I don't know anything about him but, we've just signed defensive end Kiante Anderson, an undrafted rookie out of East Carolina, waiving defensive end Karter Schult (I didn't know him either). Kiante Anderson is a 6-foot-3, 260-pounder, spent most of training camp with the Buccaneers before being waived. The North Carolina native had 4.5 sacks and forced two fumbles at ECU last season. I don't know if he's just a camp body or competition for DE's or maybe provide some good depth. Draft Scout has his 40 time at 4.8...

What yall think...

Are we gonna sign everyone who played at collegiate level and grew up in the Carolinas?

this is a pretty common thing because local scouts for teams can usually scout local talent easier.

Ecu was absolutely terrible last season. They won 3 games. Every unit sucked. I’m surprised anyone on that team is getting a look.

As an ECU fan, they were pretty awful, especially the defense. They were last in just about every defensive category. Plus, Kiante was the guy that got most of the sacks.

He was a walk-on that ended up earning a scholarship through sheer determination and hard work.  One of the few bright spots on the roster the past couple seasons, especially on defense.

He's a good college DE, by any measure.  Big, quick, strong, and has a high football IQ.  Doesn't do stupid things.  

I don't expect him to make the team... but I would never count Kiante out, honestly.

Trevon Brown is going to be one of the better WR's in the next NFL draft.  No matter how badly we may suck, we keep turning out NFL wide receivers.  He is a legit NFL deep threat WR with size and wins the 50/50 balls every time.

6'2" 215lbs - Had 1,069 receiving yards and 7 TD's last season.  He is the only guy that teams bracket or double, and he still produces.

From last year, a few highlight games:

@ West Virginia (103 yards, 1 TD)

Virginia Tech (107 yards, 1 TD)

@ Houston (141 yards, 2 TD)

Cincinnati (270 yards, 2 TD)

ECU football is a joke, and it’s a toss up between them and UNC-Charlotte as the worst program in the state - and I would probably lean towards EZU since their entire athletic program is being audited for improper use of funds. 

Happy for the kid that he will get to live out his dream for about 2 weeks but if he makes the team then we are a lot worse off than I thought.

      Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
