Kind of thought this was a possibility. Not really surprised but did think some team was going to give him enough money to get him. Curious what DG wanted him to take vs. what other teams offered, if it's about the same or if he decided to take less to stay here. Said when we released him that just because of that didn't mean CJ wouldn't come back. Getting released and checking the market is better than being forced into taking a pay cut. This is a pretty big move since we did need a veteran DE with him gone. Hope he can get fully healthy and return to form as he was not that great this past season. Still need help at the position for sure.

I like it. Word is he is one of the team leaders that everyone in the locker room respects. He's not the same player he was a few years ago, and he never will be, but he did start to play better towards the end of the season and who are we kidding we need experience and depth on the DL. Didn't feel good about Addison or draft pick starting with Kony.

    • It appears that he sees things differently than the QB and OC, so Cam's advice is spot on. It isn't about number of targets, it's about quality of targets. Trust and being on the same page. BY doesn't know how to anticipate what XL is doing. And XL doesn't like where BY is placing passes. One on one film study would go a long way. More for BY than XL though. He has to adjust to XL. I really don't think XL can adjust on the fly. 
    • If the team shows improvement, then he shouldn't be in danger of losing his job - even if the record doesn't reflect. This was a very young team (with a lot of new vet starters) that overperformed last season. Somebody's doing something right. Consistency is key with so much youth. And we're potentially looking at new starters at ILB and FS. Those are positions that take time to fully understand the defense. ILB calls the front 7. Safety calls the back 4. Injuries at WR and IOL killed the offense last season. Depth needs to be upgraded. Same with Edge. I think they would have won more games if Pat Jones doesn't go down early. Be smart with the roster and draft. Trade players for assets when it's time to pay them more than they're worth - yes, that includes BY if he doesn't make a pretty big jump. That's one of the many reasons Tillis is as important as anyone to the future of this team.
    • He had heart surgery a while back he looks Fraile I hope he is okay
