Pick an edge rusher


Verge

Recommended Posts

We need a pass rusher to develop for the future, an Dodd really intrigues me.  But I have a feeling that he'll be a riser who moves ahead of our draft position.  If not him, then whoever is the best pass rusher who can also play the run available at 30 (don't want another pass rusher only like Addison).

But even with a high draft pick, we need another vet, whether that's CJ on an extension or pay cut or someone like Mario Williams who's getting up there in age, but likely still has a couple of years left in him.

Double dip in the draft again. Shilique Calhoun and Emmanuel Ogbah in the draft. Add a vet DE for $3 mil or less per season. DE rotation is set and they can get Ealy more snaps by using him in both the DE and DT rotations.

 

 

 

 

 

I would take either or to be quite honest. I would prefer Calhoun, cuz I am a State homer, and I think he is an exceptional football player. Plus, he has that football mentality. He just gets it. Which is why I think he could have an impact as a rookie. He plays the run exceptionally well, and he defiantly can get after the QB.

 

Just once, ok, maybe for the second time, we need to get us a State kid. I mean hellz, I've been a fan since the get go. Is it too much to ask for Gman to draft Calhoun for me? I don't think it's a reach at 30. The kid is a monster. And like I said. Because of his smarts and work ethic. I believe he will make an impact rather quickly.

 

C'mon Gman. Do it for daddy.

 

Oh, and thanks for the video.

Chris Long, DE, 30 

Mario Williams, DE, 31

Jason Pierre Paul, DE, 27

Robert Ayers Jr., DE, 30

Kevin Dodd, DE, 23

 

I feel like one way or another, we end up with one of these dudes, which one would you all prefer? I feel like Ayers is the most sensible as he matches the scheme and has just as much value as any of the others, though Chris Long would seem to fill that Jared Allen spot. 

 

What say you?

Out of that list, Mario. I think like Jared, him playing out of position hurt his production but he still got a lot left in the tank. Seeing how he played in a 4-3 scheme alongside Dareus and Kyle Williams in 2014, he put up numbers. I expect the same if he signs with CAR. I'd say Star/KK > Kyle/Dareus.

    • lol, that second part is quite literally one of the dumbest things ever. Having or not having guaranteed contracts has absolutely nothing to do with how much these billionaires have to pay.  Because there is a hard cap and a minimum cap spend requirement, and teams either use their cap or roll it over to use it all the next year, so the owners have to pay the same amount of money in the end no matter what. Having fully guaranteed contracts in the NFL would only hurt salary cap management, and thus would end up screwing over the team and its fan base when teams kiss on signings as they take up cap room that is needed to improve the roster. Look at the Browns with Watson, they gave him the fully guaranteed deal and all it’s doing is sucking up massive cap space now.  If they hadn’t done that, the owner would still be paying the same amount of money each year as that cap space would still be used elsewhere. If you want to argue for fully guaranteed contracts because the players deserve it, that’s an entirely different argument and a fair one to discuss.  But anyone against fully guaranteed deals isn’t doing it to argue for the billionaire owners.

    • Ryabkin could be the steal of the draft, he was a Top 10 pick heading into last season and had a rough year.  Lots of GMs passed on him because of that and his workouts. Pick has really high upside and Svech should be able to translate Rod tearing his arse a new one for making dumb plays since Svech has had several years of it.  🤣😂
