffalo will almost certainly be in on him which could raise his price if we go after him.

Unrelated, but he really does have the grossest arm brand I have ever seen and no that's not a challenge to find one that's worse.

The answer is an astounding,  obvious,  undisputed YESSS

 

Got drafted high,  got paid alot,  got stuck in a 3-4 when hes a 4-3 DE.. 

Didnt produce,  got waived

 

Idk what happened with the Dolphins,  but they fugin suck. 

 

 

 

Bring him in on a fair deal and see what he can do.  We have a history of reviving players.   

 

Mitchell

Ginn

Oher

Coleman

 

 

If you say no bécause you think he sucks youre resting on your laurels,  leaving stones unturned,  and not wishing for due dilligance

 

Yesss

Huge bust. And to think, according to Rivera, we really liked him as a DT when he came out.

But why has he been a bust?

Is he really just not that good, or is has it been poor system fit?

I haven't followed him closely enough to know, but that's the question I'd be asking myself if I were gonna take a look at him.

To be fair, nobody expected much of Ted Ginn when he signed here either.

Jets drafted Sheldon Richardson, tried to make Coples a 3-4 OLB when he's really a 4-3 DE. 

According to some guy on Reddit.

    • Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out. 
    • Hiring Shula & his Cam save us playbook.
    • I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
